Home and furniture creations



furniture Creations Ltd are leaders in the Home staging industry. Home staging is a service which allows home owners to work with a stylist to present their home to its highest aesthetic potential to maximize the property ability to sell in the quickest timeframe for the best possible price. The talented Furniture Creations team of designers will create the WOW factor.If you're looking for a unique home based business that has minimal competition and potential to generate a six-figure income, then look no further. Starting a business that manufactures and sells junkyard furniture is a very interesting venture.
At a recent reception at Belvedere in Atlanta, designers and collectors snatched up Adler's creations -- rough, simple, smooth, curvy -- many a throwback to the graphic designs and Scandinavian styles of the 1950s and 1960s. His Brasilia dinnerware mimics the minimalist concrete forms of Brutalist architecture. The key to its success is to create funky, yet functional furniture from discarded items typically found at a wrecking yard or junkyard. The most popular junkyard furniture items are generally couches and chairs that have been partially assembled from antique auto parts, such as a couch fashioned out of a '57 Chevy front end.
He also has been hard at work on a new ceramics collection that he hopes will be in stores in February. "It will definitely be an extension of what I do already, in the sense that I will use my hand-loomed, Peruvian textiles to upholster it," Adler explained in a recent telephone interview from New York.
Scriptone has also collected additional designs from other cardboard furniture designers from around the world here worth perusing for inspiration or just plain admiration (some of these must have taken ages). Perhaps in this economy many us will be saving those cardboard boxes to furnish our homes?
Starting this type of business does have its prerequisites--creative and artistic ability, a well-equipped workshop, and design and construction skills. However, for the innovative entrepreneur who possesses these abilities, a fun, interesting and potentially profitable business venture is waiting. Dovetails as a name don’t jog much of an idea in a girl who has never known much about the creation of furniture.When I build an Ikea chair, every bolt is plastic and they pop into place.Or it sits in a corner until my father figures it out. Today , there are many furniture design and many new furniture design in our daily life .

Today, the Biedermeier style furniture is increasingly popular



Today, the Biedermeier style is increasingly popular. The clean, simple lines and honest, functional form that characterize the style pair well with  modern home designs  styles. On your next project, consider Biedermeier style pieces to fulfill your desire for furniture that is both beautiful and functional. Vienna was the source of many typical designs, primarily because of the assured quality of workmanship from a city where apprentices were examined on use of material, construction, originality of design and quality of cabinetwork before being admitted to the league of approved master cabinetmakers.

Cavendish has more than just a professional interest in Biedermeier. Many of his favorite pieces adorn his west London home. Characteristic features include simple lines and blonde wood typical of the more northern European style."I started by loving Empire furniture more than anything else. But I found that I preferred [Biedermeier's] light blond woods and relative simplicity. I don't like clutter myself."A lady once bought a birch wood dining table in our shop and she said she felt like she could throw a bread roll over it. That is a remark I actually rather like because the light blond Biedermeier has a quality of informality."

A remarkable example of how furniture design can reflect great historical events is provided by the emergence of the Biedermeier style after Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo in 1815. The mood of the people of Europe changed - and the style of the furniture altered dramatically to match this mood. As Napoleon had conquered most Europe, the pompous, magnificent Empire style with its grand, monumental mahogany furniture had become extremely fashionable, and palaces and houses were accordingly redecorated throughout the continent.But after Napoleon's final defeat, Europe settled down to a long period of peace. The middle classes, who were prospering, wanted a simpler style, which could be functional as well as beautiful. This style, later known as 'Biedermeier', is essentially Empire furniture shorn of its ormolu mounts, excessive gilding and aggressive self-importance. Its original geometric shape often leads it to being described as the forerunner of modern furniture.

In response to growing demand for the style, Cavendish has started making his own designs and reproductions -- prompted by a celebrity Biedermeier fan."The person who really got us going as a serious designer, was Elton John, because he bought a lot of antiques from us and then he said: 'I want to do the bedrooms in Biedermeier as well,'" said Cavendish."It is the first great functional style," he said. "Antiques before Biedermeier were made to go in a room, in a place in that room. It was a revolution therefore, that you could use it for anything you wanted, anywhere you want it."

Rustic decoration give us warmth and beautiful dream



Ilan Ilan is a no-frills, rustic resort with warmth, charm and great hospitality. If you're looking for an upscale pampered vacation, don't stay here. But if you enjoy peaceful, rustic surroundings and the beauty of nature  interior decorating, you're going to love this place!


What a bright and cheerful space, especially inviting during this chilly winter we're having in St. Louis MO. I wish I could better embrace the idea of letting each piece of furniture have it's own space like this. I just keep finding so much cool stuff that I want to live with it all! Alas, some of it eventually moves on to other homes and for all to brief moments there is room to walk around.

And one new café store also prefer to the warmth of rustic decoration : “The new cafe  is described by the designers as a place “providing a warm and rustic interior escape from the hustle and bustle of the West End precinct. Mim Design was contracted to complete the graphics and branding, uniform and packaging design, full accessories styling and visual merchandising, design of custom furniture pieces as well as the full interior design scope.” With a long central isle flanked by tables and plenty of unique decorating items put on display, this cafe is probably considered by most a miniature museum.”

One woman say :“My husband and I decided to take a chance doing Thanksgiving away from family and friends and were absolutely blown away by the wonderful experience we had a Gold Mountain Manor. The hostess Cathy is phenomenal - truly what you want in a host, warm, fun, smart with a strong ability to perceive what you might need! She truly spoiled us rotten with the Thanksgiving feast that was award winning, the extensive breakfast (even making sure we had our veggie sausage) and the afternoon appetizers and wine (including an amazing brie with chutney - yum). This place reminded me of "House Hunters International (Europe)" - those episodes in which Europeans are moving from one country to another and they always seemed to want to buy a "ruin" in France or Spain. Since this was an old farmhouse, I wonder if it was a ruin when Requejo got it? He did a great job on it, ruin or not.”

Truly a rare experience to have such care and attention paid to a guest...needless to say we will be back! And the B&B itself - super CLEAN, rustic but classy and wood burning fireplace in the room...if you are looking for a romantic, relaxing getaway - look no further! My husband and I have found a gem and are still gabbing away about our stay - a good sign of perfection! Thanks Cathy - you know how to make your guests feel welcome and truly taken care of - the stay was nothing short of magical!

You can’t worried about your small home anymore



Choosing what to take to your new home design  can be tough, especially if you've lived in your current house for a long time. First, think about how much space you have in your new home and decide which pieces of furniture you can reasonably take. Next, think about what you'll actually use; if your kids are grown, for example, you shouldn't keep their possessions. Give grown kids a deadline for moving their stuff from your house. Finally, make a list of what you plan to keep and what you plan to take with you.

The name of the game in small-space living is ensuring that every single item in your house is fully functional and useful. While small apartment couches and arm chairs might allow you to have a "full" living room set in your smaller place, that full set of "apartment sized" furniture might not be as comfortable and as functional as a single full-size sofa. Also, one piece of large furniture can make a small space look cozy and defined, whereas a collection of small pieces of furniture can make the place look small and cluttered. The art of storage is important -- following the axiom: a place for everything and everything in its place. In a small home, especially, disorganization can ruin family harmony. If work centers are planned, items can be put away when an activity is finished.

Give yourself at least a few weeks to pack, preferably longer. Start packing in rooms you use least frequently; these rooms tend to have less stuff, and packing clutter in unused rooms won't affect your daily life. Sort items according to where they are going; for example, you could have a box for items going to charity and another box of items for your daughter. Don't wait until moving day to start donating and giving away your excess possessions; you'll feel less overwhelmed if you can simplify gradually.

A small kitchen does not have to be a boring or unattractive kitchen. In fact, its diminutive size can be an asset. Like small bathrooms, a small kitchen can be a jewel box of a room. Just choose a theme or "look" for your kitchen, and tightly adhere to it.When living in a space of less than 1,200 square feet, organization is the key. A Colorado State University bulletin describes the challenges for families living in a small dwelling and it offers tips about how to recognize a well-designed home that still offers privacy, livability and ease of function. In addition, it cautions that living in close quarters requires family members to respect each other's need for personalized space, no matter how small.

Yes! Robot live in your interior decoration home



When we stumbled across this video, which teases a Seattle house that looks like a "giant robot," we were skeptical. And after seeing it, we're not exactly sure if this one-of-a-kind home resembles a robot per se, but we must admit it is incredible! Positioned on a small and steep sliver of land that the owners were intent on buying, the creative home  is built…upwards.

Graffiti and designer art toys. I wanted to walk into this place and almost feel like I stepped into a KidRobot store. The idea was to keep things light and airy, incorporate bright pops of color throughout, then tie it together with a modern and cozy feel. I had a nice collection of graffiti canvases from years of DJing for a local street art gallery, so I decided to add a few more talented Philly artists to the mix in order to fill up wall space and brighten things up. When I had a new piece commissioned, I would go to the store and hand pick a couple of vibrant graffiti colors for the artist to work with in order to switch up the color palette in the apartment. Overall, I love all the pieces and I think it makes the space look a lot more fun and animated.

As is the case for the exterior, the floor plan is anything but ordinary. In order to ensure the best views, the husband and wife homeowners wanted their living room to be at the top of the 2,600 square-foot home, way above the rest of the space. And the  interior design ideas  is something special, too. To match the homeowner's belief that color should be bold, the interior is modern and sleek, with pops of bright colors in the furniture and accent

Home robots made their first appearance two decades ago. In the early 1980s, several manufacturers introduced home robots, including B.O.B. (for brains on board), Topo, and the Hero I from Heath (see MACHINE DESIGN, March 24, 1983, pp. 85-90). The relatively slow processors of the time set limits on functions the robots could perform. Moore's Law, with processing power rising as prices drop, has made affordable personal robots possible. The ER1 is the first reasonably priced robot for consumers which will actually do something useful. The kitchen. It's not quite up to par with the rest of the apartment. I was left with mismatched cabinets and an awkward cubby that I use for storage. So I do my best to keep everyone distracted with the living room and bedroom and keep them away from that area.

Smart Home System was installed to control the AV, HVAC, lighting and solar shades. Underbed drawers give more space-saving storage options. Despite the robots, toys and framed prints , home decorating,  this tween boy's room can easily transition into a comfortable guest bedroom.Blink and you might just miss the AC condensor units beneath”
