Appetize Cutlery Set Cave Bookcase Books are so important to have around the house; a child who is surrounded by books (specifically 500 or more, which may seem a lot but isn’t once you start counting) growing up will, studies show, go further in both education and their chosen profession. Plus books are fantastic, full stop. So why not celebrate the beauty of books with a beautiful bookcase? The Cave by Sakura Adachi is both bookcase and seating, giving those who love to read the perfect place in which to do it, surrounded by the books they love. Not only does it look stunning, it’s functional too, with recessed lighting for those cosy times when only a book will do. £3,499 www.biketjanst.com This stylish cutlery set consisting of four knives, four spoons, four forks, and four teaspoons has the future written all over it. Oval in shape and taking inspiration from the Japanese tealeaf plant, these fantastic pieces of cutlery are more than just utensils – they are a design statement that will set your dinner parties apart from all the rest. They are a way to express yourself in the most everyday of items, and that is a clever and priceless idea. £95 www.nedda.be 117
