Loved your site....I have a hint for you. I came across this website while aimlessly surfing for contemporary furniture - and I was blown away by their styles and prices. the site is doorstorefurniture.com
i didn't think stores like this existed anymore....quality stuff at reasonable prices. check them out.

Hi my name is Natalie and i really enjoyed your blog. Im writing a dissertation on interior design and would love to know what your favourite interior design books are and what you think is missing or there needs to be more of in interior design books. I would be extremely appreciative of any comments you could leave as this would hopefully form part of my research. Thankyou very much.

I really enjoyed my visit to this blog. It is full of beautiful antiques, some I have even seen before, the '1820 English Regency Library Chair' really got my attention, because I believe we had some very similiar in the family many years ago
This blog is nicely designed, it is easy to navigate, and the products/antiques are presented perfectly. I enjoyed viewing the many items available.
Great Job! Keep on finding those great finds! :)
