Bathrooms I’ll Never Have

Not because I’m a pessimist, but mostly because I don’t think I can ever afford a house lavish or opulent enough to have bathrooms like these. Although… using concrete as a feature on the walls and floors… They can’t possibly cost much, right? And I’m pretty sure I can find a mirror that looks like that. Somewhere.

Paris vs New York

I’m always looking at prints. I’m not sure why; it’s not as though I have an empty wall where I can display all the art that I want. Huh. Note to self: have an art wall in my future home.

For now, I’m really loving this series featuring a pop art comparison between quintessentially Parisian and New York icons. It’s a nice homage to two very beautiful and well-loved cities, and I love that many of these pieces have the right amount of quirk. I’d actually really love to own a couple of these. If I could just find a space to put them…

Here are my favourites:

Lyric Records

Spotted over at Design*Sponge (arguably one of the best Design sites on the web – or at least one of my favourites), these lyric records by Quiet Boy Studio is the perfect blend of two of my biggest passions – music and typography. Seriously, how ridiculously gorgeous are these?!

Hand painted on an LP, they’re US$75.00 each and you can get a custom one for the same price. I’d really, really love to get one (or two, or three!) but can’t for the life of me decide on what lyrics I want! :(

Any ideas?
