Furniture Color Trends

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

Metallica Bombe Chest

Metallic hues like gold, silver, bronze and copper are becoming more and more popular in the home as well as in fashion design. This unique piece from Currey and Co. has artistic flare that will draw anyone’s attention. The shape and style are modeled after ancient Chinese furniture.

Wood tones that feature large grainy textures are taking place of the popular java or espresso tones. Stained furniture often means that you are buying anti-”green” home furnishings. Unless the piece has been stained or sealed with a water based treatment the furniture can not be considerd eco-friendly. So beware the green washing and look to more natural tone like the one seen here from Oggetti.

Tall Sideboard

Orange is very popular right now as are reds and other warm tones. Warm toned furniture might be bold or loud but when placed in the right space with other color appropriate furnishings and wall color it can be right on the money. This tall sideboard in orange from Red Egg has so much personality that your other furniture will be jealous. Now I’m sure you are wondering what other colors you’d incorporate with orange and the answer is: blues, browns, white or hot pink. Think FUN FUN FUN!

Cocktail Table

Go Green! In this case we don’t only mean Eco-Friendly but we mean the color. I know that adding green furniture to a space might be a little on the nose but the color is hot this fall and will make a great impact on your earthy interior. Using colors from nature is a perfect way to bring the outside in and when you mix greens with browns like in this coffee table from CR Currin it makes a great statement.

Oceanic

My Favorite furniture Color trend is BLUE! This desk from A. P. Industries has an oceanic feel and great sensibility. Now I know what you’re thinking, “That piece belongs in a boys room.” well blue furniture isn’t just for boys any more. Adding an occasional piece like this to your space gives you a sense of artistic expression with out going over the top. Simple is better and when working with colored furniture that is key to a great overall design.

Dining Tables at Noir Trading

Noir provides solid and strong well built tables. Hand finished, hewn surfaces give the impression of vintage, but well kept.  To achieve better quality control, Noir’s furniture is manufactured mainly from their own factory in China and Indonesia.  They select lumbers from well-known suppliers who guarantee their drying process specifically for export.  On larger panels and backs, they use plywood to minimize the risk of shrinking or cracking. -35

All finished are hand applied and sanded repeatedly, then finished of with a lacquer top coat or wax.  While they take measures to protect their furniture from climate difference in the US.  Exposure to direct sunlight can cause warping or even cracking.  Because of this, they strongly recommend,  solid wood furniture should not be placed under direct sunlight.  Also, in their warehouse they carry a wide array of one-of-a-kind furniture and accessories.

Don’t let Timeworks Slip By!

Friday, March 27th, 2009

1896

Timeworks is a company that when we first opened Mig and Tig Furniture we picked up.  Timeworks has grown, but still remains hands on, service driven and always ahead of the curve with their designs.

lc18plcb18p

Timeworks has a broad line to choose from.  Their pricepoints are excellent and offer the consumer great value.

wwbox-open

One of the things I love about Timeworks is their packaging.  If you are a gift giver the package just is an added bonus to the cool product they deliver.

webster

Timeworks has the eye for replicating antique, cool product.  Clocks are not mundane when see what Timeworks has to offer.  Find out more about Timeworks and contact the woman in charge:      ADunn@casabellaonline.com or 312.670.0760

kowalski_brothers

Timeworks began with three brothers and an idea- to create a line of historically authentic clocks, which would be both affordable and functional. Timeworks clocks are made individually, by hand- most of them at their factory in Berkely, California.

Attila’s Bayshore Art Studio

Friday, March 20th, 2009

z26_bigz23_24_big

This small company based in San Francisco has specialized in sculpture reproduction for more than 35 years.  They offer original designs as well as classics.  All are available in several finishes.  They cast their pieces in molds using a variety of gypsum cements.

ca99_bign1_2_3_big

Attila’s Bayshore Art Studio was originally started by Attila’s father, who emigrated to the US from Hungary.  With a love of antiquity and painting he developed many of the finishing techniques they use today.  While working together, Attila was able to absorb his father’s brilliance in color and texture at a young age.  They worked together for a number of years until he felt his son was ready to take over and graciously stepped aside.

ca3_2_1_bigu54_55_big

Attila Tivadar now works closely with designer and architects in bringing new designs and colors to the company, in the European tradition left by his father.  Attila continues to bring you the antique reproductions which has made the company famous.
