This ‘wallpaper’ caught my attention on the Daedal  Review.  Wallpaper with a built-in shelf from Kredema Design. 

Off the Wall is a 3-dimensional wallpaper. The concept consists of two elements – wallpaper and 3-dimensional shapes of acrylic sheets forming shelves and lamp shades.

The 3-dimensional shape is maintained over the wallpaper and set against the wall with the same wallpaper. The result is that the wallpaper seems to come alive, bulges and rolls up, and forms to shape shelves and lamp shades.

The shelves are sold together with specially designed wallpapers with lots of choice of exciting designs.

Certainly different!  It would be lovely if the wallpaper was on the back too wouldn’t it, rather than seeing the white on the back.  What do you think?

Our March product of the month is stylish and tall!!

Tall, glass, twisted candlesticks – can be purchased singly or as a pair.  Understated elegance I think and would be nice as a Mother’s Day gift too.

I came across Farm21 from Lisnavagh estate (not far from here actually) at 100% Design last September and loved everything they had there.  I meant to post about the fabulous creations before now but better late than ever. Here’s a few of my favourites:

A Limited Edition Tri-Part Rye Straw Screen €2,500 and here it is in a close-up. What a beautiful specimen of functional art.

The Bed of Roses table is also available in a limited edition of 20.  €950

And I think this Straw Cube II with internal lighting is amazing.  A beautiful piece of art and can be used either as a lamp or a side table.

‘farm21 concentrates on re-presenting nature through modern materials and technology, as functional forms. Via acrylics and resins, delicate & transient organic materials are ‘frozen’ between life and decay, and through obsessive scale and concentration they highlight the process of nature in our increasingly urban world.’

Another Mother’s Day gift idea.  It is less than 2 weeks to Mother’s Day and if you wish to treat your mum, how about this for something different?  Sammy, the sausage dog cushion – made with Yukari Sweeney Design fabrics. 

Use him as a cushion on the sofa or on a bedroom chair or have him guard your bed during the day! Lovable and a cushion – what more could a mum want?!

Experimenting with Photoshop!!  Here’s a collage showing a selection of products in our online shop.
