Web of the Week: PadStyle

Category: Websites

padstyle_head

PadStyle is a decor blog with posts on stylish furnishings for your home.

That’s what the site’s brief one-liner states. As part of our new regular weekly feature, we will dive headfirst into the interwebs and bring you a new design-related site to enjoy every Wednesday. This first week we ask you to turn your attention to PadStyle.com, a modern furniture website, hosted by furniture shop Prime-Furniture-Source.

PadStyle looks at affordable modern furniture that you can buy for your home, as opposed to the oft-maligned sites that dangle a design carrot in front of you in the form of a product that will never escape from concept phase.  Just about everything on PadStyle can be bought online or in stores.  The other neat feature about the site is that it looks at what makes a product special, such as its materials or its assembly, instead of just aesthetics.  Think of it as a blog version of Wallpaper magazine, with products that won’t necessarily empty your wallet.

Overall, it’s a pretty good site to draw some inspiration from.

(Thanks for the link, John!)
