Principles of Design Poster by Efil Türk.

The turkey based designer named Efil has crafted a beautiful series of poster showing the principles of design only using paper. Cutting pieces of paper, juxtaposing the pieces, pasting geometrical shapes and using simple typography is the formula of this beautiful series. She mention that you can actually buy them.

A bookshelf make of pipes add extra character yet fit right in with exposed brick walls.

Mint strikes a beautiful contrast next to a black chalkboard wall. This small space cleverly incorporates a fold down bar.

Living walls and natural elements bring the outdoors in. Glass railing disappears, keeping the focus on the decor.

Here’s an awesome way to work some geekery into your gardening. Malaysian LEGO builder Jin Kai created these LEGO flower pots featuring scenes from Return of the Jedi, The Fellowship of the Ring, and The Simpsons.

Jin Kai’s Star Wars flower pot and Lord of the Rings flower pot are both currently up for voting to be turned into real LEGO products on LEGO Ideas.

Visit Jin Kai’s Flickr page for additional photos of these three geektastic flower pots.

Nobility Blue sure looks good on you. We can’t get enough of our color of the week. The saturated tone adds sophistication to any room.

Victoria, B.C., residents Marco Khalil and Caroline West, who together own a business selling vintage goods, found a small school bus for sale on Craigslist. They turned the 1979 bus into a vacation home — a mobile cabin — that not only serves as a backyard cabin on their property, but can serve as a pop-up shop for their business.

An upcycled, multipurpose space filled with vintage crates used as storage, maps used as window covering — what’s not to love about this?!

Incredible way to re-purpose and also to find a unique way to travel and explore! I always enjoy hearing of new ideas to combine creativity, travel and design :)
