A new design from Patricia Urquiola for Moroso has a pretty unique name: M.A.S.S.A.S. It stands for Moroso Asymmetric Sofa System Adorably Stitched. The soft, curvy asymmetric lines of the sofa are defined with fabric definition in the form of heavy piping

My parents always had a lot of wood furniture in their home, and now looking around my own, I realized I have a ton of it as well! They actually gave me my dining table and chairs – all wooden – but my coffee table, bed frame, tv stand, bar stools – everything is wood! Aside from the coffee table and tv stand – my fiance picked them out – the dining set, bed frame, and stools are all on the modern side, even though they’re made from wood. Sometimes when I think of modern, I think of chromed legs and lucite – not wood. Do you ever think that way?
Anyway, I came across a site that sells Pine-Oak Furniture, including the dining set you see above. I love the unique shape of the table that is far more modern than traditional, wouldn’t you agree? If you browse through their Collection of Oak Furniture and Pine Wood Furniture, you’ll see some of the furniture is more transitional, but they also offer a ton of modern wood furniture as well. They also pair a lot of their dining tables with chic modern chairs – and I love that contrast.
What are your thoughts on wood furniture? Do you have a lot in your home or do you mix and match with other materials such as chrome and stainless steel?

What do you think of these chairs in glass?
The concept is interesting, but I’m not sure how useful they would. If it were raining it might be nice, but you would still have to dash outside to get in the glass cube. It does look pretty chic and modern, especially if the chairs were a bit more contemporary, but the functionality is holding me back a little.
Would you put these in your yard or would you rather chairs with the glass cube?

These inventive chairs were featured on Contemporist the other day and I love their simplicity that is enhanced by the fun intertwined legs.
Designed by Kan and Lau Designs, each chair has a different finish but they complement one another. These chairs would be perfect in a hallway or even at the end of a dining table for a sweet couple that likes to eat dinner sitting next to each other!

One of the restaurants on a cruise I was on a few years ago had several high back dining chairs, and there was something so fun and mystical about them. I don’t know if it’s because they seem so unsuspected, but since then, I love a good high back chair – whether its in a dining room or living room.
They’re just fun to sit in, right? In an Alice in Wonderland kind of way, if that makes any sense. I would love to incorporate high back chairs into a seating area in a dramatic living room one day. I like the outdoor chairs as well, though, and could definitely spend endless afternoons getting lost in them.
How about you?
