    • Chairs:      Barcelona    Mies van der Rohe  ( licensed copies: China ? )
    • Table:        Noguchi + COR glass side

    Bedrooms:

    • Ye Olde Danish Teak  throughout    /c BL2000 + 3500 + PC/TV  M-L

    The wife and I like the Gaggenau, but to choose between two passions, B & O wins out.

    I agree. We've economised in other areas (e.g. guest bedrooms, etc.) that don't see much use, and gone for a few really nice pieces downstairs, which is all interlinked 'open-plan' spaces so has to look great throughout!  Also, it's something we look at/sit on/enjoy every single day and in my view worth the expense (and the process in getting it right). Of course, now it's perfect, we're now looking at moving house...

    I have this shelves for keep my CDs colection tidy up:

    http://www.puntmobles.es/UK/product/1/p1a.html

    Great Spanish design.



    Love the look of these - we had them before the MDF Italia ones. But we found the quality not so great as the design - the holes weren't drilled in exactly the right place, the oak veneer had some rough edges... we were so disappointed. We then went with B&B Italia - can't remember product name - before finally ditching it all and going with MDF Italia. Expensive process, sure, but now it's perfect!

     I´m agree with you, although they have improve the finished. Do you know something similar to keep a huge amount of CDs?

    Well, of course I'm biased, but I can't recommend MDF Italia's solutions highly enough. You can configure many of their units (e.g. whitecase) with large drawers whose bases have integral CD racking. It's a great solution, although not maybe for a really huge number of CDs. The advantage is that you can have a large number of CDs very easily accessible when you want them but completely hidden from view the rest of the time.  http://www.mdfitalia.it/mdf/index.html

    Thanks Greg, very nice. But I think that it isn´t necesary to have all the CDs hidden from view, I love to see them Wink, and you are right, for a huge number of CDs there isn´t enough room.

    Regards.

    Suite :

    3. Bathroom & Toilet accessories

     Axor Citterio


     

    Brilliance, clarity, and harmony determine value for the Axor Citterio line and reawaken awareness of the ritual character of the element of water. Every surface, transition, and joint captivates with harmonious resolution in the field of tension between angle and curve. 



     

     

     

    Luxury reveals itself here in detail for example, the finely crafted hot/cold marking that impresses with its precision. Antonio Citterio has redefined the bathroom.

     sofas are from rolf benz.

    Always liked Rolf Benz. My favourite sofa is 222.

    My sofa table is Clips from Danish Eilersen.

     Most of our home goes in a Scandinavian style (surprise!).

    This Funky One furniture looks great in your very neat living room. In fact it's well integrated in this contemporary designed environment.

    Mr Ander(son)

    That table is beautifull,as is the rest of the room.

    Do you know if the table would be avaiable to the U.K at all?

    And is it hugely expensive?

    Thanks in advance for any answers.

    Hey Stig...that Samsung fridge with mini-bar ain't too bad either.....got the silver nano to kill off the bacteria too........love the ovens though.... very cool....I love that blue glow..!!

    That looks like the exact fridge I just got for Colombia....last week...If you've had that for a year or so...it makes sense as South America is at least a year behind in electronics, etc....

    Re: Home Furniture

    Hi frank

    I got it 2nd hand think it 2-3 years old, very nice fridge. the only thing I dislike about it, is that it uses the same power as 6 European fridges Huh?

  • 08-02-2007 8:16 PM In reply to

    Re: Home Furniture

    Really...??? sucks the power.....i'd thought Samsung would be a better mark than that.... I just got that fridge in Colombia for $2700 USD......new...electronics there are very expensive....and hard to find....we waited 2 months so we could get good stainless to match the rest of the kitchen....crazy...

     What brand are those ovens??

  • 08-03-2007 5:06 PM In reply to

    Re: Home Furniture

    I thing the newer ones is better, but it's the mini-bar thats to blame for the power consummation. poor isolated compared to the rest of it. I payed about 1150$ a new here will cost about 2200$.

    the oven is a gorenje costs 2350$ + 500$ for the micro cover on top (list price), there are also fridges and so on in same design.
