So I am at the beginning of my first ever urban gardening experience. While my little garden is quite humble, a few green beans, a couple heads of lettuce , a pot of cucumbers and a simple herb garden, it hasn’t stopped me from seeking inspiration. I’ve gathered a few images I have come across while surfing. I hope they inspire you too!
Can I just say I really love this idea? One of my favorite ways to design is to take something ordinary, that we use everyday and turn it into something unique and unexpected. An improvised garden using washing up gloves, can turn a wall, fence or even a window into a something amazing. [source]
Found this hanging succulent garden on Home Depot’s blog. I really liked it because you don’t normally think of succulents as hanging plants. It’s pretty simple to make, the site provides step by step instructions, and it’s easy to care for–just water every other week! [source]
You were more likely to find me trying hard to distract the cute boy from his Tetris game, rather than behind the controls myself. But I am still a child of the 80′s and I am totally geeking out over this cool Tetris Couch by Stefano Grasselli. Several smaller pieces come together to make the larger sofa. Unlike the game itself however, you don’t have to worry about them disappearing once you’ve made a good match.
The official Earth Day was yesterday, but most companies seem to be extending that to a full week or even month. In celebration of this event, I thought it would be cool to look at one company, Lucirmás whose mission is to create beautiful products using recycled glass.
I’ve never seen the Bodies exhibit full body specimens, too squeamish, but the meat furniture created by Simone Racheli is so cool I could eat it. No not really, but I would love to have one of these super groovy (and completely realistic looking) side chair. I wonder if my vegan friends would still visit me?
