There's nothing I like more than a piece of furniture with a story to tell. Check out this chic chaise.

The tufted upholstry and ornate arms allude to days gone by, while the heavy, clean lines of the legs bring it back to the future. Rooted in the past, but fashion forward enough to look dynamite in any room, be it sleek and modern or shabby chic.

And what's even better? There really is a story in this seat- it's upholstered with vintage New Zealand post bags. There's no junkmail here, kids. This is the real deal. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to pen a love letter to the designers at Union, post haste.  Signed, yours truly.....

I'm a little lovesick. For weeks now, I've been pining for this wooden bedframe by Design Mobel. It's a modern spin on a classic four poster bed. The design maintains the romantic sensibility of the four poster, updated with super clean lines and a little twist. Modern day romance does exist. Sigh.

If you're lusting for more than understated romance, beef up your bed with Design Mobel's various integrated accessories.

Like a Bose sound system if you want a little bass in your bassinet. Or, if it's time to turn on the red light (Roxanne), a pendant light with four color settings should do the trick.  And if you want to hide away those unmentionable bedside necessities, an optional drawer stows everything out of sight. 

All these bells and whistles make this four poster prodigy sound more like a flashy automobile than a bed. But hey, if the romance fades away, the fancy features should keep things hot and heavy. 

Sweet dreams.
