apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Modern mobiles. From our first college art class introduction to the mobiles of Alexander Calder, we fell in love with dangling sculptures and the way objects moved and twirled in the air suspended from thin wires.

But many mobiles for kids can be rather precious, and we wanted a modern mobile appropriate for a nursery that both our son and we would appreciate.

So we were delighted to come across the beautiful creations of Los Angeles-based artist, Helen Ige.

Though Ige makes more grown-up mobiles, there are also some good choices to hang in a child's room.
