{ simple, stable, perfect } by Stoller

It has been a busy week, and it shows because I have not been blogging! BUT I had to make time to share these wonderful Stoller tables designed by architect Evan Stoller. I love how he combines a simple, stable design into something beautiful. The tables non-intrusive bases really highlight the character and warmth of the wood. I think Stoller tables are perfectly designed and I truly want one!
