How lovely are these? The idea of mixing and matching as shown here would certainly look nice, but whether you have an 'amazing design experience' or not is up to you.

the dome light forms the center of the home with its glowing light of eternal peace. a beautifully simple style in red, black or white, this pendant light has a soft and sophisticated chic that brings a luxe edge to contemporary minimalism. launched at the 2008 milan furniture fair the dome light series are made of a steel wire frame covered by a polyester stretch fabric. to get an amazing design experience try mixing and matching with other pendant lights in the dome series.

Do-lo-rez Modular Sofa--
$15,189.00-$22,572.00, Buy it here.

I almost had a heart attack when seeing the price tag, but it's worth checking out just for eye candy.

ron arad's unconventional design approach always creates a challenge in the way materials are used in both the design and production stages. his new do-lo-rez mixes and merges the worlds of the arts, design and technology. do-lo-rez is a very up-to-the-minute sofa composed of several soft, square-based cube- or rectangular-shaped units of various heights. the units are arranged in rows to form the shape of the sofa, and fixed to a platform by steel pins. the units all have a 9"x9" footprint while varying in height from 11.8" to 30". they are made of different-density polyurethane foam; a stiffer foam is used at the bottom of each unit in order to grip the steel pin, while softer foam at the top ensures optimum comfort. do-lo-rez units may be rearranged to form a wide variety of shapes and compositions.
