Nice and New: Lace Shopping Basket at the Container Store
You might have seen the Design House Stockholm Carrie Shopping Basket when I featured it in my Not Your Grandma's Lace Trend Alert, or even snuck a peek of it used as a magazine holder in my very own house. I must admit, I shelled out $44 for the basket from Zinc Details — kind of a lot for my shelter mag storage, but I couldn't resist! When I caught it selling for $37 at Unica Home, I felt a little cheated.

Coveted Crib: Wallpaper Magic
Wallpaper continues its reign in 2009, in good part because beautiful designs are readily available to the public through companies like Walnut Wallpaper, Ferm Living, and Graham & Brown.
This Stockholm home, which was featured in Skona Hem, is chock full of wallpaper, and as you can see, it works wonders. Though much of the furniture was thrifted, and the family purchased inexpensive Ikea kitchen cabinets, the range of show-stopping wallpapers makes each room instantly luxurious.
In the News: Ralph Rapson Dies at 93
Ralph Rapson, one of the most prolific and oldest practicing architects, died of a heart attack on Saturday at 93. Modernist in style, he was best known for his design of the former Guthrie Theater, which included "a thrusting stage and asymmetrical seating that made the audience seem like part of the dramatic action." In the 1940s, he designed his own line of furniture for Knoll, including a popular rocking chair, the Rapson Rapid Rocker.
Ask Casa: Plastic Lace Basket
Hi Casasugar,
I was recently browsing your site (very nice!) and saw something I hope you can help me get more info on. I saw a DIY on making your own cereal box magazine holder, and there's a pierced plastic lace basket that I love. If you have or can get any information on this, you'd be my best friend forever.
Casa Shops: Zinc Details
Zinc Details is a modern furniture and home accessories store based in San Francisco, showcasing functional, durable, and affordable design. Joined by a passion for the modern furniture classics, after graduating from Berkeley in 1990, Vasilios Kiniris and Wendy Nishimura founded the store with the intention of selling not trendy modern pieces, but those with integrity and lasting value.
Nearly twenty years later, they have outgrown several shops, begun an extensive e-commerce site, and become the major Northern California distributor of KnollSpace home furnishings.
