blue heaven
Designer Paola Navone ‘s Milan Apartment
I was sleeping, sleeping and sleeping last few days and have just woken up dreaming about this blue heaven!
Sleeping was strange enough but that is another story, another post.
As of now let us get into this blue heaven of Italian designer Paola Navone in Milan.
Above image : Specially made in Morocco these blue zellige (enameled tiles) decorates her home as she wanted her apartment to feel like a seaside place.
In Paola’s lounge two white lamps designed by her vie for attention along with a strange fish and Moroccan trays.
The simple dining room boasts of an immense marble table top and American bar stool type seating.

nothing and now here
Graphic designer Ravi Hampole
This is creation of New York based graphic designer Ravi Hampole – a book – Nothing and Now here.
Go through the pages of the book to override fine line between real world and illusion, erase the line between interior and exterior spaces and feel lost between spaces.
Interior imagery is cut and juxtaposed with exterior imagery. Book is developed from an excerpt in the Tao of Pooh.
Beautiful and meditative! nah?

How this one for X-mas tree
I was about to put Apartment therapy (LA) in my credit links list with a thanks. But it seemed somehow incomplete!
(Gregory @ AT wrote :AT:India, here we come?)
Hey AT sure, a very warm welcome both ways! And what better traditional way to do so but with a rangoli…
And the X-mas is just around the corner.
So how about our kind of X-mas tree this season! ?
This is traditional brass multi-tiered oil lamp from South India. Just imagine how it is going to look when it is lighted!
(And our jhula-swing as suspended furniture is an extremely interesting way to describe – new to my ears but a topic for a separate post altogether so will do a little later.)
