Most space heaters aren't the most savvy in design, and many detract from the overall look of a room. And to add insult to injury, almost all of them demand a fair amount of floor space.

Not so with the Eco Convection Heater ($158). This energy-saving unit only asks for a little over an inch-thick diameter area of wall space when mounted, and is less than two feet square. It's also easy to hang, and can be painted to match your wall color. Just one of these will heat up to 120 square feet of space, too! So, not only can you feel good about using an energy-efficient space heater, but your home can also look good at the same time.

Plush with pillows and a well-stuffed cushion, filled with an endless supply of reading material, and perfected with a calm palette, this cozy nook created by New York-based design firm 212box doesn't look like it could get any better. But in fact, it does. What you see isn't only what you get. The master architects have made room for something extra special in this space. No, that's not a magic carpet, but you'll be pleasantly surprised when you read more

Dhurrie rugs are flat, woven cotton rugs that originated in Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, and Tibet, a cousin of the Kilim rug, which is oh-so-popular these days. But the great thing about them is that they're reversible, so you can flip 'em before they need to be cleaned. Since they tend to have soft, pastel colors, this new Ballard Designs Elina Dhurrie Rug ($69-$699) with its black geometric pattern is a departure from the norm, but I love it all the same.
Its knotted crochet fringe is my favorite element: so chic. It would make a great kitchen rug, as it's so durable. What do you think?
