Periodic Concrete Coffee Table by James DeWulf Is A Formula For Hip Home Decor

James DeWulf of DeWulf Concrete (the very same craftsman who made this awesome concrete combination ping pong table/dining table) has designed and crafted this Periodic Coffee Table of low relief concrete with a powder coated steel frame.



The elements relief cast into the table are set in a square of polished concrete and are shallow enough so as not to tip over a glass or vase filled with liquid.




Measuring 54" long x 30" wide x 16" tall, the contemporary coffee table is available with a 1" or 1.5" concrete debossed and polished top (also available with a plain concrete slab top if you'd refer not to have it with the periodic table of elements) in either natural or smoke colors.






With an appointment-only studio in Santa Monica, the high-end precast furniture and architectural products from James DeWulf is available by contacting him via email or phoning him at 310-315-7100. Select pieces can be found at H.D Buttercup and other reputable furniture dealers.

As Beautiful Coming As Going. The Givenchy A/W 2012-13 Haute Couture Collection.

The Autumn Winter 2012- 2013 collection of Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy consisted of only 10 designs. But those ten designs are absolutely jaw-dropping with their impeccable detailing and craftsmanship.



Mixing elegant feminine silhouettes reminiscent of the 60s combined with the opulence of Gypsy-like capes, elaborate trimmings and edgings, Tisci has created pieces with as much attention to the rear view as the front view.




Each element is laden with complicated handiwork: beading, fringe, basketweave-woven leather, even mink - sheared, shaved and cut out to resemble embroidery and as trim. I can't do the collection justice with words. Just look at the breathtaking photos from the collection's debut in Paris.

These ten pieces really exemplify Haute Couture:
