The fun Fred Splash Bottle Opener at Rose and Radish for only $7.00. Can't beat that.

Your Drain


I never really thought about the lack of beauty in a sink drain till I saw this sink drain from The Ornamented Life, Netherlands. Designer Joana Meroz has taken the drain to new levels. Compare the standard to this beauty. At Rose and Radish.

How Cool Is This




Metro is a ligthing fixture made with one foil of 3M film OLF and two foils of polycarbonate, that structures when the packaging is unrolled with a simple gesture. Metro is not only a lamp but a system, a way to structure bidimensional elements creating a strong an efficient self-structured object. That's very cool.

Metal Art By Bernard Collin



Bernard Collin began metalworking at an early age in his native Burgundy, France, developing his natural abilities to create his unique style of intricate work. The artist's appreciation for the gifts of Mother Nature shines in every piece he lovingly creates. Collin creates his work by first sketching a design on sheet metal, then freeing the form with a plasma cutter. As a final step, he painstakingly bevels the edges to bring his work to graceful life.

The Paintings of Edda Jakab





Though abstract, the soft blue forms found all through Jakab's work suggest a soothing, calming element. Water, her all-powerful symbol of life and energy, remains an important focus throughout the oil on canvas work. Edda passed away in the spring of 2007. The remainder of her work is being signed by her husband. She will be missed.
