As a lover of ultra modern furniture I was very impressed when I came across the "Toro" chair from Sur & Plus. Designer Sean Yoo included details that take on a surprisingly unique look from every angle, all of which look great. Sur & Plus of Belgium constantly works to redefine the evolution of taste and lifestyles working closely with designers and architects. See more modern chairs and sofas from their collection here.

Many times Furniture Fashion has praised the Ekornes Stressless collection of ergonomic recliners, home theater seating, and living room furniture handmade the old fashioned way in Norway. Well old fashioned goes only for their commitment to building their furniture the right way, as you can see from the look of their new "Blues" recliner the styles are definitely up to date. I had the pleasure to test drive Ekornes's newest high end ergonomic recliner in High Point this fall and pictures just don't fully tell the story your back will hear loud and clear. The Blues will include the standard Stressless features such as a tilting ottoman, "Plus" automatic adjusting headrest, alternate "Sleep" position headrest, active lumbar support, and 360 degree swivel base, as well as a height adjustable ottoman and chair base which is exclusive the Blues and Jazz recliners. Visit Ekornes.com as they celebrate their 75th anniversary and see their full collection of modern reclining furniture designed with serious comfort in mind.

If you are like me you spend way to much time in your desk chair, and more than likely it is not the perfect place to spend a long day working. Fully supportive ergonomic seating is not only vital to long term health and good posture, you can tell your boss it can increase productivity too. The "Embody" desk chair from Herman Miller features a "one chair size fits all" design that adapts to your size, shape, posture and spinal curvature offering full support all of the time. The revolutionary design of the Embody office chair allows you to move while your body remains supported in all positions from reclined to leaning forward working on the computer. Designers Jeff Weber and Bill Stumpf managed to follow Herman Miller's commitment to the environment with 95% recyclable materials, PVC-free construction and Greenguard certification. See more of the Herman Miller office furniture products including some really cool desks to go with the chair here.

There are some outstanding bathroom faucet designs to choose from out there but only the "Canali" from Neve allows you to interpret the shape the way you want. The tubular chrome design can be counter or wall mounted and is comprised of a series of modular pieces for endless possibilities. My favorite is the faucet / towel rack combo.

Many of us have purchased Tempur-Pedic mattresses and moved away from the traditional bed and box springs design. One transition that can be difficult to make is adjusting to the new style pillows. I was able to make the transition, but my wife could not get comfortable with the unique Tempur-Pedic neck supporting design. One solution may be the ComfortPillow that you see in the picture. This pillow is just like the ones that we grew up with, but have the foam construction. This shape is more like what she has used her whole life. If the pillow has been a struggle to get used to I hope that this style may be a solution. Prices: Standard $129; Queen Standard $159. Buy product: here.
