Arim Candle Holder and Bud Vases

Filed under: Decor

These Arim Candle Holder and Bud Vases are inspired by contemporary influences combined with ancient Turkish forms. Mouth blown out of lead-free crystal, the slim stems and pastel coloring fits well with their name (arim), which in Turkish means "sweetheart." It's too bad they don't make a variety of sizes, as I'd love a grouping all bunched together with white blooms in each, but that's not to say one as part of a summer centerpiece wouldn't be gorgeous also. They are only available in two colors, green and blue, and are actually quite tall at 14". $215 each.

ObliqSound Remixes Vol. 2, Limited Edition

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

The ObliqSound Remixes Vol. 2 double CD features the works of a number of artists, including Tama Waipara, Tony Devivo and Grand Pianoramax, but the main thing that makes it interesting is that the CD packaging was designed by Karim Rashid. Its release marks the designer's first foray into this particular area of design. It was produced with the help of Brazilian footwear manufacturer, Melissa, and is made out of the same "jelly" material that they use for many of their shoes. Only 2,000 units total will be available. Price: $50.

Omni Sofa

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor

Designer Karin Rashid came up with the modular Omni Sofa, envisioning a seating arrangement where friends could gather in a comfortable, intimate way to chat and hang out. Of course, because the five pieces are separate, they can be put into any arrangement, even set up around the house as five separate chairs. If you are committed to separating the pieces, they can be ordered individually as opposed to in a set.

Don't be put off by the color. In addition to hot pink, it comes in a wide array of colors, including white, black, chocolate brown, violet, dark red, slate grey and blue, as well as many others. It is also available in ultrasuede, doro suede and fabric upholstery. Price, as pictured in pink ultrasuede: $16,200.
