Dwell on Design: Remodelista Reports

Filed under: Fun Stuff, Design, etc, News & Trends

We're filling you in on felt pails, brightly colored aluminum goodies and more.

[Editor's Note: At this year's Dwell on Design, ShelterPop's Allison saw all sorts of terrific things...including our friends at Remodelista! We wanted to share their favorite finds from the the show -- we hope you enjoy! And stay tuned to hear our highlights!]

We were intrigued by the offerings from new online shop Sleek Identity. Owner Stefanie Gelinas specializes in products from small European manufacturers and independent designers, including the Felt Storage Pail by the UK-based design studio Hive. Made of wool felt with metal handles, it's a softer version of the old standby pail. We can think of a ton of uses for it and we bet you can think of more: Store your magazines, toys, linens and more -- or use it as a wastebasket or reusable bag while shopping. Available in Lime-Green, Red-Orange, Turquoise and Gray, the 12"x13" Felt Storage Pail retails for $118.


We love these Outdoor Planters by Wallter -- aren't they perfect for a balcony or small garden? The planters hook on easliy to the wall and are made from spun alumunium which won't rust or decay over time: $82 from Wallter. Available in a variety of colors, they also have a Hanging Planter for $72 and Post Planter for $92; all available to ship in September.


Loftwall is a movable, lightweight room divider that's customizable -- and perfect for apartments or lofts. Furniture designer Steven Kinder created Loftwall because he was tired of using space-consuming folding screens to divide his small living space. It is so lightweight, it's easy to slide it to make your room larger to accomodate a party, or smaller to create an instant guest room. You customize your wall by ordering individual panels that are available in a wide range of colors and materials. A 4-foot wide Loftwall ranges from $400-$600.

Modern lines and vibrant color come together in the New Colors Range from modular shelving system maker iSS Designs. Crafted of powder-coated aluminum, the shelves are available in blue, green, purple, orange, yellow and red. The pieces are sold individually, enabling you to create the color scheme of your choice. Prices range from $20 for a 6" x 24" to $49 for a 12" x 36" aluminum shelf. Mounting hardware ranges from $8.75 to $39. Available the first week of July through the iSS Design Store online.
