Bousaf Side Table | CB2 x Kravitz Design
Click here to buy at cb2.com
CB2’s long-anticipated collection from Grammy-winning rock star/furniture designer Lenny Kravitz has finally arrived! The ’70s-glam-meets-California-cool collaboration (dubbed CB2 x Kravitz Design, the eponymous firm he founded in 2003) comprises glossy gold accent tables, geometric textiles, boho sheepskins and multiple-use storage pieces.
Our favorite is the Bousaf Side Table ($299): gold, grain and oh, so good. The design has a big presence, but at a scale that will fit any space. With contours reminiscent of an undulating rock song, sculptural brass-plated sheet metal serves as the base for an 18-inch walnut-veneer top. This collector’s item should sell out quickly, so act fast — and be sure to include some coasters in your order.

Cluster of Black Dwellings Grouped Around a Central Courtyard: House in Colbost
Envisioned by Glasgow-based firm Dualchas Architects, House in Colbust is a project located on Waternish, a peninsula on the island of Skye, Scotland. According to the architects, its design is “directly inspired by a black shed on the adjacent croft, simple in form and clearly rooted to its landscape. The form developed out of a desire to lose the bulk of the relatively large building into the shadow of the cliff behind so that the 1 ½ storey element containing all the bedrooms sits behind the main simple communal living space in front.” The buildings are grouped around a courtyard, that offers opportunities for spending time outdoors, protected by windy weather.
Aluminum roofs finished in black Plannja Hard Coat surface coating and black rainscreen cladding contribute to the originality of these dwellings. All interiors are connected to the outdoors through generously-sized windows: “The brief was for an open plan living/dining/lounge but also separate games room and study/sitting room and four bedrooms. The main living space can be divided off from the back bedrooms by means of a sliding oak screen. There was to be a separate shed for storage and wood store and heat pump shelter.” Enjoy the virtual tour and tell what your thoughts are regarding the overall layout and design of this Scotland residence!
