#DesignLife Holidays: The Design Lovers Gift Guide
Last minute is so last year. While over here at Amber Lowi Designs, we believe in celebrating one holiday at a time, that doesn’t mean we aren’t preparing for the season ahead. With any successful endeavor the details matter and around this time of year those details require advance planning.
It truly is the thought that counts, and to that end we scour near and far all throughout the year to find thoughtful gifts that will deliver a little #everydaybeautiful all year long.
For the design lovers in your life, here are ten #designlife gift ideas that they will be delighted to unwrap.
Assouline: Travel Series
Vista Alegre: Christian Lacroix Coasters “Love Who You Want”
For the fashionista in your life, combine interior decor and haute couture with this collaboration between Vista Alegre and Christian Lacroix. These coasters not only protect delicate furniture, they do it with style.
Astier de Villatte: Small Platinum Vase
In a small Parisian Atelier, Tibetan monks fashion clay into this sparkling vase. A gift to enjoy throughout the year. Fill it with colorful fall leaves, amaryllis or greenery and hand deliver for a bit of extra #designlife style.
Hudson Grace: Dark Walnut Natural Bowl
Beautiful wooden bowl that does double duty as a serving- and center-piece. In the off hours it can be used as a popcorn bowl. Although this one will tempt you to “zhuzh” up your movie nights with some homemade truffle parmesan popcorn.
Simon Pearce: Vintner Wine Decanter with Marble Stopper
Is there an oenophile in your group? You know, the one who always shares the best sips of the rarest vintages with friends? This sculptural decanter with a marble top is form and function at its best.
Man Ray: Chess Set
For the game player in your life, this surrealist chess set from Man Ray is an architectural showpiece.
Zafferano: Pino Pro
Sleek, versatile and with the ability to look good anywhere. Don’t we all aspire to this? This rechargeable cordless LED is one of the hottest lighting options for New York City restaurants. But you don’t have to resort to stealing one to enjoy their minimal design in the comfort of your own home.
Raduga Grez: Cupola Building Blocks
Tiny humans deserve #designlife too! The soft hues and refined shapes in this set of blocks provides a creative foundation for imagination to bloom and who knows, maybe inspire a budding designer.
Cire Trudon:Positano Candle
The House of Trudon has a history tracing back to 1643. Their luxurious candles are made by traditional methods at their atelier in Normandy. The Positano is a favorite scent at our house, combining orange, ginger and fragrant white flowers in a minimalist container.
Bang & Olufsen: Beosound A1 2nd Gen
Design is all about the senses, and what better way to curate a mood than music. This tiny yet powerful speaker is beautifully designed and provides hours of mood setting melodies. Adding a beautiful soundtrack to the holidays and beyond!
