Wish List: Eight fabulous finds for our lives and living spaces
There’s been a rise in demand for bespoke unique design executions for luxury bathrooms.
Freestyle by Versatile lets the customer create the bathroom furniture of their dreams. The luxury vanity units can be created within any budget, to fit any space, in any colour, finish or style; see www.versatile.ie.
At Danish company Søstrene Grene, no celebration goes unnoticed. We love the colourful Easter egg ornaments, €2.78.
I can’t wait until the evenings are warm enough to linger outside. Just so we can hanker after set-ups like the ‘glow garden’ parasol.
It’s a wireless affair with LED lighting that can be switched upwards or downwards for direct lighting, or just upwards to create an ambient, cosy atmosphere. It’s €999 at Caseys Furniture; see www.caseys.ie.
Fancy a consultation with an award-winning architect? Meitheal Architects is participating in the RIAI Simon Open Door initiative which offers advice on building, renovating, and retrofitting while supporting efforts to address homelessness across Ireland. You can book a consultation with Meitheal following a donation of €120 that will go directly to the Simon Communities.
The practice has a client portfolio of over 2,100 homes under construction, and its completed projects include the boathouse wedding venue at Sheen Falls Lodge, Kenmare, Co Kerry. To book visit see www.simonopendoor.ie.
It’s like shooting fish in a barrel. You’ll find 220 home improvement pros under one roof at the PTSB Ideal Home Show when it returns to the RDS Simmonscourt from Friday, April 26, to Sunday, April 28.
They’ll include architect Hugh Wallace, garden designer Diarmuid Gavin, Irish interior designer Susan McGowan, pictured, and British interior stylist and designer Sophie Robinson. See www.idealhome.ie.
Did someone say breakfast — or brunch? Easter means many of us are thinking of freshly baked hot cross buns and Neptune’s ‘Emily’ linen tablecloth, from €160, in the soft and clean Salt can elevate any gathering. See Neptune.com for Irish stockists.
Calligaris kitchen stools from Kube Interiors look cool around any island or peninsula and are designed to be practical and stylish.
The Oleandro, from €750, has a curved back, padded cushions and sleek lines. It’s available with wooden or metal leg options. See www.kubeinteriors.com.
Spotted online, the Dyson Solarcycle Morph™ light in Prussian Blue and Copper, €549.99, adjusts the light it emits depending on the user’s task, age, mood and local daylight.
Its makers say they developed a light that tracks natural daylight and "intelligently transforms for different uses — providing the right light, at the right time, precisely where it’s needed". It’s available from www.dyson.ie.
