Verpan – Wire. A table lamp made of a cylindrical wire frame ending with a hemisphere, Wire is just one of many designs exemplifying Verner Panton’s talent with color. The upper part of the lamp is equipped with a hemispherical plastic screen – available in yellow, orange, white, or brown.

check this out!! www.g2art.com

Aren’t these lights gorgeous!! You can buy them at the above email address.  If you are importing into New Zealand be careful anything over NZ$400 will incur an importing duty and GST which I have been burned with a couple of times.

Curtains in New Zealand

Posted in Curtains, General on July 31st, 2010 by Stacey

I was shopping the other day because I want to improve the layout of my messy office and I was searching for shelving.  What a tragic offering out there.  Nothing I want, over priced, and not well made.  Then I remembered my blog!!  The people I suggested make great shelving duh, I’ll use them lol…..which then had me thinking about curtains.  Now if you want great curtains at a cheap cheap price, get your fabric, measure your window and the length from about a foot above your window to the floor, if you can, because this is how you should hang curtains to make your room look larger and grander, and then take this information into:

Sharma De Silva, 276a Kohimarama Road in Kohi……..she is so lovely and an amazing seamstress for dresses, duvets, anything you need sewn this is the lady to see.  you can call her to arrange an appointment on:  521 5785

If you want fabric, go into Jenny at Warwick in Parnell and have her show you great quality fabrics at decent prices and email me from the REM Design website to arrange getting it for you.

Cheers everyone, hope this is useful to some of you.

Inspirational Undergrade Blog

Posted in General on June 30th, 2010 by Stacey

Wow a cool new discovery blog, check this out!!! Here are some examples of the cool things in this blog:

If you’re stumped on what to do with your boring white walls, take some cues from this room! (above) The furniture and decor is left to the bare minimum. And one wall is filled with everything from posters, photographs, and artwork to records, album sleeves, and magazine pages. I love the big statement piece that reads “All that is gold does not glitter. Not all those who wander are lost.” Gorgeous. And I love the quilt on the bed, too.

How to make Desk Cords go Invisible

Posted in Decorations, Desks, General on June 30th, 2010 by Stacey

UNDER THE TABLE:
A great example of this done properly is one of our favorite running examples; the “under-the-table” wiring management system. Above, Blupics demonstrates how it’s done by incorporating grommets, screws, zip-ties, and cable management systems.

Have you heard of Woofy?? We sell him on our REM Design site…..he even has his own my space page:

There are many options for hiding cords, many containers that can be added under the desk. There are also options to go wireless now with bluetooth.
