Aviator Tomcat Bed

Can’t stop dreaming of flight? Perhaps you should sleep in the Aviator Tomcat Bed from British designer Timothy Oulton. Each handmade piece (available in king or queen size) is encased in a riveted Spitfire finish with a softly worn, ribbed leather headboard that opens to reveal a top-secret storage compartment.

Airport Layout Canvas Print

While casual travelers may loathe airports, frequent travelers depend on them. When business keeps you constantly on the move, your local airport becomes something of a second home, so why not bring it into your real home or office with a customizable airport layout canvas print? 08 Left is all about airport adoration, so search for your favorite from more than 500 airport codes in the collection, and simply select your canvas size. Further customize your piece with color, text and even design changes to incorporate flight numbers, air traffic control towers or whatever relates to your personal journeys. 40” X 60” print: $500.

cabinet

Arthur Rolling Wine Bar Cabinet

If you’ve ever dreamed of filling your trunk with wine after trips to France, Argentina or California, this one’s for you. The Arthur Rolling Wine Bar Cabinet, available from Kathy Kuo Home, evokes the romance of early travel as an upended trunk that opens to reveal your home wine bar. At just more than 55 inches tall and roughly 2 feet wide and deep, the spacious cabinet contains seven drawers and more than two dozen compartments for bottle and glassware storage, along with a small, mirrored prep space for pouring (feel free to mix cocktails here, too). The stately piece is constructed of maple wood, pine wood, leather and brass. $4,180.

pillow

Air Force Embroidered Pillow

Pay homage to the heroes of American aviation with catstudio’s United States Air Force embroidered pillow. On a tea-toned background with black border piping and a zipper closure, the Air Force pillow is designed with symbols, places, people and traditions unique to the branch, hand-drawn with input from the Air Force licensing department and both active and retired personnel. While the military collection from catstudio maintains a touch of the brand’s hallmark whimsy and cheer, these pillows tell an important story with reverence about those who serve and have served. $286.
