I wonder how many of your interior design students and home decor buffs like to go window shopping through catalogs. I receive so many each week, but I browse through them all, and do so voraciously.

It's fun to see what's newly available for the home, and in particular, I love the influence of international design trends on our formerly "Martha Stewart" American design scene (not to take anything away from Martha; we owe her a debt of gratitude for establishing a high standard for American decor and entertaining, and she still sets the bar in many ways for the U.S. vernacular).

But I digress - catalog shopping! Here are a few of my favorites from the Fall 2012 MoMA Design Store catalog.
Makoto Komatsu Crinkle Bag Vase (1975)
Click on each photo for more information, and realize that your purchase serves double duty: it satisfies your craving for new design finds and it supports the Museum of Modern Art in NYC.

Ashley May and David Evans Kitchen Caddy (2011)
