Industrial cool doesn't need to be confined to just grown up spaces.
Look at how wonderfully these wire baskets work in Silas' Poised for Adventure Room. If your baby or kids space is a
little too fluffy and soft, why not consider adding some wire baskets
to your bookshelf, or like Lindsay, to the wall?
If you're looking for wallpaper that's a little out of the ordinary, Bloompapers may be just the ticket. Bloompapers' work with both established and up and coming artists produces some extraordinary wall murals. And if you fancy yourself an artist, you can also design your own wallpaper.

On a scale of 1 to 10, shopping for a filing cabinet for the home office falls somewhere in the realm of "2" and "Zzzzz". But Poppin's West 18th File Cabinet is different, thanks to its friendly rounded corners and bright and colorful fronts, adding a splash of vibrant personality to a normally mundane piece of office furniture.

There's really no way around the fact the built-in speakers of the Apple iPad are tiny and anemic. Movies, games, and music require plugging in a pair of headphones for clear dialogue and an immersive experience. Belkin's aptly named Thunderstorm was designed to eliminate the need for headphones or Airplaying to an external source by augmenting output with a miniature sound bar design. Using my iPad 3, I took this hybrid case/speaker for a high-fidelity test drive.
The Goodhood Store has been selling clothing and accessories for men and women since '07 but this year saw the launch of their Life Store, stocked with fresh and funky goods to outfit the home. The folks behind The Goodhood Store set out to be the destination for design in London's East End. Luckily for those of us who don't get the UK often (or ... ever) they also have a great web shop.
MoreCocktail shakers with recipes printed on them are excellent space savers for your bar or tabletop. With these, there's no need to store and fumble with recipes. The best of the bunch is the shaker featured in the main photo by Kikkerland. It is printed with pour markings so don't need a measuring cup or jigger either.
I spent many years of my youth stacking and un-stacking chairs in church basements and cafeterias and have a special fondness for the ubiquitous colorful chairs found in those spots. Here are some contemporary examples with a similar vibe, perfect for small space and outdoor entertaining.
