Hey All! Now through June 10, save 15% on all pieces from Magis! This is great news for those of you who are looking to add some bright color to your screened-in porch like I am (or your deck, or your patio, or your dining room or desk…) I choose these amazing Folding Air Armchairs in grasshopper green myself:

The Magis Chair One with 4 Star Base adds some mad geometry to any space. I think it would be extra cool in a Buckminster Filler-designed geodesic dome, but how many of us have those? I’ll put it in my funky cottage, thank you very much.

By the way, this chair also comes with concrete base and four legged base style options.

I don’t have a pool, but I’d pretend I did and just lounge in this beauty underneath the sprinkler. The Magis Paso Doble Chaise Lounge‘s  sexy curves would distract me from my sad, pool-less situation.

Need a spot to rest that pitcher of refreshing mojitos? Look no further, the Magis One Bistro Table is here, just waiting for you to order it up and perch your cocktails atop it.

Moving indoors, Magis Steelwood Shelving Systems have a gorgeous contemporary look that will hold everything without clunking up a room. Use it for media, office tomes and binders, books, kitchen stuff. It’s also great for people who like to keep things folded and stacked in the closet.

So peeps, get on it, because this sale is only through June 10, 2013.

Spring has sprung, summer’s on the way and it’s time to think about loungin’ and sipping cold G&Ts, poolside, patio or even on a tiny balcony. That’s why we’re offering All Richard Schultz Collection pieces for 15% off right now. You can shop ‘em all here. Want more info? That’s what I’m here for.

Richard Schultz was good pals with Florence Knoll, and back in 1966 she asked him if he could whip her up some outdoor furniture that wouldn’t rust and corrode due to the salt air and other elements. Teflon thread and powdercoating met killer classic style, and an iconic collection was born. It’s known as the Richard Schultz 1966 Collection, and it’s still going strong today. Oh, and it also has MoMA’s seal of approval, as part of its permanent collection.

Check out an inspiring video of Mr. Schultz talking about design

Richard Schultz 1966 Serving Cart

The matching cart is perfect for mixing up cocktails for your patio guests, or doing that whole tea thing if that’s more your speed.

The Richard Schultz Petal Coffee Table

Schultz’s Petal tables will stand up to the elements, but they also look fantastic indoors. They come in dining, coffee and side table versions. While the bottoms of their stands do a little bit of that “slum of table legs” thing that Florence Knoll’s other pal Eero hated so much, they still have some hot pedestal action going on.

Richard Schultz Topiary Bench

More whimsical than his other classic pieces, Schultz took inspiration from clipped shrubs and hedges and topiaried up a fun bench that looks like an abstracted hedge. Not feeling his classic whites and tans? Don’t fret, the Topiary collection comes Daffodil Yellow, Dark Bronze, Forest Green, Onyx, Sky Blue, Terra Cotta, well and yeah, White.  It also comes in a dining table version:

Sometimes I forget how much I love getting a package from Design Public. Yesterday I received my Thomas Paul Zebra Canvas Pillow in Java and I could not be more thrilled. I scored it through our outlet, and the only sacrifice I had to make was that the box had been opened. Big whoop.

By the way, I just had that door installed last week and it still needs to be painted and I need to get some hardware that is not bottom of the barrel, so don’t judge! At least there is no longer a breeze coming straight through the old hollow bungalow door from the ’40s that it replaced.

Anyway, There are lots of great scores to be had in the Design Public Outlet. Right now we’re having a blowout. These items are samples and returns. They are “as-is” and all sales are final, but the most common condition granting the big discounts  is “Opened Box.” Again, big whoop. In return for these stipulations, items are marked 40-80% down right now for our big blowout. You can find just about anything from bedding to barstools, lighting to area rugs. I’m eyeing this phone by Jaspar Morrison:

and this DwellStudio Home Gates Rug:

So if you like them too and want the score, you’d better hurry up and make your order before I do!

By the way, if you are jealous of my zebra pillow, you can still order it through Design Public by clicking on the picture below:
