Extended Stay Hotels: No Place Makes You Feel More Comfortable

DLO Portable iPhone Speakers

 

A great snap-together design makes the DLO Portable iPhone Speakers ($50) perfect for travel. The TDMA interference-free system features a removable, rotating stand that holds the iPhone upright or horizontally, and offers a wide sound stage thanks to two independent speakers. All of it snaps together to create a handy travel egg. Plus, the entire system turns into a speaker phone when a call comes in — no need to disconnect.

 

 

Alpha Coffee Table

We saw this yesterday and thought it was cool.  This one-of-a-kind conversation table ($899) was inspired by a Paris flea market find, then designed exclusively for us by a London graphic designer with a penchant for, and a large personal collection of, antique printers’ blocks. Iconic top is carved from one single piece of wood with raised letters and numbers painted in 10 different colors. Vintage crackled finish varies slightly from table to table and adds to the “as found” charm. Top is protected with tempered glass and framed modern in a soft black powdercoated steel base.
