In fact, the very same idea of a post and beam support with its refined and intricate design is proudly demonstrated here. This LA based designer chose Baltic plywood not only to showcase the material’s strength but also to assist in the detailing.What a clever concept!!! It has a sister coffee table which is detailed and constructed in a similar but different manner, and both are meticulously built for long lasting enjoyment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/02e3c198-faeb-4ce9-ae22-48686f2aba7c/etsy-sofabed.jpg Break_the_norm - ETSY Find - USA edition - BetoGonzalezWOOD Custom Made to order Japanese Inspired Daybed turned into overnight queen sized guest bed.

In order to lower the cost of each quality build piece, much of their furniture comes flat packed and installation is tool free.

In order to showcase the best of these wood species, clear and non-VOC based coating is used to protect the pieces. Reclaimed wood furniture often projects an aesthetic which can be more rustic. If you want to incorporate these meaningful pieces into your interior, pick pieces that are simple in form to allow the wood grain to do all the “talking”. https://www.yinwaiau.com/ywablog/screentime monthly 0.5 2022-01-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/5dd54139-b862-4fb3-b624-3027783b3078/TV+stand.jpg Break_the_norm - Screen Time - Canvas on Stand Mid-Century Decor will never run out of style, and natural wood tones bring warmth into every space.

The wooden legs are switched out with these ingenious metal hairpins for a more industrial feel. This powder coated hairpin leg is not only strong but elegantly versatile. I have shown you how to DIY your Dining table under “The Memory Maker” blog post some time ago, and here is another great example of how great design can take you from the dining room to beyond. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/d3709da5-1415-4d7e-86e9-3c41c0f4464b/TV+stand-+Italian+2.JPG Break_the_norm - Screen Time - Creative Easel Instead of showing you how beautiful a TV looks from the front of this easel stand, I'd like to draw your attention to the thoughtful design from the back, which cleverly accommodates storage for a streaming box https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/920d8936-65c7-42d7-8daf-e0cff8c7c986/TV+stand-europe.jpg Break_the_norm - Screen Time - Wheel Everywhere If mobility is key to your indoor lifestyle, whether it's small studio living or an office conference layout, then these cluster wheels will certainly glide through any space with ease. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/a7f916a7-c44e-40a8-9840-0c4d74f14ca3/Samsung+The+Serif+3.0+TV+2020.jpg Break_the_norm - Screen Time - Black to White A clean white, tailored profiled frame takes this Screen from ordinary home to Museum worthy.

Simple white cabinet with a milky effect glass door. The glass panel itself is semi-transparent which allows the infrared remote to work properly, while hiding away all the wires and black boxes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/3d0d57ac-20c8-45d2-af35-3e70fbc2e8a4/W-DWR_2531361_100216841_ivory_f.jfif Break_the_norm - Screen Time - Sophisticated Industrial A boxy metal cabinet can easily project an overly industrial/dorm vibe which may not work for modern/ contemporary decor. However, this metal cabinet was elevated from rustic industrial to a sophisticated cool by refining many details including the use of warm white paint and solid wood dowel handles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/0af675d8-b1ae-43d4-b118-0bb2185dd483/TraceBrssMeshDrMediaCrdnzS18.jpg Break_the_norm - Screen Time - Rich and Earthy These slim brass door frames with wire mesh panels fit all the basic requirements of a good media console. The best part is when the subtle warm hues of brushed brass softly reflect light and bring a little “c’est la vie” into the room. It is as much a functional piece of furniture as a jewel. To keep the overall design elegant but not over the top, I would suggest using a balanced mix of off white/ creams and earthy tones throughout. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/74c3c89b-75f9-4e1b-9836-0b35b6454697/Media+console+-+bluedot.jpg Break_the_norm - Screen Time - The Hero Drawers Another remote-friendly version of the metal perforated door panel comes in a few more finishes. Alternatively, this credenza will work beautifully in your dining room as well. The two drawers in the center make storing and organizing special occasion table settings or accessories much easier. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/320bae5f-5440-42ed-a529-00b63f023232/Westelm+metal+perforated+console.JPG Break_the_norm - Screen Time - Add a Little Curve.

You can either mount units on the wall side by side or put them together back to back to make one deeper cabinet. Do make sure to secure from the back for extra stability. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633565503077-ATRNVBUINY90DXND8W84/Shoe+cabinet.jpg Break_the_norm - On Your Way In - Stand Tall and Proud These shoe cabinets are very similar in design to the “Slim and Simple” one. The difference lies in the body material and size. This one is constructed with an MDF body which is a slightly heavier material in weight. It is also slightly deeper and has options for three or four tiers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633565931917-39A6QV6P5KO1C28GD9OA/Ikea+shoe.JPG Break_the_norm - On Your Way In - Stack to New Heights Ikea has a few shoe storage solutions to choose from. The design is minimal which is great if you want it to disappear in a space. This particular unit caught my eye because of its full depth design allowing you to hang another unit over it to make it a full height shoe cabinet. Great for smaller Entryways. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633566322231-WGJDBFK6GY5LZHD9N76M/Luka-Cabinet-Walnut-D5.jpg Break_the_norm - On Your Way In - Look at Me If your entryway is more generous in space, consider picking a quality furniture piece instead. Use it as a greeting point to welcome you and your guests home.

For example, these cork stools which appeared in our “Break the Coffee Table Norm” post, can be used to build up a coffee table cluster. If you feel like you need to refresh your home, instead of purchasing new items, first consider switching a piece around from room to room. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633016724135-7Q6PQ4OUCI55EMXZUT5U/cm1-stlday-wh_34_high_common-stool-white-day-leather_1.jpg Break_the_norm - On Your Way In - A Bench Does All This piece from “A Bedside Table Story” post was used as a night stand and fits right at home in an Entryway. Simple forms work well in many spaces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633739983605-0H0TSHLCGJX55DMM45GC/ch1_bnchwo_ts_frontlow.jpg Break_the_norm - On Your Way In - Bench Story If your Entryway is generous in space, consider clustering up 2 to 3 round stools like the cork stools shown above, or go for a bench from “The Memory Maker” post. You can easily go with any one of the benches from the same post as long as the size fits your space. https://www.yinwaiau.com/ywablog/divideandconquer monthly 0.5 2021-12-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1632851633385-VN4O73KID3UHJPDPHVUS/Hem-Packshot-June2016-photo-Ernest_Winczyk-122_copy_2048x2048.jpg Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - A Shelf to Show Off Don’t be fooled by this beautiful design. The “Zig Zag Shelf” in fact comes flat packed thanks to its clever accordion folding design on a supporting frame. Stretch the solid oak frame open and snap the horizontal shelves over it. Instantly you have a shelving unit that divides your space elegantly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633536427996-WRJD4I11KJ6E4VI41CQE/04dAQZMg.jpeg Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - Lift to New Heights Steel is a material that has high compressive strength, meaning it is very good at supporting weight from above. An X-Frame is commonly used to resist lateral loads in high rise buildings. (Imagine strong winds as a force coming at you horizontally). The designer took advantage of these two strengths by putting them together to bring us the “Lift Bookcase” resembling a scissor lift. We can see why this sturdy bookcase looks as light as it is. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633558939856-551UPA6F0BRUJ4UPXQCN/westelm.jpg Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - Dividing in Style This thin iron shelving unit comes in three colors: White, blue/green and yellow.

It is made out of a sturdy thin metal frame. The Yin and Yang opening provides us with endless configurations. Use it as a room divider, or let it sit shoulder to shoulder for the extra privacy you need. Want a more airy feel? Try giving some space between each unit or turn alternate units front to back to create a checkerboard pattern. Tell me what other great ideas you can come up with using this versatile design!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1632845269652-K9ZDHJUUJHAE7EOJGKK7/go-cart-white-five-shelf-rolling-bookcase.jpg Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - Back to Basics If you are looking for something more utilitarian that still fits into your modern dwelling aesthetic this one is a strong contender with its basic white coating over a trusty metal frame. This budget unit even comes with wheels for extra mobility and the 14” deep shelves will host your home office equipment very comfortably. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633542142168-685VYNWNBR7O8HBKVSQ4/KonMari_KonMari_Book_Set_1_99902_1200x.jpg Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - Keep it Organized Open shelving can sometimes become a place for visual clutter. However, if it is done right, it can be a great place to display your books and memorabilia as well as office supplies. Utilizing baskets, boxes and trays helps keep small items and tools looking more orderly and aesthetic. If you need inspiration in the organization department, my favorite expert is Marie Kondo, and I encourage you to take a look at her method. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633544649563-8GX5K66UEHX219Z79N5L/ikea+flet+basket.JPG Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - Felt that Feels Good If you need multiple storage baskets on a budget, this IKEA open box is a great option. The felt body is made with recycled polyester and comes flat packed in a cardboard box without any plastic. It’s soft to the touch and minimal in its design. Smart design that “felt” good! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633546352741-TJUAJU3G4NQZ9O37MMUE/slash-objects-rubber-and-brass-basket-set-in-gris-slash-objects-792025_1200x.progressive.jpg Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - A Mission Put in Motion This Brooklyn made, 100% recycled rubber catch-all by Slash Object, not only looks good, it literally helps our communities.

Thanks to the recent trend, this basket can now be easily purchased in many of your local furniture stores. Like the name, most are made out of a very sustainable and renewable material, seagrass. Some are made by local artisans who pay Fairtrade wages, some are not, so please choose wisely and support Fairtrade products whenever possible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633551806782-5GKC68MQ1EOQNYT9LIJB/WaterHyacinthBinMd_x.jpg Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - Make it Stand Out Another renewable & natural material I'd like to show you is the Water Hyacinth bin. The skeleton of this box frame is made out of sturdy wire which is infinitely renewable. The outer skin is wrapped with native aquatic plants that will decompose naturally at the end of their life cycle. Of course, in an ideal scenario, we would want it to be passed on to the next user, but if it doesn’t go as planned, we don’t want it to stay behind for the next few hundred years either. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633553024184-BUOA8GR4EKWV4367OPJG/bamboo+bin.JPG Break_the_norm - Divide and Conquer - The Wonder Grass Bamboo is the wonder material nature created for us. Its tensile strength is higher than carbon steel, and that’s why you can find many Asian countries still use bamboo as a stand alone structural element. Besides its many uses in building environments, this wonder grass grows super fast compared to trees, which makes it even more sustainable than wood products. Here's a bamboo box that wonderfully showcases the beauty of this material. https://www.yinwaiau.com/ywablog/daytonight monthly 0.5 2021-12-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1632943338357-67HLRDM2TBL5MH1SN8A0/Hem+sofa.jpg Break_the_norm - Day to Night - His name is Palo Hem’s “Palo” modular 2-seater by far is one of the most comfortable and handsome sofas I have sat on.

An ultra large push sofa may be tempting for movie watching. As comfy as push sofa maybe, having a meal on it can be a messy affair. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1632504418431-Y631W5NZVTMEL29VUIQB/dining+table+2.JPG Break_the_norm - The Memory Maker - The Art in Engineering I fell in love with this design for its unapologetic display of engineering and craftsmanship. The detail is carefully considered from the legs to the screws on the rail. The leaf on each end can be extended independently.

I love how it is situated in our open plan home as a centerpiece for gathering or you can pick other color combos that work best for your home’s color scheme. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1632492753627-MGDFJ5J0E1X6L0KXFQQX/Calligaris-Delta-table2.jpg Break_the_norm - The Memory Maker - Children friendly If you have a little one at home, a glass surface probably isn’t the best of choice for a daily use item.

If you have access to a salvage yard or Flea market you can often find some beautiful piece of wood slab to build your own table. It is one of those simple projects we can take on with very little help. Etsy is a good place to find some pretty metal bases. If you don’t have access to flea market, try Terramai or Chopvalue.

You may be worry the Art of Mismatch is too tricky to master, so I am giving you a simple rule to keep in mind, pick at least one element of the table/chair set in consistent. For example, It can be the color of the dining set theme or selecting a matching chair design but play with the different colors options like those in the image. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633015403737-VL320IOZRSPAWDUMMT4J/ch1_bnchwo_ts_frontlow.jpg Break_the_norm - The Memory Maker - Bench Basic This is another fun way to break the formality of a dining table. Instead of having 10 individual chairs hanging out over the dining table on the days there is no dinner party, consider a quality bench instead. A well crafted bench can be part of so many different space in your home, may it be the stationary piece in your living room, at the Foyer or in your bedroom next to the window for those cozy afternoon with a good book and a cup of revitalizing tea. There is so much a bench can offer you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57585d8bb6aa60c09231134c/1633276809150-IXXH3M1VODGVGR4641YO/fLATORON+BENCH.jpg Break_the_norm - The Memory Maker - Comfort in disguise This clean line, minimalist bench may not look as comfortable as you may have imagined.

Clear energy enable us to clear out our thoughts. Same principle applies to our side tables, having just a slab of small surface area for the essential limit the amount of thing needed to be around us while we reset.
