Wood Casting
Israeli designer Hilla Shamia joins the materials of aluminum and wood in order to create the Wood Casting series. Using a whole tree trunk, she pours molten aluminum onto the wood. The wood gets cut up and put into a mold to form the frame and legs of the piece. Each piece is unique!

Decorating With Cable Spools
Wooden pallets are still appearing everywhere. Lets have a look at cable spools and how we can use them to decorate our home. My aunt has one of those since 2 decades ago, long before repurposing old stuff became a trend. She uses it for table in the garden and I remember thinking how smart idea it was!
Tables are the most favorite makeover of a cable spool. It can be a beautiful and handy coffee table. You can let the wood show or you can paint it as you like.
It could be a great piece for the playroom where your little ones can draw or play on them as they like.
A fabulous piece for the dining room! One of the most poplar ideas is this table that provides great book storage as well. It can be transformed into a nice stool! You can put a glass on the top or wrap a sisal rope around the base. How about a mini bar? |
They can be used greatly even in a retail shop! They are very popular outdoors, make lovely and cheap tables for your patio or your veranda. |
You can make rocking chairs out of them. |
Really useful little things, aren’t they?
A View Inside The Temporary Showroom
Just in the last post we talked about Collector’s House, the ravishing home of Alketas Pazis. Now we’ll have a look at his trading house in Athens, the Temporary Showroom. It has been operating as a prop house for the filming industry and contributed to the sets of more than 950 commercials and film productions. Located in a 400 m2 factory from the 50’s, it offers the most extensive collection in Greece while it focuses on the avant-garde modern movement.
Enjoy the beautiful pictures!
