Decorating: Vintage Typewriters
No matter how high tech your life gets, some classic gadgets should always be welcome in your abode. Let's face it - no matter how sleek and pretty an iPad looks, a vintage typewriter or phonograph is always going to qualify better as an interesting decor accessory. Below you will find some inspiring ideas for decorating with a vintage typewriter. For more vintage examples please have a look at the links below. For your own vintage typewriter: check out Kasbah Mod.
For a refined space reminiscent of a Parisian atelier, choose a much older typewriter model — think late 19th century or early 20th century models.
The red of this typewriter adds a major pop of color against the cool, neutral grays in the room.

RUNWAY: ARMANI SPRING 2012 HAUTE COUTURE
ARMANI HAUTE COUTURE SPRING 2012:
Gorgeous high fashion. Love the green colors! The theme was metamorphosis – like the mutation from flora to fauna, aqua to solid. Oceans of organza undulated and glittered like late-night waves and contrasted with slick blazers. Waxed snakeskin tops rubbed shoulders with reptile prints, all in a bold, green palette. Shimmery corsets were wrapped in a deluge of silk, but daywear was controlled and pencil-shaped. The Tim Burton feel was furthered by an ankle length skirt with giant pocket, paired with a simple sleeveless blouse. Bravo, Giorgio. For the complete review please have a look at Fashionista.com, see enclosed hyperlink.

Nice Outdoor Furniture / Leuke buitenmeubels
Terwijl ik aan het browsen ben op internet kom ik deze 2 leuke tuinbanken tegen bij Tafel-Design.nl, te weten de design Tuinbank Wednesday en de design 2-zitsbank For Two. Leuke, frisse kleuren.
Design Tuinbank Wednesday (door Peter Kos)
De Wednesday is de ideale bank voor in de tuin op het gras, of op de veranda. Het materiaal van deze design tuinbank voelt aangenaam aan doordat het 100% kunststof direct de lichaamswarmte aanneemt. De opening achteraan in het midden van het zitvlak, zorgt voor de afvoer van het eventuele regenwater. Tevens kun je aan dit handvat de strak vormgegeven design tuinbank van 10 kilo gemakkelijk optillen en verplaatsen. Verkrijgbaar in de kleuren: groen, blauw, oranje, grijs, wit en zwart.
Design Tuinbank: For Two (door Adriano Tolomei)For Two, een leuke eye-catcher voor in de hal, tuin of op het terras. Een design 2-zitsbank voor zowel binnen als buiten. Rotatiegegoten waardoor deze licht is in gewicht en supersterk! Verkrijgbaar in de kleuren wit en oranje.
Thank you for reading this blogpost.

MOOI ONTWERP: DE GLOW HANGLAMP
Hanglamp Glow: niet voor niets de winnaar van de 100% Designprijs Rotterdam in 2006. Een prachtige hanglamp van Marc de Groot, die zowel geschikt is voor moderne als klassieke interieurs. Door een ingenieuze boogconstructie van RVS verenstaal en gespannen bilaterale superstretch stof ontstaat een sfeervolle en functionele hanglamp. Ik vind het een prachtig ontwerp.

4. Martin Vallin for Cappellini: The Secret Clubhouse. Made out of recycled wood.
This image shows the Anti Comfort Chair from Andrea Branzi. Made from recycled Venetian “briccole”, which were used in the canals and waterways.
