There’s always room for DVDs
Posted on April 27th, 2009 @ 19:19

In my dream home, I’m gonna have a nook just like this, because I am likely to chalk up that many DVDs in my lifetime.

Because I can’t wait to get my own place
Posted on April 12th, 2009 @ 20:40

I love this studio in so many ways.

First, there is that great use of space. The bed, tucked behind the couch, manages to maintain a sense of privacy. And despite its tiny size (it’s only 340 sq ft!), it doesn’t look cramped at all. Then, there’s the colour scheme, which completely soothes the weary soul after a hard day’s work. Now, the furniture – the couch is fuss-free, yet inviting; the Verner Panton chairs and the Marcel Breuer Wassily armchair add a touch of classic modernity without being too cliche; the vertical bookshelf lends an air of carelessness in an otherwise put-together room; the ladder epitomises a childhood fantasy-turned-reality where we can climb up and down without having to worry about any librarian yelling at us. And THAT MAP. As far as wall decals go, that has got to be my absolute favourite. To me, it symbolises the free-spirited nature that yearns to travel the world, allowing you to continue dreaming about visiting off-beat cities and quaint towns.

I’d totally move into this apartment in a heartbeat.

Fat Pig Chocolate

I’m a huge sucker for packaging. Tell me you’re not, and chances are, I won’t quite believe you. After all, it’s the first thing we see, and while not always accurately representative, it gives us an idea of what’s inside. So yes, I won’t ever hesitate to choose the prettier option. That way, I’d at least have the comfort of knowing that it looked good.

When I saw these adorable chocolates, I couldn’t help but squeal (lame pun, I know). The clean design and font choice was perfect for such a simple pleasure, and the copy, complete with an “Oink!” on each square totally makes it fun. The logo too, adds to the whole quirkiness, with the little wiggly tail sticking out of the “g”. Gimme a Fat Pig now!

Carriage House Meets Gypsy Caravan

I can honestly say I’ve never seen a more eclectic house. And while there’s a bit too much going on for me, it still manages to be really charming, and somehow, all the different elements fit. Also, I LOVE how that couch looks. Don’t you just wanna crawl up to it and snuggle under the furry blue throw?
