For our coffee addicts, cafe lovers and fellow Gold Coast inhabitants Black Coffee Lyrics in Surfers Paradise is yum yum yum and my new morning home! The coffee is superb and the chocolate cake is simply delicious! I guarantee the soup too! It’s urban melbournian environment, friendly atmosphere and changing menu really makes you want to stay for breakfast, lunch and tea.

I stumbled upon this site when lost in the lovely cyber world of design and couldn’t help but share the delightful handpicked art, living products, fashion, photography and more illustrated on “Anothermag.com”. This site is a creative haven that has a little something for everyone, as various “products of luxury” are displayed by several network contributors from around the world.

Here is a sneak peak at what is “loved” and what I couldn’t help but love also!

WOOFY!

May 10, 2011  |  by Greenhouse  |  brands, new arrivals  |  No Comments

Woofy is a relatively new addition to the Greenhouse and a great conversation point of what Woofy actually is. Many people often ask “What does Woofy do?” or “Is that just a dog statue?”. Woofy is no ordinary dog he tidily stows away your electrical cords inside of him, rather than having all your cords laying around Woofy acts as a case.

Recently one of the Greenhouse staff was told about Woofy’s blog by a customer and a fellow fan of Woofy. It’s so wonderful when designers have a little fun with their products. Woofy not only conceals messy cords, Woofy travels the world!

Rock that Glass

May 6, 2011  |  by Greenhouse  |  brands, design, kitchen  |  No Comments

Illustrating another curious inspiration journey the Norman Copenhagen Rocking Glass, designed by Britt Bonnesen, is a wonderful twist of the tumbler norm. Used to serve cocktails, desserts, coffees, snacks or simply as a decoration with flowers, the rocking glass is uniquely designed with a curved bottom enabling it to rock without falling! Unlike Charlotte Perriand’s photographs, Britt Bonnesen’s creative process was admirably inspired by an old movie about aircraft! Bonnesen devised the idea of the Rocking Glass from the tableware, and in particular the glasses that were created to not spill from the vibrations of the airplanes! The rocking movements make the glass a fun, memorable piece, a delightful creative idea and a loved product at the Greenhouse! It was so loved that we recently sold out, fortunately the Rocking Glass will be coming again soon!
