Iannone Graphic Armoire

Filed under: Decor, Green

Michael Iannone's eco-friendly furniture makes use of reclaimed materials and simple modern design. The doors on this stunning armoire are made from Kirie, an engineered product constructed from reclaimed stalks of the Sorghum plant. The stalks are joined together using formaldehyde-free adhesive, creating a strong yet lightweight environmentally friendly substitute for wood.

The striking floral pattern is achieved with an overlay of gloss white laminate that is GREENGUARD certified. The cabinet itself is constructed from birch plywood certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, ensuring that it comes from well-managed, sustainable forests.

Inside this gorgeous armoire are three adjustable shelves and two dovetailed drawers. The piece measures 70" high by 40" wide by 22" deep. In the hands of Iannone, green is beautiful. $3995.

Wine Knot

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor, Wine

My grandmother has a wine rack that has been sitting in the darkest corner of her dining room for 20 years, and the only reason that it was moved then was that she moved to a new home. It's not an attractive piece of furniture and many wine racks are resigned to similarly dark corners - not for the benefit of the wine, but because they're unpleasant to look at. This Wine Knot, on the other hand, clearly qualifies as art. It is constructed of slotted pieces of birch plywood, stained light and dark and elegantly woven together, supported by stainless steel legs. It can hold six bottles, plus a magnum-sized bottle in the center star. Price: $98.

Filed under: Decor

This module-style M-5.5 Playhouse is made of 1/2-inch thick birch plywood panels that are 28-inches square. With 85 pieces to work with, the fort of any child's dreams can be made easily. The playhouse, designed by Gregg Fleishman, assembles by hand without the need for tools; the pieces snap together securely and will support almost any geometric construction. It comes in a natural, weather-resistant finish and has smooth edges, which are safe for children. Think of it as being the largest, most stylish set of Lincoln logs you've ever seen. Price: $18,000.
