No rhyme, no reason, no theme, no scheme, no purpose...just some random stuff I saw this week that I'm liking right now. A little this or that or inspiration for the mansion, ranch, home, house, apartment, loft, condo, cottage or shack and anything in between.

Close ups on my week.

P.S. Went to a very nice holiday party at chic textiles showroom Harbinger last night.  Got a chance to catch up with owners Joe Lucas and Parrish Chilcoat and showroom manager Tami. Also was nice to talk with Brian Ferrick, super talented textiles designer and half of Ferrick Mason.  Before running out to a dinner, saw stylish interior designer Ron Woodson  of Woodson & Rummerfeld too.  Party was a book signing for uber designer and t.v. personality Thom Filicia. Then headed to a dinner at Comme Ca.  Fun night.

SMART DESIGN: THE MOLECULAR TABLE!

Casamidy - Molecular Console Table - $1950 (metal and glass console table)

Okay...my Casamidy crush continues...this time in the form of a collection of tables.

You might ask..."Coco...what in the world is a Casamidy crush?".  Appalled, I would reply in a rather snooty tone, "You don't know. How could you NOT know what a Casamidy Crush is...oh my?"  And then, you would probably think, "What is wrong with Coco?  Why is she talking with that funny affected lock jaw accent and clenching her teeth while she talks.  Bizarre."

Anyhoooo....simply put a Casamidy crush is a crush one might have on everything made by the Mexico based furniture design company, Casamidy, that is run by Ann Marie Midy and Jorge Almada..

Today, I bring you their latest - the Molecular Table series.  The tables have metal bases and glass tops.  The metal is an intricate design...almost maze like...based on a German scientific model of a molecule!  So smart...literally and figuratively speaking!

Jorge sent me this image of the German science molecule model that the tables' design was inspired by. (above)

The tables come in nickel plate, gold leaf, silver leaf and lacquer over metal finishes.  There is also a side table with a square glass top.

I love them.  I think they would work well in a traditional home juxtaposed against some classic furniture pieces as well as in an ultra modern space. A great new take on design.  Well done...again...Jorge and Ann-Marie!

What do you think about this smart table?  Could you use a statement piece like this in your home? If so, where...if not, let us know why?

Happy Thursday!
