La Murrina was born on the island of Murano, Italy in 1968 as a collaboration between a few selected Master Glass Blowers, whose skill was a tradition passed to them from centuries worth of generations before them. In 1974, a Milanese family took control of the now successful company. They believed in the traditional art of glass blowing and had innovative ideas that would modernize this ancient art form, as well as the company as a whole. This seamless marriage of the antique and the contemporary has earned La Murrina their leading position as one of the most appreciated and respected manufacturers of Murano glass lighting and dècor products in the world. In spite of common industrial manufacturing processes of modern-day, La Murrina maintains entirely handmade production on every glass piece, allowing their beauty to resonate as works of art as well as functional dècor pieces. Every single item is also engraved by hand, as a guarantee and certification of an authentic and high quality product. The desire to satisfy modern design and architectural needs, together with the importance in maintaining the traditional art is Venetian glass, are ever-present themes for La Murrina and its Glass Blowers and designers. Through unique collaborations and innovative design techniques, we are able to update all of the most classic Venetian glass styles as well as generate contemporary lines of design pieces that satisfy every residential or commercial space.

It’s hard for stylish and comfortable interiors to meet.

When starting from scratch ,with a family of four , trying to express  yourself (it’s my house,it ’s my extension,it’s me) and satisfy all needs ,it is extremely hard.

I do not want o hire  someone else to do the job.It will be consistent then ,but it won’t be me.

If it is me how on earth it will meet my children’s wishes , not to mention my husband’s.

I am dwelling here in order to clear the ideas in my head.

Nothing is clear yet.I just hope that we would not finish like the pair on the picture.

That chair is the perfect expression of what’s going on right now,” said Calgary-based interior designer Monica Stevens, who had flown into town for the recent four-day event. “It’s a bergère, but it’s acrylic. It’s a sign of the times. It’s the minimal shape, but it’s luxurious.”

Call it nouveau traditional. But there’s nothing staid about this new interior design aesthetic. It’s about reinterpreting tradition from a contemporary perspective: A Louis XVI chair becomes thoroughly modern in clear polycarbonate; a wallpapered den looks perfectly 21st- century with a wallpapered ceiling, and an otherwise low-key sitting room reverberates anew with lemon walls.

David Shah, trend expert with international publications such as Textile View and Viewpoint, called the mood “glambaroque” in a recent Newsday article. “It’s an eclectic mixture of colour, pattern, shape, material. . . . It’s about clutter. It’s about putting lots of things together; it can be rococo, baroque, mixed with something personal. It’s full of surprises. It really harks back to the excesses of the 19th-century boudoir.

Who else but Philippe Starck would dare mess with a king?

Charles ghost stool  goes back to Starck’s debut as a designer, when the most loved designer in the world drew elongated and rounded lines. Lines and forms that made his works recognizable at first glance. Characteristics that, together with the use of an exclusive technology such as that of KARTELL allowed for the creation of these completely transparent stools, with a strong aesthetic impact. The shape recalls the seats of the 1800s, with the rounded and slightly curving line of the leg, an icon of the classic stool. Charles Ghost is a transparent polycarbonate monobloc, and as such is practically indestructible and can be used everywhere. It is available in three different heights. It can be used indoors or outdoors, and blends in with every furnishing style and cultural context.

 The ghost of Louis XVI

Seems ever since Phillip Starck reinterpreted the Louis XVI chair with molded plastic, seems a lot of modern furniture designers are taking that cue, and take the shape of the Louis whatever chair styles and start reinterpreting them using modern materials or finishes, and of course selling them at super expensive prices. yes, they are worth it.

In contemporary culture the term “baroque” is also commonly used to describe any artistic style that could be extremely elaborate, ornamented or adorned. In reality, the modern usage of baroque has nothing or very little to do with classic baroque, even though many people are unaware of the distinction.

Modernism is about architecture according to a stripped down functionalist aesthetic ,specifically avoiding applied classically derived ornament .

Postmodernism is a reactionary response to modernism, in which the aesthetic consciously uses historical references, often in the form of abstracted classicism, in an attempt to produce a more culturally connected expression.

Postmodern architecture is an international style whose first examples are generally cited as being from the 1950s, and which continues to influence present-day architecture. Postmodernity in architecture is generally thought to be heralded by the return of “wit, ornament and reference” to architecture in response to the formalism of the International Style of modernism. As with many cultural movements, some of postmodernism’s most pronounced and visible ideas can be seen in architecture. The functional and formalized shapes and spaces of the modernist movement are replaced by unapologetically diverse aesthetics: styles collide, form is adopted for its own sake, and new ways of viewing familiar styles and space abound.

Modernist architects regard post-modern buildings as vulgar and cluttered with “gew-gaws”. Postmodern architects often regard modern spaces as soulless and bland. The divergence in opinions comes down to a difference in goals: modernism is rooted in minimal and true use of material as well as absence of ornament, while postmodernism is a rejection of strict rules set by the early modernists and seeks exuberance in the use of building techniques, angles, and stylistic references.
