Obsessed with this house. How sick would it be sitting on an ocean view lot on Fire Island?! Good idea? GREAT idea!

Natural Curiosities
I recently came across the world of Natural Curiosities. The Cabinet of Natural Curiosities is a thesaurus complied by Dutch pharmacist, zoologist and collector, Albertus Seba. The collection includes illustrated specimens from the natural world with a focus on animal and sea life and is hailed as one of the greatest natural history achievements of the 18th century. The compilation has been turned into a coffee table book that has become a staple for modern designers as the rare and interesting images offer a unique design inspiration. I also recently came across an LA based company with the namesake Natural Curiosities helmed by artist/collector, Christopher Wilcox, who has compiled some beautiful and modern work inspired by Seba's curiosity with nature. Who's curious??
