Gus Design Acrylic Wine Rack - a "Clear" Choice for Cool
A wine rack is a great accent in a kitchen as it speaks of festive, fun, good times, and hope. I say hope, because with a little wine, a bad day can easily be erased. Gus Design has created an acrylic wine rack that features a clear look that will accent the bottles and blend well into most kitchen designs. Also, if space is at more of a premium such as in a loft or apartment, the vertical nature of this style may suit your wine storage needs. Measurements: 4.5" d x 1" w x 32" h. Price: $155. Product: here.

vitamins are good for youtags: lighting, miscellanea, outdoors
Via Cool Hunting: The guys and gals over at Vitamin definitely have a fun, playful spirit when d furniturees to design, and it’s downright infectious at times. Their Powder Seat is a an innovative way to turn your snowboard into a seat, with sleek chromed metal legs that attach to your ‘board with suction cups. The d furnituree in two varieties (tripod and arrow-shaped), both of which can be folded flat for storage.
Vitamin arguably has a bit of a plant fetish as well. From top: I.V. is a pot with an attached drip feeder, just like the ones you find in hospitals, while both Tab A and Tab B are two-piece pots that use your plant to cover up the sight and smell of cigarettes in the ash tray underneath. Lastly, X-Tray has a nice urban feel to it, with slightly sloping rectangular pots that can be arranged in a straight line, perpendicularly or in an L.
Spruce is one of the d furniturebinations I’ve seen: a lamp integrated into a floor sweeper. I’m pretty sure this is a prototype at the moment as I do wonder about the usefulness of a top-heavy handle: it’s a bit cumbersome to have a lamp shade and light bulb in your face while you clean.
Vitamin also makes garden gnomes (of all things) which are much hipper than the traditional terracotta ornaments that decorate lawns. Styled after the squat, nubby toys that are popular in the urban vinyl scene, these bone china figures are adorned with a nice variety of graphic designs. Although they’re outdoor friendly, I probably wouldn’t leave them outside–we all know what kids like to do with gnomes (g). My faves are the glow gnomes that are available with an internal light: very cool, just like the rest of Vitamin’s d furniture
