For those of you who love trendy and sophisticated living ideas, here is a beautiful idea from Refin Ceramiche that really caught my attention today. Refin Ceramiche is a company specialised in high quality floor and wall tiles, and at this project named Arketipo they wanted to create a naturalistic interior design, by using nature-inspired materials. Now what I like the most at this project is how a few pebbles can make from a banal space a very interesting one. While I was looking at these pictures a few new interior design ideas related to pebbles popped into my head, and I hope I’m not the only one who got new ideas from this post.

I was totally fascinated by this contemporary black rug designed by Liset Van der Scheer, because combined with a few pieces of black furniture, and a few white chairs you can get an amazing design. The base is made of wool and polyester knots to guarantee a quality surface. The polyester fibre threads are notably very strong. The carpet model allows the hair thread to sway in different directions, giving it a varied appearance in combination with brightness. Finnaly you can get this chic, radiant and strong, hand tufted in a wool and pylyester base rug from Casalis.

This contemporary sofa ( Risve Verona ) has truly been designed for the senses. The beautifully sculpted sinuous lines, elegantly curved downward-sloping back rest and overall seductive shape can be appreciated from virtually every angle. The richly appointed leather has been hand-selected, cut, and sewn to precisely fit the body contours. Every piece in our collection is available in a wide range of coverings including leather ,ultrasuede and selections of your favorite fabrics. And lastly but most importantly it is exceptionally comfortable.

Designed by award-winning Swiss designer Michael Steffenhagen for Selamat Designs, the reo line incorporates traditional materials into a fresh contemporary look. Made from rattan pole covered in rattan peel weave, this substantial chair is as comfortable as it is stylish. The detail and quality is immediately apparent when one sits in the chair (it takes a weaver one-week to make one chair). The line is available in a robust espresso finish or a natural/unstained rattan. It currently includes the lounge chair and ottoman with a two-person loveseat and accent tables available summer of 2008. Fabric options and COM are available for the cushions. Price : $2,226.00 & for Freshome readers with the cupond code : SELAMATSPRING you will receive 10% off ANY purchase at Selamat.

We all know that small spaces, require compact living, and when the size of the room is limited we have to find ways to maximize the small space of our apartments. A piece of furniture that can help us achieve this is this dining room set called Cube Style, a very cleverly piece of furniture especially designed for small apartments (as you probably know, space is at a premium in Tokyo). The Cube Style is not to confortable, but for a small apartment where the space is limited this is an ideal piece of furniture. Available at Dinos. - Via - Treehunger & Neatorama
