Under the Sput(nik) Lights

Hey!

Late post today! But not the least! Today, I selected a few pics representing one very iconic lighting : the Sputnik pendant!

I really love it! I love design pieces that give a bit of quirk and some vintage vibes to a room.

None of the room pictured below would be half as amazing as they are without the sputnik.

Even that wonderfull pink bedroom!

Mushroom Lamps!

Hello!

Look at the pretty pretty lamp Jenny bought for her girls lately!

Mushroom lamps are such a design classic. I think it's a very easy and cheap way to add quirk, uniqueness and vintage style to a room.

I spotted some very pretty mushroom lamps in some of my favorite stylists/bloggers.

Emily Henderson loves them :

Also does Irene from Bloesem. She had two awesome specimens in her old house. The orange one is my fave among all!

Victoria just published this example last week from the Ikea book Beloved Homes.

And I discovered this blog today, looking for more examples. The author did a very nice Hollywood Regency's selection of mushroom lamps. I you'd like to check it here.

I am always happy to find new sources of inspiration.

Ideas for the Dinning Nook (3) : The Bertoia Chair

I am so so glad we (my boyfriend and I) made up our mind for the chair of the dinning nook.

I wanted a modern classic chair.

At first, my choice was the Eames chair.

I still love them, but I think they are a bit too industrial for me and would work better in a kitchen.

Then, I was truly loving this model from Habitat.

Which matches our office chair. I love how the leather warths up our interior. This is glam and cozy. But I think it would be too matchy-matchy (with the office chair) and quite "heavy" (because of the chrome and the leather).

It's not stricto sensu a design classic, but it reminds me those beautifull mid-century rooms.

Some other chairs came in discussion, like the Saarinen tulip chair.

But finally we agreed on...

 the BERTOIA WIRE CHAIR!

I love that's unformal yet elegant and that you can play with cushions to make it cozier or lighter. We still have to make our choice for the cushions though...

Apartment therapy just published an article on this modern classic chair.

And you? Do you like modern classics? Which is you favorite? Have you some? I'd like to know...
