[ Filed under Kitchens or in the Interiors category ] Worms composting food right in your kitchen sounds kind of scary, right? In this strange but compelling all-in-one kitchen concept, drained water is reused, other waste is a recycled and energy consumption is reduced. The idea is that the flow of cooking becomes fundamentally integrated with the natural cycles of the environment – herb garden meets trash compactor meets space-age style. EcoKook (from Faltazi ) is less a conventional kitchen design and more a micro-ecosystem and/or modern science experiment answering the question: how do we make a home (starting with one key room) that is ecological, economical and extremely useful? It is also an amazing in-your-face…

I think I’m lacking the certain extra whimsicality that causes some girls to devote their lives to Alice in Wonderland. I like Alice, a lot, but I am no Alice fiend. But since she is on the tip of everyone’s tongues this week I thought I’d pay a little homage to the heroine of the moment. I haven’t seen the new movie and I have to admit, I don’t have plans to see it. The publicity stills have sort of turned me off of it for awhile. “My” Alice is the 1972 musical version Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland , a VHS which my mom would relentlessly rent from the public library. Small selection, I guess. Even if you were hooked on the Disney version, Burton’s latest …

It’s party time! Don’t you love to hear those words? I do because who doesn’t love a good party? Photography Jeremy Harwell in Atlanta (the brother of the talented artist Anne Harwell ) wrote in recently to give decor8 first dibs on sharing a party he recently shot. But not just any party, but a vintage themed puppy party for his beautiful daughter planned and styled by his creative wife Karrie. I was excited to hear about and share this vintage party because Karrie went beyond the basics and had each girl in attendance make a pillow out of recycled fabric and vintage buttons. They also made their own book out of vintage prints from the 40’s. All of the fabrics used to decorate are vintage and the sweets were all handmade. Charming, right? Have…

Korneel from Belgium made this lamp from watering cans some time ago and is willing to give it away for free. Check it out. “It is a hanging lamp, made out of two PS Vallo watering cans . I bolted them together, and installed a lamp holder in each of then. As a result, the center of gravity was above the holding point for the wire, and the thing would not hang straight. I solved this with some ‘invisible’ nylon wire. I made this item some years ago, since then I moved to my new house. I am not using this lamp anymore and I am willing to give it away for free (not including shipping).” Related hacks: – Pour lighting – Add light to this watering can – Lamp from thermo flask?

Located in Cherry Creek, one of the most “trendy” neighborhoods in Denver, this property amazes through luxury, style and design.

The residence features an impressive wine room, a library, an indoor office and of course, a well defined entrainment…
