CCM DESIGN
Furniture, interior, design
There are literally so many furniture options here in Bali, but one company that excels in furniture manufacturing is CCM. This is a family company of many years and has built up an excellent reputation for quality furniture at very good prices. Their headquarters are deep in the heart of Denpasar, so you may need to check for directions Jl Imam Bonjol, 20 A-B, Denpasar T: 482 793 / 482 928 Enter the small and non pretentious showroom that showcase some of CCM’s best sellers, this is where you will find Arifin the affable owner to chat about your ideas (an apt is necessary) he is a great believer in giving the client what they want - be it classic lines to retro in furniture styles, to wonderful wallpapers from Italy to loads of fabric books for you to peruse, not forgetting that he excels in leather and suede. Overseas clients are known to send their favorite fabric rolls across to Bali for Arifin to use for a furniture order which gives you an idea of how popular he is. Arifin is in touch with the world in the business that he excels, that’s why CCM is a haven for interior designers, architects and property people to seek out the newest in all of the above. It’s also a place where you and I are welcome too!

Heliconia
The one & only name for fabulous flowers!
On a balmy Saturday evening, Heliconia celebrated the re-opening of its fabulous new store just a few doors up from its original site, Jl Raya Seminyak, No 88, Basangkasa, T: 732 700. My comment is that the new Heliconia has to one of the most beautiful flower stores anywhere in the world. Michael, the clever guy behind the name, is truly a whiz when it comes to making a design statement, particularly when it comes to flowers. The composition of the most lavish and divine flowers (full blown pure white roses from Ecuador!) interlaced with other exotic mixes, branches, candles and fruit. Hanging arrangements to floral art set in glass to armloads to just sweep up into your arms, it’s all here instore, total inspiration to study, admire and buy! A smart new seating area provides the perfect spot to sit and contemplate your floral choice or to discuss options for forthcoming weddings, events and parties. And to further act as a backdrop to these floral masterpieces are large pieces of floral photography by Love Life & Laf Mor. These are limited editions, one offs and unique which would certainly make a statement in your home or work setting. Floral greeting gift cards are also available. Smart food on the night was served by the newest around town, Grocer & Grind, Jl Kayu Jati, No 3x, Petitenget Beach, all washed down with lychee martinis and raspberry fruit capiroskas!
