Casa Craving Recap: A Home Away From Home
Last week I asked you to design a hotel room. The challenge was a little reminiscent of the final Design Star challenge. I also suggested that you take a look at the Home Away From Home posts, or take inspiration from some of the favorite hotel rooms you've stayed at over the years.
Ask Casa: A Home Office for Two
Hi CasaSugar,
My boyfriend and I are moving into a small one bedroom, but luckily the living room is quite spacious. As children of the digital age, we always have our laptops out for work or school. Is there some sort of space-saving desk that allows for two workstations at a time?
Casa Verde: Weekend Green Home Tours in LA
I wanted to give a heads-up to any Casa readers in Los Angeles about a series of events coming up in the next three weekends. These events, which will showcase the newest in green building, will take place at project7ten in Venice.
A joint project between builder Tom Schey and environmentalist Kelly Meyer, the recently completed LEED Platinum-certified project7ten is one of the most environmentally friendly homes in California.
Casa Beta: Home Decorators Annandale Jute Area Rug
Jute/natural fiber rugs are a great versatile, nondescript choice for every room in the house when you're not trying to make a statement but rather just pull a space together. I'd been looking for one for a sitting area in my home, and found that the prices really ran the gamut. I've seen super-simple 5-x-8-foot sisal rugs for only $50, and thicker jute rugs like Pottery Barn's Flat-Braided Jute Rugs for $300.
Casa Shops: Janus Home
If you're a fan of mid-century modern design, then you'll want to make a stop at Janus Home, a showroom located in downtown Portland, Oregon. The store stocks a variety of high-quality restored mid-century furnishings and decorative arts. They are available for design consultations and custom uphostery consultations as well.
Ask Casa: Brocade Home-Esque Linens?
Dear Casa,
I am very much into brocade, Victorian-inspired prints, and anything with a fleur-de-lys on it! I'm looking for a new duvet cover, and was wondering where good online stores would be to find these types of prints? I love pretty much everything at Brocade Home, that is exactly my style, however their bedding selection is quite small and nothing really strikes me.
Casa Shops: Sprout Home
Sprout Home — with boutiques online and in Chicago and Brooklyn — is the rare store with a hip selection of both house and garden goodies. Its earth-friendly enthusiasm extends from gardening gifts to goods like soy-based candles and furniture made from sustainable Brazilian wood. Sprout also sells garden design services, and the Chicago shop even offers a service where customers get a box of organically grown produce every month.
Home Away From Home: A Skate-Inspired Hotel Suite
Skateboard label Etnies is rolling into the world of hospitality. The California-based brand has designed a skate-inspired hotel suite in Laguna Beach's Casa del Camino. But you won't find any Etnies logo monogrammed sheets here.
