Crystal clear...

Think ghost chair, think Starck right?

Well, there is a new contender. Drift have developed this wonderfully alluring encased wafting smoke series, also called Ghost. They look amazing, although quite boxy to sit on. I shall go perch in a showroom and report back.






They also make these etherial dandelion lights, which contrast perfectly with their copper and cement casings. Want.

E-vase-ive

I've never really gone in for single flower vases as I really like my bouquets to pack a visual and nasal punch. But I'm warming to the subtleness of these and since the weather has been rubbish, it's unlikely to be much of a spring so I may not have much choice...

Multifunctional offerings from Tactile Interiors

Join the club...

As I'm female, I've never been allowed to set foot inside my father's London quarters The Saville Club. I imagine inside it looks something like this. Which looks uber appealing, as since I went through boarding school and Oxford, I feel I have, a little bit, been groomed to be a young squire and thus am designed to wallow in deep antique leather chairs, smoke cigars and play tennis with the sort of racquet that gives you severe splinters. Luckily, should I wish to create a club of my own, everything in the photos below is for sale, having been lovingly collected or crafted by Timothy Oulton and Co. Very tempting. Giant Union Flag curtains a must.


















Weird and wonderful...

A gathering of some of the more fun furnishings around, with a heavily 1980s slant. Because who doesn't want a Nintento-esque fire screens!
