A flower has no reason

...says the poem. Here is an interesting specimen seen on trade show Première Classe (or was it Who's Next ?) Anyways. Rest your eyes for a sec or steal the idea for your own home decoration. Enjoy the week-end!

Hail to the Elle

This week's issue of Elle in France features Martine Camillieri's book : "Détourner les emballages". To create her "bidons-camions", she uses all kinds of containers, from milk to soda bottles. The trendy shop Colette dedicated a window to her fancy work at the end of last year (picture). She makes jewellry boxes out of matching caps and toys out of detergent bottles... I must say that the magazine Elle is a a great source of green topics. Hail to the Elle!

DIY

Hi there. Here a few design hints. Take a fresh look at what you are tempted to throw away. Here milk plastic bottles turn into vases for a super zen atmosphere as seen at salon "Maison Passion" in Paris last month.

Spiky Green Creature

The designer Alnoor gave a garden party outside his small gallery at the Village St Paul in Paris. Flowers bloomed as lamps in shades of pink cherry blossom or purple. I also liked a blue suspension which made me think of drops of water. But my favourite piece is Kaktussimo, a giant incense holder made of cristal!
