Escape to the tropics — at home
This digital mural from Graham & Brown covers 8 ½ feet by 6 feet of wallwith sandy beaches, tall palms, blue water and clear skies. Sigh. It's enough to make you forget the rain, wind and chilly temps ... for a moment.

Something to squawk about
Skip the boring waiter's tool and pop open your favorite beverage with designer Alessandro Mendini's colorful Parrot Corkscrew.
Island light
Inspired by designs from the '50s, the Cabana Joe's table lamp and shade from Lamps Plus add a tropical glow to any room. The wood-finish lamp is 25 inches high and takes a 150-watt bulb. $119.91. www.lampsplus.com
Coral-inspired basket
Although it looks like coral from the sea, Emma Silvestris designed the Mediterraneo basket in metal to gently cup items such a fruits or breads. There's a small version (about 8 inches in diameter) and a large (about 12 inches diameter).
$58-$75. www.mosmyownspace.com
