The problem with this is the art itself. Who chooses this stuff? I realize that art is totally subjective, but c'mon, some of the "art" around town is plain junk.

This ordinance doesn't go far enough. The money raised from a percent for the arts should go for more than just public art but for school based arts programs and performances as well. Palo Alto sits in the shadow of Stanford where for the first time in their history, real progress is being made in expanding their dollar commitment to the arts. Palo Alto should follow suit.
Public art funding is essential and the percent for the arts is just the beginning. I encourage all Palo Alto staff and elected officials to support this effort.

Is there any estimate out there on how much this 1% will generate?

While the Indianapolis Colts were at long last able to get over the hump this past weekend, the Houston Texans and their rookie fill-in quarterback encountered their first bump in the road in quite some time.
The AFC South champion Texans will try to bounce back as they resume their quest for a potential opening-round playoff bye in Thursday's clash with the bottom-feeding Colts, who'll be seeking to build off their initial victory without Peyton Manning under center in 14 seasons.
If they don't win, however, the Colts will clinch the first pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. The St. Louis Rams and Minnesota Vikings both sit at 2-14 but the Colts would own the tie-breaker if all three teams finish with 2 wins overall. A loss Thursday night would guarantee Indy could do no better than that.
Houston will be trying to make some additional history in what's already been a momentous season when it takes the field on Thursday. The Texans have never beaten the Colts in Indianapolis in nine previous tries, nor have they ever swept a home-and-home set from their division rival in the same year.
For more on the Colts head over to Stampede Blue. For more on the Texans, check out Battle Red Blog. Follow the rest of Week 16 regular season action at SB Nation NFL.

Former Dean is Queen's new Vice-Principal of Advancement
Professor Tom Harris, a former Dean of Applied Science, longtime faculty member in the department of Chemical Engineering, former department head and alumnus, is Queen's new head of Advancement.
"Tom's obvious passion for Queen's and advancement extends beyond alumni relations and development to building our reputation at home and abroad," says Principal Daniel Woolf. "He has been a very successful fundraiser for Applied Science and more broadly for the University. He has excellent personal relations skills and great connections with alumni across the country and around the world. I look forward to working with him closely as we gear up for our next campaign."
Professor Harris's five-year term starts January 4, 2010.
"During my time as dean and department head, I came to fully appreciate the impact that the support from Queen's alumni and friends has on our education and research programs, and on the lives of so many students," says Professor Harris. "I have also seen, on many occasions, the great satisfaction that supporters derive from their interaction with faculty and students. I look forward to working with the Principal, his senior leadership team, the talented staff in the Office of Advancement, the deans and directors, faculty, students, alumni and volunteers."
Professor Harris graduated from Queen's with a BSc in 1975 and returned in 1986 as a faculty member in the department of Chemical Engineering. He was department head (1992-1996) and served as the Dean of Applied Science between 1996 and 2007, when he returned to the department to continue teaching and his research. He plans to continue teaching a course this coming semester.
"Tom has a strong reputation at Queen's as a leader and a decision-maker," says University Rector Leora Jackson, who was a member of the search committee. "His popularity with students and alumni, dedication to our institution, and excellent past development record will make him an exciting addition to the senior administrative team."
Professor Harris's Queen's roots are deep. He is a lifetime member of the Queen's Alma Mater Society and a recipient of the Engineering Society's Golden Apple for excellence in teaching as well as the T. Geoffrey Flynn Advancement Champion Award. His wife, daughter and brother are also Queen's graduates, and his son is currently pursuing a doctorate at Queen's in mining engineering at the newly named Robert M. Buchan Department of Mining.

British woman fell overboard from P&O Cruises' Aurora during Mediterranean cruise from Southampton
6:50pm Saturday 29th September 2012 in News
RESCUERS searching for a British woman believed to have fallen overboard from a Southampton-based cruise ship in the Mediterranean have recovered a body.
The passenger was reported missing on the Aurora as it sailed from the Portuguese city Oporto to Barcelona yesterday, P&O Cruises said.
The ship's crew were alerted and ordered an immediate search of the area which failed to find the as-yet unnamed woman.
However, shortly after 6.30pm authorities said a body had been discovered in the sea.
Authorities have been providing assistance for the missing woman's family, the cruise operator said.
The Aurora left Southampton for a 14-night western Mediterranean cruise on Wednesday.
P&O Cruises confirmed all passengers on board were British.
A statement from the firm today, before the body was found, said: "We can confirm a missing female presumed overboard from Aurora sailing from Oporto to Barcelona. The ship turned round to search for her and all relevant authorities have been advised.
"Aurora is on a 14-night Western Mediterranean cruise which left Southampton on Wednesday September 26. Our care team is supporting the family and offering assistance."
Passengers on the Aurora expressed their shock today.
Pat Rodgers, 70, from Sheffield, said the missing woman was believed to be in her 70s and on holiday with her daughter.
Mrs Rodgers said the water had been "very choppy" and people on board were "sad and subdued" as a major air and sea search operation took place.
She said: "The captain made an announcement over the loudspeaker at 8.10am this morning and asked everyone to help keep a lookout.
"There have been planes and a helicopter circling overhead and the lifeboats are out. The helicopter has gone back to Lisbon now to refuel. We can see other cruise ships and cargo ships all helping with the search.
"We heard that the woman is 72 and was on holiday with her daughter but we don't know how she fell in.
"The passengers are all very sad and subdued as the outlook doesn't look good. The sea is very choppy. We are just so concerned for this woman and her family. It is awful.
"The crew have been great. They are keeping things calm and the captain is giving frequent updates."

It appears this lady went overboard from her balcony.An announcement asking her to contact the reception was put out at around 8am.Not much later it was announced that someone had fallen from the vessel.
The ship sailed from La Coruna on Friday evening and this incident happened on Saturday early morning.
The ship was turned round and started looking for the lady, other vessels were alerted and helped with the search - a helicopter also joined in but had to go back to Portugal to refuel- a fixed wing aircraft then came on the scene.
The Aurora searched all day, and one of Thompson Cruises ships helped. it was after 6.30 pm when here body was located and a liferaft with three very brave crew members recovered her body,
The Captain had kept us all informed,
and did a fantastic job as did all the crew.involved in the search and recovery.
It is not clear how she fell from the ship,but it would be very difficult to fall over the ships rail accidentally.
I believe she was travelling with her husband but some reports say she was with her daughter.
My sincere sympathy goes to her family and friends. A lot of passengers on board the ship were affected by this tragic incident,but were all glad that they were able to recover her and bring some closure.

For most Americans, the cost of food hasn't always been such a big deal.
For the better part of the last 30 years, food supplies were plentiful and the economy provided enough wealth to keep cupboards stocked.
But my how things have changed since the financial meltdown of 2008. Today, food inflation has more people concerned about the cost of groceries -- and how they're going to pay for them.
Yet for investors, the same food price inflation dilemma presents an investment opportunity that is ripe for the picking.
With that in mind, agricultural stocks are where to look for the low-hanging fruit as food prices keep heading higher.
Food Price Inflation is Good News for Agricultural Stocks The average annual increase for grocery prices between 1990 and 2011 was a reasonable 2.8%. But since 2005, the International Monetary Fund's food price index has increased by 90%.
Meanwhile, the implied volatility for the most important traded commodities such as wheat, corn and soybeans is up by more than half.
All of this began in 2008. Food price inflation really began to take off when commodity prices soared and home prices plunged.
A combination of factors added fuel to the fire including converting corn and other food stuffs
into ethanol, a growing middle class in emerging countries like China, and a jump in oil prices.
What's more, food prices surged again last year on the heels of a drought, a wheat export ban in Russia, and bad weather in Argentina and Australia.
Since then things haven't gotten much better.
The latest USDA commodity price forecast predicts 2012 beef and chicken prices will increase by 9% and 5%, respectively. That comes after many food items posted double-digit increases in 2011.
It is no wonder people are struggling.
Food Price Inflation Hits a Tipping Point Up until now, food price inflation has been held in check by producers and manufacturers afraid they might lose business by passing on cost increases to retailers and consumers.
While large multinationals such as Unilever (NYSE: UL) and Nestlé SA (PINK: NSRGY) have been absorbing the extra costs through cost cutting and productivity gains, smaller and midsized producers have struggled.
But all that may be changing...and fast.
A global survey by Grant Thornton shows that mid and small manufacturers who have been squeezed by higher costs for seeds, fertilizers and other supplies plan to charge retailers more over the next 12 months.
The survey, which covered 11,000 businesses across 39 economies, found that 41% of food and beverage businesses expect to increase prices in 2012, compared with just 12% a year ago.
In short, producers are now willing to push higher prices for raw goods on to retailers where the consumer will pay more.
"There are scenarios throughout North America and elsewhere where these players are now going to retailers and saying: "We have absorbed too much here and prices have to go up,'" Jim Menzies, global food and beverage industry leader at Grant Thornton Food, told The FT.Agricultural Stocks Poised to Gain As the planet's population explodes, the amount of arable land available for planting isn't able to keep pace. Over the past 50 years, grain production has doubled while arable land use has increased only 9%.
That means spending to boost agricultural yield is the most viable way to increase production and keep prices from soaring.
But while a short-term boost in food price inflation hurts, humans have used their imagination to come up with long-term solutions to many tough problems.
"Human ingenuity has a good track record of overcoming nature's constraints so far. A commodity bull market is really just a bottleneck, and, as a species, we've succeeded in bottleneck removal," Société Générale strategist Dylan Grice told MSN Money.
Investors should focus attention on low-cost commodity producers and the equipment providers that supply them, he said.
Here's how.
Governments around the globe and regional communities will have to spend big bucks to improve crop yields. And that means big profits for companies like Deere & Co. (NYSE: DE) and Agrium Inc. (NYSE: AGU).
Fertilizer prices also have nowhere to go but up and that bodes well forCF Industries Holdings Inc. (NYSE: CF). The company is trading at just eight times earnings, despite sales growth of over 50% the last two years.
Another good way to gain exposure to the big trend is the Market Vectors Agribusiness (NYSE: MOO) and Global X Fertilizers/Potash (NYSEArca: SOIL) ETFs.
Finally, you might consider the SouthernSun Small Cap Fund (MUTF: SSSFX).
According to Bloomberg Markets, the $300 million fund, whose largest investments are in agriculture and construction equipment companies, returned an average of 41.1% per year for the three years ended on Feb. 17.
Either way, one way to ease the pain of food price inflation is by investing in agricultural stocks.
Unfortunately, food prices aren't going lower anytime soon.

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSTomblin Announces Home Testing Program; DEP Director Says No MCHM Involved In Slurry Spill
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported: Feb. 11, 2014 4:20 PM EST
Updated: Feb. 12, 2014 8:39 AM EST
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (Jeff Morris) -- Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin announced at a news conference Tuesday that he is launching a West Virginia Testing Assessment Project that will include a home water testing component.
The governor said he has allocated $650,000 in the budget to fund the work of an independent scientific team. The team will first initiate a project that will do an extensive at-the-tap study. In addition, Tomblin said the team will do "odorless" tests of MCHM, the chemical that leaked into the Elk River and led to a massive water crisis in nine counties. The governor said a national group of experts also will be assembled to focus on water quality at the tap.
"It's time for to let the politicians step aside and have scientists step in," Tomblin said.
Dr. Andrew Whelton, who will be part of the team, said at least one home in each of the nine counties that were affected by the chemical spill will have its water tested. He said Kanawha County, the largest county in the affected area, will have two. More than 100 homes will be added after this initial test group.
Meanwhile, Randy Huffman, cabinet secretary for the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, gave an update on the coal slurry spill that occurred near Winifrede in Kanawha County. Huffman said no MCHM was involved in the spill as initially believed, and that it was another "medium." It has now been identified as polypropylene glycol.
Huffman said the spill occurred at the Kanawha Eagle Prep Plant, a Patriot property, and the initial estimate is that 108,000 gallons escaped after a coal slurry pipe ruptured and the material escaped secondary containment. The spill went into a tributary that goes into the Kanawha River.
The DEP secretary said the cleanup is under way. Tomblin said tests of the water involved in the spill are being rushed to a laboratory.
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (Jeff Morris) Join WCHSTV.com for a live online news conference Tuesday on a home testing program for water.
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin has called the news conference that is expected to begin at 4:45 p.m.
Many people have expressed concern about the safety of their water since a Jan. 9 chemical spill in the Elk River. The governor's office previously said it was working on putting together a home testing program.

New supermarket scheme for Ludlow (From Ludlow Advertiser)
Get involved! Send your photos, video, news & views by texting LU NEWS to 80360 or e-mail us
New supermarket scheme for Ludlow
1:29pm Monday 9th June 2014 in Ludlow
THE possibility of a supermarket and petrol station in Rocks Green would damage local shops according to a Ludlow Councillor.
Vivienne Parry, who represents Ludlow on Shropshire Council and also sits on the town council, was commenting about a presentation about a potential development at Rocks Green behind the Dun Cow Cottage.
Ludlow Town Council has been told that if the proposal went ahead it could create up to 250 new jobs.
But the scheme is at its very early stages and the work needed to support a formal planning application has still not been done.
Simon Hoare from a property development company outlined the idea at a meeting of Ludlow Council's representative committee.
No supermarket chain has been linked with the potential scheme.
"I would have very serious concern as trading conditions are very tough and this would kill some of the smaller shops in the town," said Cllr Parry.
"It is very important that Ludlow retains its character with many small independent shops."

As long as Hamas remains armed, its weapons represent the strongest and most violent veto of peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians alike.
There is a realignment of forces in the Middle East based on the common concern with the dangers posed by radical Islamic terrorists. I'd like to translate this understanding into cooperation and peace between Israel and our Palestinian neighbors.
On Tuesday evening (Aug 26), the Egyptian Foreign Minister announced a ceasefire, which entered into effect at 7 pm. Since July 8th, 4,562 rockets have been fired at Israel from Gaza, killing six civilians and wounding 127.
Both terrorist organizations view jihad and suicide attacks as primary tools. Both terrorist organizations persecute and oppress non-Muslim minorities. Both organizations execute people who are suspected of supporting their opponents.
Israel continues to facilitate the entrance of goods and aid to the Gaza Strip, as well as the transfer of patients requiring treatment to Israeli hospitals through the Erez Crossing.
Matash, a Public Security Ministry development, predicts how a forest fire will spread and helps authorities make better decisions to fight it.
The unique climate at the Dead Sea offers healing benefits that bring people to Israel seeking relief from chronic skin, respiratory and joint conditions.
Following the severe floods which have hit the country recently, the State of Israel sent a shipment of emergency kits to aid the affected victims.

ATL had one sack today. It was a big one but Bruce held it too long.Add a decent C and get Buenning back at LG and this line is ok. The run blocking needs to improve.Easier to get a new O-line coach than bring in more players for Muir to screw up. The Saints have a patchwork line and that has worked great.
The players have talent and 3 of the 5 are young players and can only get better. Get a better offensive line coach in there and they'll be better. Muir is a joke!

Chocolate Chip Almond Cookies Recipe
My husband likes the flavor and texture of these cookies. Milk chocolate chips and sliced almonds make them deliciously different. My mother-in-law shared the recipe with me.
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, salt and baking soda; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips and almonds.
- Roll into 1-in. balls. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 9-11 minutes or until edges are firm. Remove to wire racks to cool. Yield: 4 dozen.

More than 200 people attended the Cancer Survivors' Day event put on by the Bassett Cancer Institute on Sunday at the Otesaga Resort Hotel in Cooperstown. This year is the 26th annual National Cancer Survivors' Day and the first year the event was held at the Otesaga Resort Hotel.
"The generosity of the Otesaga is a huge reason we are able to do it," said Susan van der Sommen, administrative director of the Bassett Cancer Institute.
The Bassett Cancer Institute serves the local community with sites in Cooperstown, Oneonta, Herkimer, Sidney and Cobleskill. For many, this day is a chance to celebrate and to be with fellow cancer survivors and the staff that provided them with care.
"It's nice to see the patients that have successfully gone through treatment and are doing well," said Krista Goins, a nurse at the Cancer Institute. "It's like a happy ending."
"It is a chance to celebrate life and to see a lot of people that I know, especially my angels," said Sallie Harrington, a cancer survivor diagnosed with ovarian cancer. "I call my nurses who take care of me my angels."
Harrington was first diagnosed with cancer in 2002 and has been receiving treatment on and off since then.
"I lost my husband to lung cancer in 2007," Harrington said. "We did chemo together."
Charlie Lustman, a musician and inspirational speaker, performed his original songs about his own struggle with cancer. Lustman founded the Musical HOPE Campaign and travels the world to spread his message of love and hope to other cancer survivors.
"The cancer patient is considered a survivor from the day of diagnosis," Sommen said. "They're in the process of overcoming, so today is a great opportunity to celebrate life."
The Cancer Survivors' Day was first celebrated in 1988 said Dr. James Leonardo, a doctor of oncology at the Cancer Institute. At that time people diagnosed had a 50 percent chance of living and now, in 2013, people have a 70 percent chance of survival, Leonardo said.
"Cancer can take away all of your physical abilities but it can't touch your heart and it can't touch your mind," Dr. Leonardo said.
This event is put on annually by the doctors, nurses and support staff at the Bassett Cancer Institute.

Let's face it...the mere act of walking through a grand space makes us feel, well, grand. A night at the opera, a wait in the airport or train station, an overnight stay in a hotel--in each of the world's greatest lobbies, we experience a connection to something bigger than ourselves.
There's just something to big-ticket public spaces that thrills and inspires. And there's a lesson to be learned too.
Within even the grandest lobby, there is an undeniable intentionality to the usage of space. Whether it's the Calatrava-designed Liege train station at the top of this post, or the Saarinen-designed TWA terminal in New York, floorplans are laid out to effect the logical movement of people. Spaces are sub-divided creatively to address a variety of tasks: encouraging relaxation, facilitating administration, inducing awe. Lighting is designed (and often adjusted throughout the day) to increase safety and add atmosphere.
The best thing about this? These same considerations can be applied to the home, no matter how small it is.
Do you eat, sleep and live in a single room? Create sub-spaces. Make sure the sofa or entertaining areas are easily accessible by guests. Keep a table and chairs close to the kitchen for an impromptu dinner party. For living room furniture, choose low-profile designs to "raise" the ceiling in small spaces.
Baby Anime Stackable Kids Armchairs
Does your bedroom double as an office? Use a swing arm wall light or adjustable floor lamp to shine light where and when you need it.
Bernie Turbo Series Chrome Swing Arm Holtkoetter Wall Lamp
Do you have Michelin star ambition but a small kitchen? Make it a castle by hanging pots and pans rather than stowing them. Choose open-face cabinets or shelving to cut down on the confined feel. Use colors that increase the illusion of space. White can open a room up and charcoal can recede into the background,
Yes, large hotels do have the large square footage to impress. But just because you might not have it too, doesn't mean you can't still flaunt it. At home, a little space planning can go a long way.

"Think Different."
Hasn't that become the de facto war cry of the digital age, ushered in ever so presciently in the early 90s by Apple Computer?
Well, thinking differently isn't just for the the geek chic computer set anymore. A recent article in the New York Times suggests that the lighting industry is in the midst of a Silicon Valley-like LED lighting revolution:
"Up till now we only thought — do I have enough light to see, to clean my room, to cut a diamond?" said Ed Crawford, a senior vice president of Philips Lighting Americas. "Now it impacts what I do, how I feel, in emotional ways."
As cost continues to drop and quality continues to rise, LEDs (and their ability to replicate a wide range of colors), are leading the charge. In fact, colored LED lighting is being used to do everything from settling the spirits of frazzled Virgin America airline travelers (pictured above) to managing jaundice in newborns. It is, in a sense, much more functional than meets the eye. At the consumer level, some LED ceiling lights even change colors to suit the mood.
But lighting is getting smarter too. There are park lights that turn on only as joggers pass by, and street lights that can detect noxious gases. There are light bulbs that can be dimmed and color shifted, all through a mobile app. And soon, public lighting could be networked to monitor traffic or direct cars to vacant parking spots.
While the technology is still in R&D, consumers are already beginning to see benefits. Famed Italian designer Alessi recently released LED bulbs at a very eye-pleasing 2700K color temperature:
LED AlessiLux Silver Decorative Light Bulb
And energy-efficient LEDs have made solar powered path lighting (and the added safety and security they provide) a viable consumer option for years:
Pewter Solar Lantern Outdoor Landscape Light
The question is: what's next? Instead of wall lights, we may see interactive lighting that covers entire walls. Instead of remembering to turn off the lights, our homes may do the remembering for us. Whatever comes next in modern lighting, you can trust we'll be chasing it down.

All of the white that is being incorporated into rooms in magazines and blogs is seriously addictive. It's so fresh and clean and easy. I love the idea of a mostly white scale living room with little pops of color here and there. That is pretty much my dream living room at the moment!
This living room is kind of perfect. It doesn't have any kind of loud style and it's not over the top decorated. It is just plain and simple white. It's totally a space that you could work with and even redecorate when the time came without too much hassle. It could easily be made into an eclectic room with a combination of styles and patterns, or a more rustic or industrial space. I love a space that has the main essentials or foundation that you can easily build off of with the right pieces. This is that room!

This chair is pretty popular, which makes it fun. The legs are amazing! And the white seat would go great with pretty much any cushion or throw pillow. The light fixture is pretty rad. It's both modern and organic somehow, which I absolutely love. It's a statement fixture without being too over the top. The stool would be fantastic for additional seating or even putting by the front door for an easy place to take off shoes. And the pillow is the fun one. Even though there isn't any color, the bold black and white makes it really pop which is awesome.

One of the most important details that goes into decorating a living space is the coffee table. It's a piece that can sometimes be forgotten but it's one of the most important parts of the room.
When decorating an eclectic space, I love to use modern coffee tables. They can become the anchor to the space. When designing a minimalist space, it fits like a glove. This space (above) is a great mix of traditional and modern. The coffee table accents the sofa and chair perfectly.
This vibrant room (above) has lots of color and patterns happening. The simple white round coffee table isn't competing with the rest of the space and looks super stylish against the other pieces.
Another important note about coffee tables is don't over think styling them. Display books, candles, flowers and decorative accessories. Basically anything that is low to the table. Make sure it's items you love and you want your guests to love and appreciate.
We've always known that coffee tables are a practical solution to set our drinks and feet on. Now we know that they are as important in design as they are for our TV dinners. Below are a few awesome coffee table options that will work in any space.

Modern kitchen design is something that many people admire from afar, but don't actually get to explore the concept behind. You may love the simplicity of a kitchen, the unique shapes, or innovative materials, but how often are you able to capture the story behind the design and really have a true understanding and appreciation for the concept and place where it originated? I had the pleasure of exploring the 800,000 square foot Schiffini factory in Ceparana, Italy, and spending quality time with the wonderful Mr. Schiffini himself as he took us to his favorite places in Cinque Terre where many of the concepts for his kitchens originated.
Schiffini was established in the 1920s to supply nautical fittings to the Italian Navy dockyard in La Spezia (above). They later made their way into the residential market and became the first Italian company to introduce the modular kitchen. They continue to stand out as one of the best Italian companies for design and innovation.
The G-One kitchen (above) is made entirely of marine grade plywood and I bet you all can see where the inspiration for this kitchen came from! The soft curves and durable materials pay homage to 50s design while designer Giuliano Giaroli was able to transform these elements into a beautiful design of today. It's neither too retro nor too nautical, but a perfect blend of styles with the quality and craftsmanship to make this a timeless kitchen. The cluster of modern pendant lights floating above the island appear almost as if they are buoys hanging from a dock.
Jamie Young Petit Paro White 64 1/2-Inch-H Modern Floor Lamp
The soft curves and mixture of natural linen and white lacquer in this modern floor lamp (above) has a nautical influence with a sophistication and elegance that make it a timeless piece.
The next stop on the trip was in the incredibly gorgeous sea side town of Venazza (above) which deeply inspired the Cinqueterre kitchen that just happens to be Mr. Schiffini's favorite place. The steep cliff side is covered in vineyards and the waves crash freely into the town, creating something magical. The colors, smells, sounds and overall experience is something that's hard to even explain.
The concept behind the Cinqueterre kitchen (above) is the rolling waves of the sea. The handle represents the breaking crest of the wave as it's about to crash into the rocks. Each door is assembled by hand in the factory with such precision and detail. Designed by architect Vico Magistretti, the Cinqueterre is the first kitchen produced entirely in aluminium. This model is available in black and anodized aluminum as well as titanium and each one is spectacular in it's own way. There is something about the black mixed with the wood and copper top that sets itself apart from any other kitchen out there. After visiting Vernazza, the place where the concept originated, and watching the fine craftsman build each door by hand, I don't think there is anyway you can't appreciate every detail of this kitchen. It's like a modern work of art!
Jamie Young Gun Metal Modern Spotlight Floor Lamp
Finding pieces with history and a story are a great way to add character to your space, whether it be with a modern kitchen or even something as simple as a new modern lamp. The industrial floor lamp (above) could help you incorporate a little nautical edge into your own home don't you think?
