I first came across PataPri towels thanks to Greedy Girl and have had a few word of mouth recommendations to check them out since. And all I can say is gimme. My faves are this series of seasonal mountains, so clean and smart.
{via Apartment Therapy LA}+ I’m obsessed with these rotary phones straight out of the British General Post Office of the 1950s to 1970s up for sale
+ I’ve had this environmental art installation bookmarked for ages and now know the back story!

+ These downloads might help you get in the Green Spirit, too
+ Love this sleek silver pourer for the dinner table
+ I’d love to seed bomb the crap outta Midtown!
+ Enthralled by this time-lapse of a book cover design

As I’ve made abundantly clear, I’m all about good jars and container. And these by Burgon & Ball make me want to flip my lid. Pun intended. Sorry, it’s early! Fill them will all of the tasty things you concoct in your own kitchen. {via eat drink chic}
Coral seems to be making a resurgence lately, so I couldn’t help but linger on this set of four kitchen jars by Alessi Mediterraneo. They remind me of something vintage and right out of the 70s. {via Layers of Meaning}
I’ll say it for the record, I’m not a lover of lucite and acrylic. I’ve tried and tried, but I just can’t seem to embrace it. Then I saw this little tubby organizer from Umbra and had the teeny, tiniest change of heart. Kitchen. Office. Yes, please.
Bin is two parts: cylinder and lid. No mechanisms or levers. Nothing besides the genius of Shigeichiro Takeuchi. {via swissmiss}
Loving the organic design of the Cocoon. Plant herbs in the top half and store fresh fruit in the cubby on the bottom. Because it’s made of clay, water is easily absorbed and during the evaporation process it keeps things nice and cool. I have the perfect place for one. {via Design Milk}
ABC Paper Cups are eons more visually appealing than the disposable paper cups I stopped buying years ago because of their unbearable designs. Seriously, where do they find those patterns and motifs??? {via The Dieline}
THERMOS Kanne by Jorg Boner is designed with being on the go in mind. Two mugs fit neatly under a strap until needed. Then the elastic strap itself turns into a handle, in effect converting the entire thermos into a carafe. Brilliant. {via swissmiss}
The Swiss Spice Salt and Pepper shaker was created to withstand all sorts of climates and conditions without clumping. Which is really just the icing on the cake when you see the stellar design.
