Design show at Mandalay Bay

Tomorrow kicks off the Hospitality Design Conference and Expo at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas! Not only will the design industry get a peek at all the new products...images below are just a few interesting things that would make a hotel or restaurant design pretty cool. Although I will be going to the Miami show in September, I will miss this one--so designers, please give me a full report!


 

Limbic Chair--need to be limber?

When I first saw this chair, I was flabbergasted---does it look like a human body actually could fit in a contraption like this? But apparently, the LIMBIC CHAIR is being regarded as the most ergonomic office chair around. And a hefty pricetag of $8500, lets hope it delivers!

South Beach Design

A couple weeks ago I had the pleasure of attending the HD boutique design show in South Beach, Miami, Florida. There is never a bad reason to go to SOBE, so this was a perfect time to get plenty of inspiration from not only the hotels and restaurants, but the show itself...

First, a beautiful new hotel called The Mondrian: black, white, with outsize columns, marble and patent leather....at once simple and outrageous:

 

Then came the show itself....checkout the outdoor furniture that looks like classic French furniture....one was submerged in a tank of water to show durability (last pic). Also loved the artwork, tiles---ready to get to work with all my new sources!

 

Fluffy things...

Love layering different size pillows like they did on their website here...

so many choices...check it out!

Just got a few pillows for clients from a new site that I love: Designer Fluff. 

Simple little things...

A few occasional tables I love...the Platner (mcm classic) and a handmade
limestone top from Salvations.
