Aparte is a design agency from France who recently presented a prototype of their Katra chair, made of ramie fiber. I’m loving the profile – so sexy.

Katra Chair by Aparte

IKEA has released a new book called Homemade is Best , created by design agency Forsman & Bodenfors . Inside the book are 30 classic Swedish baking recipes for everything from small biscuits to large cakes — all using pictures. Inspired by high fashion and Japanese minimalism, the 140-page book is stylized with the ingredients getting just as much attention as the end result. Very interesting and eyecandy-licious (and delicious too, I’m sure!).
