Awair Air Quality Monitor

Awair Air Quality Monitor
It's a little sad when an air quality monitor is considered a useful tool to have in the home. However, for those of us that live urban areas or have annoying allergies, we can't ignore the fact that air quality directly affects our health. So, meet the Awair Air Quality Monitor. It reads five data points in the air: temperature, humidity, CO2, VOCs, and dust. After analyzing aggregate levels, the...Read more

Bike Spoke Reflectors + 12

Bike Spoke Reflectors + 12
These inexpensive Bike Spoke Reflectors will make sure you're seen in the dark, which is very important because most drivers are idiots (all cyclists know this). At the price, I'd encourage you to buy several packs and trick out your bike so that all the spokes have reflectors; it's extra likely you'll be spotted at night (and it will look fun)....Read more

Shades Double Glass Container

Shades Double Glass Container
It's not often that a storage container gets ooo's and ahh's, but this one deserves at least one of the former for its smart two-tier system. Hand blown glass containers nest together to create separate storage zones with a cork lid to keep contents safe. Store a few visually engaging objects in the top container for a floating effect, or go full-on functional and fill both with necessary home accessories....Read more

Animal Mask Notecards

Animal Mask Notecards
Animal Mask Notecards! Fun, fun, and fun. Each and every recipient of your heartfelt scribblings will get twice the amount of enjoyment from whatever sentiments you share, because they'll have a mask as well. Maybe they'll even attempt to make the appropriate noise for the animal, because if you're going to wear the mask, you've got to pretend to be the animal, right? I think those are the rules.

Hex Cutting Board

Hex Cutting Board
Shoot, I'm such a sucker for geometric anything. Simply facet the edges of an American Maple wood board and I'm already contemplating plonking down a credit card, no matter how many cutting boards already reside in my kitchen cabinets. Now, the faceted edges do make the board easier to pick up (on one side), so it is actually a functional feature as well as a stylistic choice. Crafted in American...Read more

Sacrificial Chair by Thing Industries

Sacrificial Chair by Thing Industries
You might as well succumb to the bad habit of shedding clothing onto furniture. It just takes so much extra effort to put them away. Imagine that last sentence said in a whiney voice, and know that I admit to a little laziness now and then. So, go ahead and buy the Sacrificial Chair by Thing Industries why don't you, and see the pile of barely-used and needs-to-be-cleaned clothes pile...Read more

Nanoleaf LED Light Bulbs

Nanoleaf LED Light Bulbs
Have you seen any of the Nanoleaf LED light bulbs yet? What about the Nanoleaf Smart Ivy? Most LED light bulbs are not attractive, and the Nanoleaf isn't particularly pretty either. However, it is faceted (=dodecahedron) with tiny LED lights in the shape of a regular bulb, and that makes it interesting. There are different variations in size and color, plus the Smart version mentioned before, which you can control...Read more

Hay Polygon Quilt

Hay Polygon Quilt
A reversible, two-tone polygon quilt? Yes and yes. I personally own the Mega Dot Quilt from Hay, and it's the perfect weight for summer use. Now that they've added polygons to the mix, it's certainly tempting... you can never have too many quilts, right?

NakNak Wire Numbers
A little loop-de-loop makes these Wire Numbers by NakNak just a little more fun and carefree than some other super serious house numbers (you know the ones). Luckily, most of us only have one, two, or three digit house numbers, so a numerical facelift won't break the bank.

Afteroom Lounge Chair

Afteroom Lounge Chair
From the front or back, the Afteroom Lounge Chair may not look like anything special, but turn it slightly to the side and you'll see the exaggerated arms swoop forward for an imposing silhouette. Afteroom’s Hung-Ming Chen and Chen-Yen Wei took inspiration from Thonet’s Bentwood Chair and Børge Mogensen’s Spanish Lounge, merging curves in powder-coated steel with low proportions and leather to make an interesting seating option for any lounge....Read more
