Log Cabin Melodies & Zoran Djuric - StumbleUpon
Hans Liberg has got himself one of the coolest recording studios on planet Earth! Take a look at this woody gem of a cabin, located in the town of Hilversum, The Netherlands. Put together by his pal, an established furniture designer by the name of Piet Hein Eek, the structure features an absolutely fabulous facade of stacked logs. Even a row of clerestory windows get the full log treatment, and when opened they fill the compact interior with natural light… Yeah Hans… we’re all jealous of your sweet man lair! In a stark contrast with the textured exterior, the interior is clean and open.The Cool Hunter - Architecture - StumbleUpon
Over the past seven years, at our creative agency, Access , we have worked with a number of residential and commercial property developers from Abu Dhabi to Sydney, helping them with development and strategy. Yet we see so often the sad sight of yet another mediocre building going up. We see city councils approving mediocre design and we see cities looking uglier because of it. We see property developers rushing to get their building up, wanting to make a quick sale and profit, and not really caring or thinking about the aesthetics of the building. Does the building enhance the surrounding area or make it worse? Will the building still look great 10, 15 or 20 years from now?

I'm obsessed with making-over old, worn out furniture. It's amazing how almost any old piece can be totally transformed with new paint, hardware and a little imagination! Here are three examples from Ladies Home Journal...click here to read the entire article. Out-dated side table with stone top transformed into a bright and cheerful accent piece!
