When a New York couple had to make room for kid space in their open loft, they compromised by mixing grown-up taste with kid-friendly furnishings. Here, two pushed-together beds create a space big enough for a crowd, while Timorous Beasties wallpaper and an Ingo Maurer chandelier (toned down with sheets of drawings hung from it) make this space truly a balance of adult design and children's needs. How do you moms out there strike a balance between kid-friendly furnishings and your own interior design ideas?

Recently, I showed you one artist who was reclaiming crochet as a cool craft. Hot on the heels of this trend comes a new fabric design one of my favorite companies, Scotland's Timorous Beasties. The subtly shocking Devil Damask ($140 per yard), which is a custom cotton lace design, takes the established identity of lace as something dainty and ladylike and turns it on its head.

Lately, I've been showing you some cool lamps that have been sporting dullsville shades. I was thrilled to recently spot a cure to this problem with a wow-factor pink-and-brown patterned shade in the recent Casa Cravings, submitted by TeamSugar member Freshpink. The shade is from the Glasgow, Scotland-based store Timorous Beasties.
