Roost has a whole range of organic shaped, nature inspred lamps, vases, stools and what not, with classy chic. This is an interesting twist on designs that are nature inspired, as these items seem delicated and are anything but rough and country style. Quite on the contrary, Roost’s whole collection has a very unique and elegant look to it. Take a look at these lamps and you will immediately know what I’m talking about:
Made of matte porcelain, the owl lamp emits a warm, soft light. The birdcage lamp made of the center stalks of palm fronds has a white light diffusor inside with a bird stenciled on it and a cage door.
Each bird from the flock of swallows mobile is handcarved from basswood and hung on a debarked, natural branch. The barnyard animals actually are an item for children, for those older than five years at least. They are made from wood, filt and natural fibres and come in a set of goat, sheep, pig and donkey.
Available at Velocity Art and Design, porcelain owl lamp $121.00, birdcage lamps $230.00-270.00, flock of swallows mobile $140.00, brushy barnyard animals $36.00.

If you are looking for some unusual, modern design, the LoJo Ball fits right in, with its funky appearance. This variable seating has a sphere shape, held together by a surrounding zipper. If zipped, the LoJo can function as a stool, a foot rest, or simply a room decoration. If unzipped, it turns into a low lounge chair. It is a variation of a standard beanbag, since it is also filled with the same beans, but still its design is very distinct from that of a bean bag. Though this product is actually designed for adults in mind, rather than children, I think it would be equally suitable to a modern kid’s or teenager’s room.
The LoJo can be ordered on their website for £99.00.
