Iron Works.

Monday, December 6th, 2010

 

Philip Nimmo Ironworks is a Los Angeles based manufacturer that creates all things iron for the home.  The company creates beautiful firescreens, as well as other artistically crafted pieces that are eye-catching.  Since Austin’s weather only permits the use of indoor fireplaces for a fraction of the year, why not put beautiful art in place of fire for the bulk of the year?  It can be really difficult to find unique firescreens, but Philip Nimmo has us covered.  For more on his work, visit www.philipnimmoironworks.com.

Check out this cool way to look at something old.  Brenda Houston has designed a line of jewelry and lighting that uses minerals in a new way.  We love her use of raw materials to create something unique and edgy for you or your interior space.

This metal mesh drapery by Whiting & Davis is fabulous.  It shimmers and drapes dramatically, but is simple at the same time.  Often used in fashion, metal mesh can be used in home applications for interior design, as well.  Check out these room dividers below.  They fill in cased openings beautifully, and come in an array of finishes and textures.  We would love to find a way to use these fashionable textiles in your Austin space.
