Chic Furniture....Online!

Sometimes it is very difficult to find good modern furniture. There are a few places where you might find something if you are lucky (@Home is one that comes to mind). Or there are a bunch of places that may or may not be in your price range...(Abaca, GoodEarth, etc)

But the other day, I came across a site that has some simple elegant furniture in classic oak wood. The site and some of its product are quite a treat. What's more is that they deliver all across India. Check out: http://www.inliving.com/

The products are reasonably priced (similar to Fabindia):

The Tahoe and the Ice collections were particularly interesting.

Here are a few individual pieces from them:

A cute side-table

Single - book rack

A console table

Enjoy inliving.com and wish you all a very Happy 2009!

Be Brave; Not Beige

An unlikely caption found on Ikea's UK site. In a bid to attract more youth to their Scandinavian designs, Ikea has experimented with bolder colours straying aay from their clean natural wood finishing. We found some really interesting and fun pieces in their recent collection. Enjoy!An unlikely caption found on Ikea's UK site.

Yummy Furniture

Recently we were flicking through the lifestyle supplement of India today (called Spices?). We came across a fun story about a furniture design company in Mumbai. They took inspiration from wood and smoke associated with trains. They have a regularly updated and well designed website : www.blacksmoke.co.in

Over half their designs were fascinating and all were ultra contemporary and a feast to the eyes!

They make all their furniture on order and complete orders in a matter of 20 odd days.

Here is a big thumbs up to Black Smoke!!
