The Union: Old Wreck Renovated into Modern Solar-powered Lofts
The old Union Hall of San Diego’s Textile Manufacturing Business got a new lease of life thanks to the innovative design of architect and developer Jonathan Segal. The architect decided to revamp and reuse the old structure in tatters, instead of demolishing and building a new one, which not only saved time, but also building material. His sustainable design now includes a total of 13 new residential lofts. Some of these are available at the market rate while others are affordable despite the array of ergonomic features they incorporate. The innovative homes are powered by solar power for 50% of their energy needs and also are lit up by great natural ventilation. - via JetsonGreen

This beautiful and luxurious leather bed was submitted using Send us Tips form by Irvina Kanarek. This is a great find because the price for this bed is only $999.00, that is a very good price for a leather bed like this.
This unique leather slay bed in a lush milk chocolate hue will have you craving a good nights sleep! A quality set made with tri-toned Italian leather. Tri toned leather is a blend of three leathers for the purpose of giving it a romantic blend instead of one dull opaque shade.

Minimalist Sinuosa Kitchens from Effeti Highlight Shape and Color
The great pictures feature the Sinuosa line of kitchens. Made by Effeti, Sinuosa features minimalist design styling accenting shape and color. I particularly like the white countertops and their contrast to the dark wood cabinetry below. The way the islands curve appeals to my interest in shapes. It is rather unusual not to have a rectangular shaped island so this shape is quite a refreshing design. Via.

Contemporary Floor Lamp from Modu Luce
Corner is a contemporary designed floor lamp from Italian lighting company, Modu Luce. Corner features a striking arc as the stand comes from the lamp base to eventually connect to the lamp shade. Corner's colors are very neutral making this a piece a fit for many contemporary homes. I like the wide circle of light produced by corner as it allows for "light intensive" activities such as reading, studying, or crafts. Modu Luce site: here.
snappy convertibletags: livingroom
LIKE LEGOS the Snappy Convertible literally snaps together. Consistently appealing, we like the way the ottoman perfectly slides into the detachable seatback and armrests–forming a stylish two-toned bed in the process. Even more thoughtful: stainless steel legs double as handles while microfiber upholstery makes cleaning a cinch.

prealpi plaza platform bedtags: bedroom
Efficient folks with an affinity for contemporary design would likely suffer a massive migraine if he/she were to ever lay eyes upon Prealpi’s gorgeous Plaza bed. On one hand, the average human being spends approximately 30% of their lifespan in sleeping. On the other hand, you’re not exactly conscious during that time, so why bother with something pricey? An ugly conundrum, but simultaneously a very pretty one.
Located in Follina, Italy, Prealpi has single-handedly redefined my definition of “ perfect platform beds” with the Plaza. There’s really only one thing that grabs my attention: the downward-sweeping curve of the headboard as it merges gracefully with the bedframe. It’s utterly simple, but utterly elegant. There’s also a bit of Alpine poetry in the headboard’s shape, as it Mirrors Prealpi’s factory’s location at the base of the similarly downward-sweeping Veneto Alps.
Other classic platform bed elements help to round out the Plaza: the 2″ sunken center, the two inch thick wood used throughout the frame, and the requisite 10″ platform surrounding the mattress. The White leather variant definitely has my vote for jaw-dropping bedroom goodness, but Moro Oak in a Wenge finish would likely be easier to keep clean and more in line with my masculine sensibilities. Available in both Queen and King sizes, Spacify also includes a ten- drawer Accenti dresser and two illuminated nightstands.

The great thing about a bathroom is that it can be either private or public depending on the placement in your home.

When your friends come over for tea, they may not know about your wonderful new bathroom colors if you choose to keep it private. Via.
