Lubi Analyst's Couch ($799)



Minimalist lounging, napping, and party seating by day; fold-out double bed by night. Get rid of your ratty futon already! From CB2.

Engineered Stripe Fringed Border Throw ($50)



Reg $79. Great Santa Fe vibe here, and the durable cotton will hold up to a zillion washings, getting softer and softer over time. From Pottery Barn.

Chunky Hand-Knit Throw ($129)



Free shipping. There is nothing cozier than one of these sweater blankets, and I love the cable knit pattern. Go for the dark brown, wait for a cold day, unfold with a detective novel, tea, and biscuits. From Pottery Barn.

Champagne Faux Fur Throw ($6)



I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this is a really freaking good deal. Faux it up, baby. From Target.

Mid-Century Style Ottoman ($40)



Vegan-friendly pleather, budget-friendly mid-century reproduction furniture. Put a tray on it and it doubles as a coffee table in smaller rooms. From Bed Bath & Beyond.

Lubi Daybed / Chaise ($599)


sale!

Perfect for apartment (or small-house) dwellers—lounge on it with a book on a lazy afternoon, seat three comfortably for a party, and fold out into room for two sleepers when you have houseguests. Originally $749. From CB2.

Silver Laquered Tray ($8)



Marked down from $30. A tiny bit of glamorous for putting the drinkies on. Or, um, something wholesome. Porridge? From Target.

Scando Bent Plywood Coffee Table ($349)



Available in walnut, oak, birch, and glossy white finish. Splurge, but soooo classic. From Modern Seed.

Lake St. Clair Wool-Blend Throw ($70)



Wild, gorgeous fringes pair with a very comfortably soft-looking camel-colored main fabric. Marked down from $128. From Anthropologie.

Hattusa Tasseled Throw ($100)



Turkish-themed prints, tiny pompoms on the corners, cotton and wool construction. Nice! Originally $248. From Anthropologie.

Woven Cashmere Throw ($198)



Beautiful colors in these generously sized fringed cashmere throw blankets. Originally $298. From Garnet Hill.

Vintage Glove Mold ($18)



I love these. They're just the right combination of arty and creepy. I'm thinking the fireplace mantle with one of these, or in a bookcase. From Blue Bell Bazaar.

Oak Side Table ($40)



Originally $80. Modern side tables with a traditional wood finish.

Franklin Bench Chair ($153)



Great for a conversation area where you want a chair that's big enough for lounging but not visually bulky. From MPO Designs.

Weegee Medium Table Lamp ($119)



sale!

Marked down from $150, with a cool, minimalist tripod base. From Design Public.

Magazine Rack Coffee Table ($158)



This is such a clever idea, and the best-looking storage option for magazines I've ever seen. From Umbra.

Minimalist Bird Pillow ($20)



Birds and branches are on everything right now, but here, bird and branch are stripped down to their most minimal (in, as is required by Minimalist Law, black and white). The result is oddly friendly. From The Little Stitch.

Chimo Wall Fireplace ($1,549)


This fireplace hooks onto your wall without need of a chimney and burns a fuel that doesn't produce carbon monoxide. More importantly, it allows you to pretend the Jetsons-esque future we were promised thirty years ago has arrived. After we slog home on our commutes without flying cars or personal jetpacks and are met at the door by our incontinent, elderly pets rather than a robo-maid with a martini, a moment of warm, futurist fantasy might be a great comfort. From Uma.

Centro Shelf ($28)



These make a nice change from the square diorama shelves that have been making the rounds lately. Same function, new silhouette. Marked down from $38, from Chiasso.

No Smoking Ashtray ($15)



The one no-smoking sign you don't actually have to obey. Kind of nice in a world where even bars are slowly becoming off-limits to smokers. From Fitzsu.
