Meanwhile, I wanted to share with you yesterday this great relatively new furniture company, Shimna, which has done a great job pairing natural materials (read crunchy, organic) with strong modern forms...

Their small line of furniture is made to order in the US and very customizable, though the main draw is the wood. Here are some highlights.

I really like this coffee table concept. It's pure wood, but with a carved seat on top and hidden storage inside.

Shimna is a bit mysterious and the designers do not reveal themselves on their site, but their Lafayette street showroom is open daily and we hope their grooviness thrives. >> Shimna.net

Best,
