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.
Roundup: Global Warming
Global warming is certainly nothing to be happy about, but I am feeling globe shapes lately. I guess I've moved beyond those trendy circles into a new dimension: the third dimension. Looking at all of these fabulous spherical products, I've begun to wonder why everything isn't globe shaped.

Do You Know Anyone With a Snow-Globe Collection?
I feel like there are so many movies where characters collect snow globes, but in real life I've never met such a collector. I saw this collection in the home of Martin Jacobs and Simon Pearce, which was featured on The Selby. It's a pretty extensive reserve, isn't it?

Crave Worthy: Juliska Globe Pendant Lamp
To my eyes, this stunning Juliska "Harriet" Globe Pendant Lamp ($750) looks like it's taken its inspiration straight from the sea. With its spiny protrusions and round body, it could be a cross between a beach-washed shell and a sea anemone. Though now, instead of hiding under the current, the shape has been reimagined for your home, to hang above a table or elegant foyer space.
