Weird Furniture: Globus
Although I've been feeling globe shapes lately, I must say the Michiel van der Kley Globus ($8,775) is one big piece of weird furniture. It is described as a "compact personal mobile workstation," but is basically a desk and and chair on wheels in a big white ball. Its rotating chair and pull-out table top are revealed when you crack open its globe shape, and you can close it up and roll it away if you want to work in another room.

Vivienne Tam Launches Upholstery Furniture Collection
Fashion force Vivienne Tam is taking her modern Chinoiserie home — to your home. She's partnered with Rowe Furniture to create a new collection of custom upholstery furniture, including multiple sofa groupings and accent pieces.

Found It! Christian Lacroix's Chairs
My recent post on Christian Lacroix's Paris pad, which is up for sale, was a hit with you all. Of course, who could argue with its gorgeous Parisian architecture? It was also chock-full of original art and a hodge-podge of one-of-a-kind furnishings.
Trend Alert: Magical Mushrooms
Maybe it was a natural follow-up to the garden gnome trend, but it seems as if the interior design world has gone a little wild for the mushroom motif as of late. From high-end fungi such as the Artifort Mushroom Chair ($2,529)
to more affordable items like the Paper Cloud Mushroom Pillow ($75), there's no reason not to ensure that each of our homes has some fungus among us.
Whether you like your mushrooms modern and candy colored or woodsy and lifelike, there's plenty to choose from in the design world.
