It features lovely artwork, rare photographs, a stunning chair, wallpaper that is hairy, an amazing penthouse in Nolita with a lawn and farm animals, and a good deal of nakedness. But it's fairly tasteful...

We're digging these Christmas tree decals from Artware. Each die-cut vinyl wall-sticker Christmas tree is created by a New York City artist and is reflective of their fine art work.

Also: Do you believe in a green water bottle? Do you wash your organic produce? Do you worry that recycling isn't worth it? And, do you have a lot of stray buttons (we've got projects for you...)? We're looking at all these questions after the jump.
Subway Tiles are a very popular, basic choice for modern bathrooms. Illustrator Christoph Niemann has designed a New York City Subway tile pattern for his subway-obsessed sons. A mosaic map of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx wrap around the walls and floor of the bathroom...
I have seen the penny candy variety from anchor hocking that are rounded and have metal tops and I've seen plastic ones, but not glass. I saw these on an episode of "Shear Genius" so I know they are around, I just don't know where. I hope someone can guide me in the right direction. Thanks, Wingpea

Designed as an homage to Josef Albers' colorful nesting tables from the Bauhaus, these tables by Timothy Schreiber are made from anodized aluminum. We love the graphic "arrow" shape the table leg makes and the impact that several of these tables have on a space...

This is the sort of thing that so lovely to look at and so impractical to think about that it qualifies as design porn more than anything else. Designed by Jun Hashimoto and awarded the Design Report Award 2008, the highest award at the Milano Salone Satellite, the Thin Chair and Table represents the most minimal use of materials.
