I ordered two metal-halide bulbs and sent them a spec sheet by email to make absolutely sure that we'd get the right ones. They ordered them and the owner, Derek Hude, informed me that they were ready for pick-up. I spent one hour in traffic to get to the place, only to find that they had ordered the wrong bulbs. Not only didn't they apologize but tried to blame it first on me and then on the manufacturer/distributor ("we ordered the right ones but they sent us the wrong ones"). They then promised to send us the bulbs at no additional charge. I was OK with that and paid. The next day I get a call from them telling me that the bulbs wouldn't be $29.90 each as quoted (and paid) but more than $50 each and if I was OK with the additional charge. Again, no apology and the attempt to blame the mistake on me. I declined and opted for a refund instead. The guy who called, Bisser, was rather rude and told me that his time was too valuable to argue with me. Looks like their time is more valuable than their customer's time... Never again, "Specialty" Lighting & Bulbs! ...read more

NEVER DELIVERED MOTHER'S DAY FLOWERS! Who does that? What kind of legitimate business closes at 2:00 PM on Mother's Day and lets their subcontracted drivers "deliver" flowers without staying in contact or even confirming they were delivered? Phone calls were ignored and not returned. TERRIBLE! JUST TERRIBLE! ...read more
Modern items and being back.. Today I am writting about modern items that just happen to catch my attention am HAPPY TO REPORT I WILL BE BACK TO REGULAR BLOGGING, AND to generally say that things are going well.. for the first time in a little while.. All is good from this front . I hope all of you enjoy the article and postings and of course pics... Enjoy... Modern lighting... With summer, comes a life lived more fully outdoors. But even the outside world needs proper lighting. Our modern outdoor lighting collection has something to enhance any outdoor space, be it urban patio or suburban back yard. From floor lamps to ceiling lights, illuminating the night has never been easier, and we’re not talking lanterns and torches (though, do have a look at our current Blomus sale for a few of those beauties). Why not make a dramatic statement with landscape lighting or kill two birds with one glowing piece of outdoor lighted furniture? We guarantee you’ll be counting the hours until the sun goes down.It seems like lit seating is the in craze wave at the moment... A Great Redesign... While we’d certainly turn our nose up at anyone who travels to a distant spot just to stay put on their hotel premises, we may need to make an exception for those staying at Hotel Sezz Saint-Tropez. Continuing in a tradition started in the 1980′s, when Philippe Starck was given free reign over the redesign of The Royalton hotel in New York City, Hotel Sezz’s interior design and furnishings were placed in the hands of the French furniture designer Christophe Pillet—and why not?For all their refined sophistication, Pillet’s furniture has always looked and felt comfort-conscious, with gentle curves and unusual organic forms that give off the air of having been born of careful ergonomic investigation. And there’s plenty of both sophistication and comfort on full display at this Hotel Sezz (Pillet has also outfitted the hotel’s Paris property), as one may expect from a hotel in wealthy, sun-drenched southern France.But Pillet characteristically keeps things low-key, allowing Saint Tropez’s famously dazzling light to shine into (and on) a mostly muted color scheme and restrained furniture arrangements of soft leather, dark wood and burnished metals—a very Modernist brand of southern hospitality. Now, who’d ever want to leave all that? A Great and very cool house ...Who would have guessed that a mere 2-hour drive from Manhattan is a house partially designed by Ai Weiwei, the great Chinese contemporary artist, sculptor and sometime architect? Not us, frankly. But it turns out that Ai’s 2005 collaboration with the Swiss design firm, HHF Architects, is back on the market—and don’t we feel foolish for not having an extra $4.2M on hand.40 pristine acres in upstate New York hold not just one, but two Ai co-designed structures, both originally commissioned by a pair of art collectors: a 4,000+ square foot, rectangular, aluminum-clad main house; and a 2,000+ square foot, gently curving, Cor-Ten steel guesthouse.And, befitting a collaboration between reductive Swiss design sensibilities and Ai’s penchant for highly-ordered installations, all the requisites of great modernist architecture are present: dramatic proportions, generous expanses of glass, indifference to ornamentation, preoccupation with geometry. And, of course, plenty of room reserved for displaying and viewing art. All that, and an intriguing provenance too. We’re betting this house’s tenure on the open market will be brief.Am amazing place designed by great people... Apartment Living conceptsThe concept of turning a retail space into something approximating a real house is not particularly new—furniture retailers have been wisely staging their inventory for years—but the art form has been elevated to dazzling new heights by the Danish duo of Tina Seidenfaden Busck and Pernille Hornhaver. Interior stylists, in addition to co-owners of the Copenhagen gallery,The Apartment, Busck and Hornhaver have renovated an actual apartment as their gallery space, and applied their razor-sharp, yet elegantly understated, instincts for interior decoration to enliven it with a revolving selection of objects of exceeding beauty, all culled from their ever-growing inventory.That the resulting rooms can easily be mistaken for an actual apartment is testament to the owners’ considerable talent for both curating and editing. There are requisite mid-century Danish classics, to be sure, but add to that an unexpected, even quirky, mixture—folk art, hand-sewn quilts, contemporary abstract paintings, Art Deco light fixtures—and it’s no wonder this gallery exudes the aura of a home created over time with painstaking care and exquisite feel for space, color and form. An enviable distinction for any gallery, we think; or any home, for that matter. Very interesting design to say the least... All of the above items were strange unique and things that grab people's attention... we should always strive to be the center of attention or trends, however dont forget there is a fine line between center of attention and annoying..I am updating the pictures of the company and have three new websites.. Stay tuned for a complete update on AG Home Goods.. ...read more

Modern spaces... Today I am talking about modern spaces and the items that make them the space we feel cozy and at home with... We have all seen minimalist design and its dry and not cozy feel.. Well here are some modern contemporary designs that add flare and make us feel more at home in the traditional setting.. I love the way they look and we will all love the way they feel to us.. Enjoy the pics and post A Mixed Modern Space Last week we talked about mixing modern, and this beautiful space does just that. The exposed wood ceiling and the unique wall designs create the perfect canvas for an influx of modern furniture. The modern living room has a bright white tufted sofa that is paired with a tulip side table and white lounge chair and it leads to a modern dining table surrounded by modern classic chairs. The kitchen has the same bones that are accentuated by modern cabinets, appliances and furniture. What do you think of this modern space? Is this a place you can see yourself living in? The Wave Chair In Action Sometimes when you see an item in a different setting than on a website, you see the true beauty of the product. This is exemplified with the Wave Chair, and is especially helpful for those that may be skeptical about acrylic furniture. Because seeing the Wave Chair in this setting helps you envision how gorgeous it will look in your modern home! Made of high-quality acrylic, the Wave Chair is a modern lounge chair that adds high style and drama to a modern living room. Use the chair as an accent piece to a contemporary sofa and coffee table and the Wave Chair will undoubtedly be the star of the show. Plus, the materials of the Wave Chair are completely recyclable and environmentally conscious! What do you think of the Wave Chair? See It In Action: The Soho Stool On Monday, we blogged about mixing modern with other styles, such as traditional and rustic, and there were some modern classic stools that were used as an example. To wrap the week up over here at the Inmod blog, we’ve got those chairs in stool form – and we’ve got them in action in a stylish modern-transitional kitchen. The modern stool is the Soho Stool, which is a highly accurate reproduction of the Navy Emeco Stool. Made of aluminum with a brushed finish, these modern classic stools are stylish and timeless. They work well in any modern setting, including this kitchen above. What do you think of these stools? Xert Yourself You won’t overexert yourself by creating the perfect modern dining room with the Xert Buffet Console and the Xert Narrow Shelf. These sleek storage pieces have durable stainless steel frames, available in the finish of your choice. The shelves are made of frosted glass for a chic, dramatic look. What’s great about the Xert Series is that they add optimum style while providing storage and display options. In addition to the two items shown here, there are so many other items in the Xert Series, made by Zuo. There is a bart cart, a chair, an entertainment center – so many pieces that you could essentially Xert your whole house out, if you love the styles that much!! Which Xert piece is your favorite?
