Oh 3D printing, your wonders never cease to amaze! The things that those printers can do ( like make Joy Division’s Unknown Pleasures album cover come to life ) is truly mind-blowing, and with people like Kevin Spencerat the helm, I’m pretty sure anything can be made. Take this mini Eames Lounge Chair that is achieved through 3D color printing.

We spotted the KiGA Kitchen Garden  from Hurbz at ICFF this year and immediately knew we had to share them. The modular planter is composed of four units, each with its own leg and its own pot, that assemble together to either lean against an outdoor wall or stand on its own. The all-white garden pots are at different heights, all at a level to prevent you from having to bend down. The taller height helps prevent unwanted critters from enjoying a tasty snack before you get a chance to

We first fell in love with Scott Daniel Design’s work when we spotted his Cmesh pendant lighting and he’s expanded the Cmesh line to include more table lamps, stools and wall tiles. This Brooklyn-based studio headed by artist Scott Daniel Strickstein is definitely one to watch. He creates beautiful porcelain designs by placing ceramic over top of mesh, which he calls Cmesh, that can be draped and manipulated until it hardens.

I bought a huge thing of basil at the grocery store that I was supposed to plant, but being that it was raining cats and dogs outside, I decided that I was going to use it all up. Rather than making the standard batch of pesto with it, I wanted to try something new. Since I was making steak last night, chimichurri sauce was the first thing that came to mind. I had never heard of chimichurri being made with basil, but I thought let me Google it and sure enough, I found what I was looking for!

I used a little bit less garlic than this recipe from Sarah’s Cucina Bella, but other than that I stuck to it and it was the perfect accent to our steak. A great summer sauce that I definitely recommend putting on your recipe radar!

What other summer sauces do you plan on making this season?

Leave it to design genius Philippe Starck to create a lounge system that’s built for not only comfort, but staying connected as well. Italian furniture manufacturer Cassina had asked him to design a sofa many years before but he always saw the sofa as “obsolete.” Now, he sees them as a necessity for the changing world where leisure time is just as important as work, especially for those with more flexibility between the office and home. Partnering on the MyWorld collection brought Cassina’s level of high quality and impeccable taste together with Starck’s razor sharp design aesthetic, to create a modular seating system that could work for anyone. From Starck: “We live in a schizophrenic society
