There is nothing like a designer bag to bring out the best of any outfit, not to mention help boost a woman’s confidence. Of all the new bags out there, I am currently head over heals for Chanel’s Boy collection. I loved it since it was introduced last May.
I was thrilled to come across Chanel’s Boy Spring 2012 collection on Purseblog, and will share it with you through the below slide show. The image featured on the top is my favorite, which is yours?
Bottega Veneta has been pretty busy the past few years designing hotel rooms. Above is their latest from the Park Hyatt Chicago. Known for their soft and exotic leather, hotel clients staying in this room will be enjoying this luxury. The 1,400-square-foot suite offers a bedroom, open living room, kitchenette, and two bathrooms. I am expecting a furniture line by them, from the looks of these rooms you can sense a furniture “style” paving its way into the furniture world.
In addition to Chicago, there are Bottega Veneta rooms in the St. Regis of both New York and Rome, pictures below. A new one is to be designed for the St. Regis in Florence as well.
Tonelli will be introducing this smart Prisma Kitchen at Eurocucina 2012. They worked with Experientia, an experience design consultancy, to create an amazingly technologically advanced, user friendly kitchen. The “smart” lies in the kitchen’s island. The island’s surface is equipped with a sliding cutting board and built in Samsung Galaxy Tablet technology for a fully interactive and engaging kitchen experience. Other exciting features include innovative door open/close mechanisms, invisible handles, transparent top with base illumination. All these elements work together to give this kitchen an ultra modern almost futuristic feel, but cleverly wrapped in a timeless design.
Italian fashion house Marni is introducing a new collection of seating during the Salone Internazionale del Mobile 2012. Marni is working with local charities there to employ former Columbian prisoners and help them settle back into social and working life. They created all 100 of these chairs using metal and multi-colored PVC threads.
Known for their great color blocking, it is nice to see them translate this into these chairs.
This is a beautiful residential villa in Mexico by Central de Arquitectura emphasizing horizontal stone and concrete structure. The balance in open and closed areas, the harmony in use of materials is just amazing. The water feature, large glass panels, and wooden floor deck suggests the perfect harmonious structure.
