Le parfait tabouret de bar ! The perfect bar stool !

31 Octobre 2008 Plus le temps passe, plus j'aime les mélanges de style: j'ai beaucoup aimé le classique voire rétro il y a longtemps, les dernières années mes goûts m'ont portée vers un contemporain ni froid ni ennuyeux (je devrais faire un post sur notre appartement, qui paraîtra bientôt dans un magazine de décoration québécois!). The more it goes, the more I am attracted by a fine mixing of styles: a while ago, I liked a classical look, almost retro; in the last years I clearly developed a special taste for contemporary sytle, not cold nor boring though (I should write a post on our condo, it will soon be featured in a Quebec decoration magazine!).

Dans notre future nouvelle cuisine, on souhaite un bel ilôt pouvant accueillir 4 personnes, ce qui signifie avoir de beaux tabourets de bar ! Comme présentée il y a quelques jours dans ce post, elle sera en bois blanc assez champêtre, avec comptoir de bois (bloc de boucher) et des lampes suspendues en aluminium. Pour contre-balancer tout ce style country, partons à la recherche de tabourets plus contemporains !

In our to-be new kitchen, we want a large island where 4 people can seat comfortably, what means having nice bar stools ! As explained a few days ago in this post, the kitchen cabinets will be shaker style in white, with butcher's block wooden counters and aluminium suspension lamps. To balance all this country decor elements, let's search more contemporary bar stools ! Je savais que je ne voulais pas de tabourets trop contemporains, trop inox, que l'on voit un peu partout (y compris chez nous dans notre appart' !), comme ceux-ci, il me semble que ce serait trop froid: I know I did not want too common bar stools, we can see a bit everywhere (including our own condo!), too contemporary with much stainless, like these, it seems it would be too cold: Photo Febland Group & Hotel Bar Stools

Le style de ceux-ci s'intégrerait bien avec la cuisine, mais pour le coup je rate le contraste que je recherche....This one would fit well into the kitchen's ctyle, but it's missing the crispy contrast I want to create:

Photo The Magazine Info Et là, grâce à une photo sur un des derniers articles de Design Sponge, je tombe sur LE tabouret qu'il me faut !! And then, suddenly, my internet peregrinations lead me to Design Sponge blog, and a picture shows THE bar stool I need !

Quelques minutes de recherche pour trouver sur le Net quel est donc ce magnifique objet.....mais c'est bien sûr, c'est du Starck ! A few minutes searching the web for this awesome object....of course, it's a Starck item ! Photo Commercial Bar Stool

N'est-il pas magnifique ?? Il s'appelle le Charles Ghost ! Avec ses pieds évasés, sa ligne rappelle les tabourets classiques du 19e siècle, mais le jeu de transparence qu'offre la matière (du polycarbonate) le projette résolument dans le 21e ! Il est tout en finesse, éthéré, intemporel, moderne mais discret, il saura très bien compléter le look plus classique ! Quel caractère ! Isn't it gorgeous ?? Its name is the Charles Ghost stool ! Its slightly upturned legs and shape refer to the classical 19th-century stools, but the transparency the material offers (polycarbonate) makes it a great modern piece of art ! It's so sophisticated, etheral, discreet, it will perfectly complete the more classical kitchen look ! It has so much character, it does make a statement !

C'est le grand frère de la désormais très célèbre chaise Louis Ghost. This stool is the big brother of the now so-known Louis Ghost armchair.

Et puis Starck est francais, soyons fiers un peu ! Bon, le problème est son prix....163USD, il m'en faut 4....aie aie, on va y réfléchir un peu !! Starck is French, so let's be proud of it ! OK, price is the problem: at 163 USD each, I need 4 of them....ouch, I'll think about it again...!

  4. certainly like your web-site however you have to test
    the spelling on quite a few of your posts.
    A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I in
    finding it very bothersome to inform the truth on the other hand I will certainly come again again.

    most effective of all the toppings ωould not be burnt.

The issue is something which not enough people are speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy I came across this in my search for something regarding this.

    I'm hoping to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you recommend starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid
    option? There are so many options out there that I'm completely confused .. Any ideas? Kudos!

  18. I'm new to building sites and I was wondering if having your site title relevant to your articles and other content really that critical? I notice your title, "Blogger: Champ�tre aventure- Old Cottage House! " does appear to be spot on with what your blog is about however, I prefer to keep my title less content descriptive and based more around site branding. Would you think this is a good idea or bad idea? Any kind of assistance would be greatly appreciated.
