Baker Furniture


I love the collection of Baker Furniture.
This American company speaks the language of style; fluent!
They are not trying to be trendy, but to be timeless. You can’t put your finger on their style. Is it vintage? Is it antiques? retro? modern? It doesn’t matter what it is, it’s gorgeous! The accent is on the product, from design to finish.

Sensei Chaise Lounge Chair

At the beginning, a Dutch craftsman named Siebe Baker worked with his hands to create simple yet sturdy wooden furniture. The success of his company allowed his son, Hollis Baker, to study at university, travel the Old World, and become a connoisseur with the eye of a collector. Today these two thoughts, the eye and the hand, remain the cornerstone of Baker Furniture. I love the vintage and antique feel and look of their products.

Baker commissions several renowned designers to design not only the furniture but also the entire room and concept. They sell an experience almost. In this video top designer Laura Kirar talks about her collaboration with Baker.

The company now introduces LOS! It is the design old classical lamp in contrast with this modern technology.

City Lofts for the Urban traveller


Designer pied à terres, that’s how MyCityLofts describe their recently launched home-away-from-home apartments in the Dutch city of Rotterdam

Dutch architect Arlette Goslinga buys, remodels, decorates and personalizes apartments in the most sought after area’s of Rotterdam. She turns them into wonderful loft-like short- or long stay rentals. Arlette oversees the remodeling and decorates the places herself. From the tiles in the bathroom to the spatula in the kitchen drawer; she pays equal attention to all. There are even books on the shelves. The idea is to make guests feel like they are living in Rotterdam for at least a while.
