I am a big fan of the Italian design house - Seletti. This is Italian design at its very best from
stylish waste bins,
amazing architectural dinner services,
cool mugs,
unbelievably stylish toilet brushes and
brilliantly bright containers.

More Than a Little Over The Top
These weird objects are called Megaphones and are to boost the sound output from your iPhone. I cannot help but like them and it would certainly bring some humour to your video conferencing. From Enandis in Italy

Recycling The Italian Way
Whilst wneding my way around the internet this morning I came across this fabulous Italian website - Giovanni Scafuro. Love what he is doing with old cutlery and ceramics. He does lots of other stuff, take a look at the braclet and ring made from old key holes. Fabulouso!

Just WOW!
These are from Ricrea in Italy. Maybe a little over the top if plastered all over a room but as statement pieces they work for me. Apparently the chairs are very comfortable to sit on.

Studio In Residence
Those lovely people at Yatzer have gone and done it again. They have gained access to a fabulous Pilazzoi in Milan. The home and studio of Dimore Studio. Well I could just move in there, no bother.

Mesmerising
When I entered the site of VG New Trend in Italy I thought the figures used were statues and wondered how they got them in the right positions. Seems they are real people made to look like statues. Not only is their website mesmerising so are the pieces of furniture, lighting and floral displays. Take a look there's more and take note of the music containing heavy breathing and dripping water.

Oh Giorgio You Haven't Lost It
It's a while since I bought a piece of Giorgio Armani let alone visit one of his shops but I was pleased to see the man hasn't lost any of that amazing talent to cut clothes in a way no one else can. From his AW 11/12 collection. Images from Madame, le Figaro

Never Ever Throw Anything Away
Note to self: Never ever walk away from a pile of broken chairs at the brocante ever again! I found these at Resign in Italy and thank you Resign for teaching me a very valuable lesson.

Italian Wallpapers - Wow!
I have to say on my many trips to Italy I very rarely saw wallpaper so I was shocked to find this amazing Italian website - Wall and Deco. Blown away is an understatement. Enjoy.

How Do They Do This?
I just love coming across this sort of design. I look in puzzlement at these pieces and wonder how many got broken in the process. From Secondome in Italy
