The Cultivated Home

As a kid we all loved building forts out of chairs, pillows, and sheets, but as adults we rarely spend time creating structures of our own.  Luckily, the amazing designers, Jaime Salm and Roger Allen, have created a modular architectural system called Nomad that allows you to assemble your own temporary free-standing structure.  The Nomad system was created out of Jamie and Roger’s desire to produce flexible spaces that can morph any environment into your dream space.  From a partition or a screen to an actual room, anything is possible with Nomad!  Available in a wide range of colors, you can mix and match to add pattern and interest to your new structure.

It’s perfect for turning a studio apartment into more then just one room and for partitions in an office space—or let your childhood dreams come back, and create a adult fort of your own!

Remember when you used to get so excited for the fall and back-to-school clothes? With the newest pieces from West Elm, we at the CH are giddy with excitement for the new season and its fresh arrivals. The Parallel Nesting Tables, for example, have a great architectural silhouette and are simple enough to fit into any design scheme.

Another noteworthy piece is the Pebble Table Lamp, which is organic yet modern and has a sculptural quality that makes it a work of art. For under a thousand dollars, you can afford to furnish your living room with the stylish Linden Chair or the Slipper Chair and still have some pocket change to reupholster it in a bold fabric or add a fabulous new pillow.  Whatever you choose, these pieces are sure to warm up any room as the weather cools down.
