Awesome Glass Lamps and Accessories from Holmegaard
Long before the table lamp came onto the scene, Holmegaard Glassworks of Denmark was mastering the art of fine glass making with blessings of the Danish Queen. Today the Holmegaard tradition continues and has involved some of Denmark's best known artists. I really like the "One" table lamp by designer Maria Berntsen which is also available in a hanging light and comes in opal white or clear. Holmegaard covers many areas including stemware, vases, bowls, candle holders as well as seasonal items for Christmas and Easter. 60W / E27

7 Different Design Ideas When Planning Your Kitchen Sink Area
The kitchen sink is a very important functional area in the design of any home. The fact is that there are many different types of sink shapes and the ac companying countertop area on the market today. This article serves to show 7 different designs for the kitchen sink area. One difference regarding the kitchen versus other areas of your home is the way that we use this room.

How To Demolish A Skyscraper One Floor At A Time
What you are going to see in this post, is one of those rare things in life that leaves you truly speechless, and one more reason to say that technology in these days has no limits. When it comes to tearing down buildings, I’m pretty sure that you think at an implosion ( BTW - here is a cool one ), but today you’ll see a new demolition method that starts on the bottom floor. The process is called daruma-otoshi after a Japanese game that makes players take the bottom parts of a column using a hammer without disturbing the rest of the parts above.
Japanese construction firm Kajima Corporation is using this innovative new skyscraper demolition method to dismantle a pair of old company buildings in Tokyo. Compared to blowing it up, this method saves time and space, pollutes the air less, makes material recycling easier, I think that in big cities this method would be very useful and it’s obviously a lot less dusty than a traditional demo.
Viaduct Shiraz Sofa
I would like to know what do you think about this new style of sofa, with a high back. I think that this sofa sometimes could make a place more intimate and transform open plan rooms into stylish living spaces. To bad that this high back sofa is just for big spaces. Available in a charcoal grey or pristine white, Shiraz is then accented with a range cushions in natural colours. Designed by P.Mainzer and F.Ebrahimi the Shiraz sofa from Viaduct makes a cosy seating area without being enclosed and claustraphobic. - via - Beverly Hills: Trend / Leather Sofa Setsir
Satellite Dish that Blends in with your Brickwork
The Sqish is a camouflaged receiver which blends in with its surroundings. This idea would be successful years ago when rooftop antennas were much more common, when they dotted the roofs of neighborhoods and quickly became an eyesore. As cable become more prevalent, the number of rooftop antennas began to decline. With satellite TV becoming very popular now days, we’ve come full circle and the rooftops are once again covered with contraptions, this time satellite dishes. The Sqish comes in white firstly, but can be totally camoflaged to match your wall by using a digital photograph and a sticker which can be obtained at purchase (£25), making it impossible to see from a distance.
The camouflage receiver may also prove useful to households whose satellite dishes regularly become home to nesting birds, the activities of which can interfere with the quality of the TV signal. The Sqish costs £149 and an extra £25 for the matt- finish camouflage sticker, and if you are interested you can find more about from here.
