Dekka is a daybed where two design traditions integrates in one furniture. FurnID has chosen to let the Danish design tradition meet with the Arab and the result is a minimalistic daybed by the name Dekka. Dekka is a meeting between old handwork and industrial processing, between hard and soft, between light and shadow, between matt and shiny, between decoration and minimalism, between asymmetry and stringency and between aesthetic and function.

It’s worth to visit IKEA on regular order to see latest products and trends of Scandinavian design. This simply and functional TV set catched our attention this time. Made of birch veneer and covered by clear nitrocellulose lacquer, LIMA is affordable still stylish and reliable solution for your living room interiour design. It has a drop-front that hides and protects your devices, and cord outlet in the back, that ’s very useful for keeping all cords together.

It was always hard to me to track comments I made on various blogs, rss reader helps of course, but not always, some blogs has no comments rss at all, and collecting all feeds on every blog you have commented can be a headache.

But now it seems that we got a tool to keep our discussions in order. CoComment is the service for tracking your comments, you just need to use their bookmarklet before the hitting the ‘Submit’ button on blog page you commenting to. I have set an account there and tried their system recently, it’s worked, but I forgot to hit their bookmarklet couple of times.
