Engine-Inspired V12 Espresso Machine by Espresso Veloce

Everyone around me knows that I am nearly just as happy trawling through car magazines as I am Interiors ones, so imagine my delight when Design Milk Daily Digest bought this bit of Vrroom to my attention!

Johannesburg-based company, Espresso Veloce arguably crafts some of the world’s most beautiful espresso machines. Taking inspiration from complex Formula One engines, their pieces have become an expressive—and functional—piece of automotive art

V12 is the Espresso Veloce’s newest machine. It’s handcrafted from magnesium, titanium, and aluminum pieces that come together to form a top-notch beauty. From it’s modern aesthetic to its intricate inner workings, the V12 embodies the power and design of a 12-cylinder engine.

So now you want some espresso? To start the machine press one of the two buttons (for a single or double shot). A high-pressure pump moves water through an in-line heat exchange and then into the group head capsule. The high-pressurized water passes through the group head, which then dispenses out of one of the 12 titanium exhaust pipes.

Need your caffeine fast? From start to finish, the V12 makes your espresso in 16 seconds flat! But be speedy only 500 have been made!

Bec this one is for you! After our little meeting about how to give life to your wall here are some ideas on how to make a 'bunch of pegs' an interactive work of art that can be changed season by season!

preview of the new Ikea Stockholm Range 2013

Ikea is no longer the daggy wobbly furniture supplier we remember it too be. It reminds us of our student days - a poster in the sitting room and a cannister to hold our dish-washing brush if we felt like pushing the boat out!

Check out the new Ikea Stockholm range - care of Stamp's friend Jen at Interiors Addict! We are rubbing our hands together in anticipation.....

Japanese Wabi Sabi

Japanese Wabi Sabi: Living in Perfect Imperfection

Our lovely friends at Coco Republic sent us this little cultural gem this morning - Wabi Sabi is a Japanese aesthetic that can be quite a challenge to define.  When applied to the field of interior design, I like to think of Wabi Sabi as the most serene of all styles.  It is a simple, modest and honest way of creating an interior space to celebrate the beautiful imperfections of our natural world.  

The natural materials used in a Wabi Sabi scheme are typically timber, stone, clay / porcelain and natural fibres.  Hand made pieces respect and honour the material from which it came, retaining the inherent finish and characteristics.  I love that this practice has the added bonus of keeping artisans and their skills alive.  Endless neutral shades from the natural colour palette emerge from these materials creating a unique and versatile scheme.  

Ideally, a Wabi Sabi lifestyle promotes a tidy, clean and simple space free from clutter (to which I am sure many of us aspire!).  All of these attributes come together to form what I believe is a space of true integrity.

As we are all becoming more aware of our impact on the environment and the effects of over-consumerism, Wabi Sabi is an ideal way to encourage appreciation of how to work with what we have and to make environmentally conscious decisions when purchasing new furnishings.
