It’s a table, It’s a desk, It’s a door!

I found this really cool recycled desk made by Manoteca. It’s handmade and consist of a desk, 3 recycled rawhide pockets and a wood drawer.

“Manoteca is a little house in a park, a lab where old and abandoned things are hosted among with recycled materials, reinvented and reassembled.”

If closed, It can function as a table. If open, It’s a desk with holders. Reinventing furniture so it finds a new function is a great idea! For more reinvented furnitures look at Manoteca‘s homepage!

Light fixtures, a weakness of mine!

If you have been following my blog for a while now, you most likely know that I love lamps. It´s my weakness. So when I came across some of the lamps made by APPARATUS how can I not write about them!?! I must say that these lamps are truly amazing, I love every detail!

The lamps are made by APPARATUS, they make collections of light fixtures and consist of designer Gabriel Hendifar and partner Jeremy Anderson.

“Aged brass, painted glass, and found objects are assembled by hand to create eclectic, utilitarian fixtures. The result is a warm glow that is at once time-worn and thoroughly modern.

The collection includes one-of-a-kind fixtures constructed from salvaged components as well as pieces made entirely from contemporary materials. “

What about a tree on the wall?

 

 

I have always found it fascinating with trees on the wall. I honestly don´t know why it´s fascinating, but I find it calming with some nature elements indoors. (Even though it´s wallpaper)

So tell me what do you think?

 This one is my favorite! The contrast against the white wall is really strong and powerful! I also found these pictures, which uses the tree not only as decor, but in an original “functional” way: 

This last one, is also pretty cool!
