Today’s Dream Home - El Encanto En Punta Mita

When I saw this estate for the first time I’ve fall in love with her immediately.This is a real dream home, as you can see beautiful ocean view, a lot of space, and surrounded by nature beauty.

This two-story, four-bedroom home has a plunge pool, marble flooring, and sliding glass doors and high ceilings for an open feel.

Pendant Light Fixture from Ivalo

From Ivalo Lighting comes "Aliante", a pendant light designed from nautical inspiration. Aliante's shape is much like a seafaring vessel whether a ship or submarine. The pendant light comes in 4' or 5', and because of its length can cover a wide surface area of lighting with a slim design. I like the fact it has a simple overall visual appeal with a touch of style built in as this will not overpower a room where you want to showcase other décor items. Product: here.

The Lobster Chair

The Lobster Chair has been designed by the danish designfirm LUND & PAARMANN, which was founded by Oluf Lund and Eva Paarmann. Lobster is produced in Denmark in materials carefully chosen to match the requirements of the design, the function and the construction. The shell is laminated, bend wood with a walnut veneer at the back. Inside the shell the designers have used Pantera foam, as it is very durable and probably the least damaging foam regarding our environment. The swivel base is chrome-plated steel. The fabrics and the leather we are using for Lobster are of the very best quality. - Via - Designspotter

The Bookcase Table - MOCO

The italian furniture company MOCO designed Ptolomeo ( picture 2 ) in 2004. Four years later, Ex libris is born, a table obviously inspired by Ptolomeo, with the wisest legs in the world. When designing a table you don’t have to many options, that’s why almost all tables are the same, but this design is something really innovative. - Via - kostasvoyatzis “A new way of designing a table is a difficult and fascinating challenge that has been resolved ironically with a light and elegant top, like the page in a book, yet to be discovered, that finds support in overlapping books.Table with metal legs and glass top laquered in black colour.”

Symetrics Modern Bathroom Concepts from Dornbracht

Dornbracht creates my idea of the perfect modern bathroom that not only looks great but promotes a wellness concept and "the spirit of water". The Symetrics collection focuses not on the individual series or fitting, but on the bathroom as a whole which opens up new perspectives in bathroom planning. My favorite is the WaterSheet wall mounted cascade bath spout that acts as your own personal water fall, and when combined with the Symetrics RainSky M shower you have created a sanctuary that would be hard to tear yourself away from. Dornbracht even sets the right mood with their new innovative Light Modules systems, which give the bathroom a highly individual flair. The unique Light Modules have been created in conjunction with SIEGER DESIGN and Günter Luther Bathroom Concepts, and are available in various shapes and sizes. See the entire collection of bathroom and mood lighting concepts here.

Flatpak - Industrial Design Aspen House

This picture shows the Flatpak home located in Aspen, Colorado. From first glance you can see that this is not the rustic styling that is common to mountain resort homes in Aspen. Flatpak features a modern industrial design. As I look closely I see design inspired from construction elements that would be found in a warehouse. A warehouse features high ceilings, few windows, and a boxy frame since its purpose to maximize space and flow goods through its design. It would be interesting to find out what the neighbors think of this house. Via.
