The Many Shapes of Moroso's T Vertigo Coffee Table
Furniture Fashion has reviewed several items from the Moroso modern furniture collection, and we have always been impressed with the creativity of the designers they commission. The T Vertigo coffee table from designers Laura Aquili and Ergian Alberg is no exception. The simple yet ornate shape is as durable as good looking, comprised of thermoformed Corian in your choice of red, black and white, this coffee table will definitely be a conversation piece. I especially like the way the T Vertigo offers several dimension from the top and side view creating opposing angles and a nice flow of focal points.
spacify’s bathroom vanitiestags: bathroom
Bathrooms are in many ways the only true sanctuaries in a home, where privacy is sacred–which is perhaps why we all appreciate them when they are not only sanitary but stylish. In this article we focus on Spacify’s line-up of vanities - that is, the humble and unassuming sink. Above: the Sidonia Vanity looks like something out of a 50s diner with its cherry red finish, but the contrasting white trim and curvaceous design betray its Italian roots. Beyond its rather exuberant design is perhaps one of the more commonly overlooked necessities in a bathroom: storage. Two cavernous cabinets underneath each sink and triple drawers down the middle provide ample room.
Those looking for a more streamlined design will likely prefer the Lucia Bath Vanity. Its flat, dual row design appeals to more refined sensibilities, but simultaneously doubles shelf space in the process. This is a wide vanity, spanning over 6 feet. Tasteful chrome accents on the drawer pulls and plumbing deliver just enough highlights without overwhelming.
If you’re faced with close quarters, the Lucilla model features a small footprint while still providing storage space. The 37″ vanity includes a two-level medicine cabinet with Mirror and light, as well as a svelte wall unit with a frosted glass door.
The Atlantic vanity appears to be relatively unassuming at first glance - its rectangular frame is covered with sandblasted glass panels, while an extra-wide, sloping sink spans its entire top. The entire unit literally comes to life when you purchase an interior lighting kit, which infuses the sink with a diffuse glow. This vanity is definitely a conversation piece which makes guided tours to the bathroom for guests a must.
For pure simplicity, the Simple Series is the obvious choice. The cabinets are minimalist and Beverly Hills: Block / Leather Sofa Setsy, punctuated only by a trough around its perimeter. Available in Wenge or Light Oak and topped with glass, this is my favorite for its contemporary and utilitarian design.
Perhaps most homely of the bunch is the Letizia Vanity with its rather mundane, rectangular design. Barring the requisite drawer pulls, the surface of this cabinet is entirely smooth; even the thin glass vanity top keeps a low profile. The functional cabinet is inoffensive yet still stylish, and when outfitted in Black or White will likely stand the test of time.

The Legends of Modern Furniture by Alivar
What are some of the characteristics of great design? For me it is the ability to make a powerful statement with a minimal amount of clutter and material, relying on the basics. Alivar's philosophy states "each element intrinsically reflects the spirit of the home, making a harmonious whole. The pure lines enhance the quality of the materials used, in a minimalist yet highly expressive style". This belief has been brought to life in one of the most stunning collections of modern furniture I have seen. Their philosophy also embraces form and function, in which every detail matters, and adds value. The Alivar Museum collection which pays tribute to the modern masters like Mies Van der Rohe, and Marcel Breuer offers the perfect combination to the latest Alivar styles for a timeless look spanning over 80 years. The entire line includes modern furniture for every part of your décor allowing a seem less flow from room to room.

jam stool and chairtags: kitchen/dining
ORANGE IS what initially got our attention, but the Jam Stool and Chair’s simple, modern design is what keeps us captivated. The seats are curved without being ostentatious, although the perforated seatbacks and orange-on-white color scheme are anything but subtle. Still, the seats are predominantly white and clean, with thin, chromed legs designed to minimize visual weight: these are fundamentally minimalist chairs, perfect for those who still crave the Occasional flash and pizzazz.
