78th street – black/linen throw from happy habitat by karrie dean \\\ $165
Everyone loves a cozy throw, especially one with a really cool modern pattern, like this one inspired by a wall hanging from the designer’s childhood home.

Barbican Yellow Surface Pin Yellow from Tom Pigeon \\\ $13
Enamel pins continue to grow in popularity as they’re an inexpensive way to express yourself – plus they’re fun! Pick this one up for an architecture lover (it’s inspired by the London landmark it’s named after) or anyone who appreciates unique design accessories.

Carrie Portable LED Lamp from MENU \\\ $180
If you know anyone that lives for evenings outdoors or someone that would benefit from its convenient cordless technology, this portable lamp is super useful and practical. Plus, its minimalist design is an added bonus for the design-minded.

Architect Noir Tortoise Cuff from Machete \\\ $78
For the jewelry lover that loves something that’s not a typical design. Handcrafted from Italian acetate, this bold cuff features a monochromatic tortoise pattern that can be paired with just about any outfit.

Delta Oak Wood Clock from Lawa Design \\\ $118
This sundial-inspired clock displays visual plays with light as the light changes throughout the day. Its delightful design is great for clock lovers or anyone with empty wall space.

Tenor Phone Amplifier from Stak Ceramics \\\ $42
We all know how terrible the sound is coming out of the bottom of cell phones. This ceramic amplifier is a lo-fi solution to a modern issue as it will boost the sound and richness of the music being played through a phone’s tiny speakers.

Dieter Rectangle Bag from LUPA \\\ $340
For those in your life that are all about fashion, this BOLD bag is most definitely going to make a statement with its oversized, rectangular shape that can be worn as a full bag or folded over as a clutch.

Monolis Ceramic Diffuser from Kitchibe \\\ $220
Diffusers and essential oils have been all the rage in the last few years for their benefits of overall wellness. Most diffusers on the market are, well, not so attractive and made of plastic, but these ceramic ones lean towards sculptural.

Cement Vase from Ohio Workshop \\\ $25
This minimalist vase can hold flowers or cooking utensils in the kitchen. Either way, its simple design makes it a practical and useful gift that your recipient can decide how to use.
