Hot and Cold How do you accent a black brick wall? One word: warmth. The wood cabinets in the background and the gorgeous leather chair in camel make this office look less Deadhead garage and more Hermes handbag. True to form, we did a little scouring of eBay to see what we could find to replicate this look in our own homes. Though we couldn’t find anything that exactly matched the absolute treasure of a chair seen in this picture, we did find some… [MORE] solid replacements. Check out this midcentury leather desk chair in a dark claret. This Danish modern swivel desk chair nearly gets it, nailing the camel coloring but designed to be more of a statement piece. If you’re looking for lamps, this black metal desk lamp from the ’50s is a must. Get ‘em before they’re gone! (Photo courtesy of designtraveller. Text by Jenny Bahn)

Best of the Bedside The Inside Source loves all things old and re-purposed. Take, for instance, this medical lamp. Mixed in with the warmth of a barn-style decor, what could be a cold and creepy instrument of the past is now perfectly suited for the new task at hand. eBay has an abundance of vintage medical lamps on offer, in a variety of heights, shapes, and sizes. When purchasing vintage lighting, always keep in mind that you might have to invest a small amount in rewiring. This is something you can easily do yourself or, if you rather, take to a professional to do, usually for around $30 depending on the size of the lamp and where you live.
