since '98

Woouf Woouf

Stay Hungry – Stay Foolish is my current mindset. Woouf is hard to beat in the staying foolish department.

These are – huh – bean bags – sofa – cushions – mobile covers!! Amazing!! Good for the kidz playroom – small or tall – young or old. 100% Made in Barcelona.

Here’s my fav list – obviously.

_______

The Beatles Drum

_______

DJ bag

_______

MiniMoog official collection

Diamonyte duo

Gilles & Cecilie Studio design, illustrate, curate, paint walls, write copy, share their knowledge through lectures, talks and workshops, make tailored work, like to push boundaries. Whew!

_______

Their works feel like a never-ending Summer of youthful boundary-less exhuberance. Loads and loads of colors – or none. Diamond shapes are a must obviously but not limited to. Surfaces – in-store – outdoors – wall or window treatments abound as packaging to stamps.

Life choreographed and celebrated.

Kat Teutsch

Kat Teutsch photographic style is like cup to cake and leave to twig. Not overstuffed! Not overlit! Not over staged! Not overdone.

Natural. No less than quietly brilliant. Genuine. Feels ‘real’ and warm.

_______

She is a food, still life and interiors photographer living in New York City. She also shoots a lot of travel/personal projects around the world.

Deluxemodern etc.

Christine Tafoya is a self-professed design addict and renamed ‘etiquette‘ by ‘manners‘ to describe her online store Dear Miss Modern Market ethos where you can find exquisite ‘templates’ for special occasions.

_______

I am a grown-up geeky tomboy eye candy seeking editor while she is this buoyant festive stylish stylist for brand and home!

She recently quipped: ‘HTML gives me asthma.’ To which I replied: ‘<a><strong>O2</strong></a>’.

_______

She befits perfectly the description of a Powagirrrl: Women who rock the design scene with more than pink design..

..and Pink is definitely a predominant color with none of the pejoratives.

_______

Deluxemodern design studio tagline: ‘Mixing business with Pretty – Specializing in all things chic and clever.’

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Studio vistas

Love the presentation of Skidmore statement: "Agency? Studio? Same thing, right? Not to us. We think it’s important to do the little things, ask the tough questions, be authentic and always strive for the extraordinary."

To capitalize on large interior studio vistas laced with morsels of well thought-out captions provoke interest. Cool space.

Camp and Furnace

Camp and Furnace is a cultural hub over 34,000 sq.ft comprising events spaces, bar, eatery, nightclub, photographic and location studios, indoor boutique caravan hotel and pop-up retail.

A large scale project and collaboration with architects FVMA, Elevator studios and chef Steven Burgess to redevelop a disused series of warehouses in Liverpool’s Baltic Triangle.

_______

I heard of the project while in the making and am proud to feature it on Netdiver Mag. This type of project should be replicated all over the world.

_______

In prep new website relaunch.

Pretty letters

Look at all these pretty colors – ooops – pretty letters. Dazzling lines and typographic mixes and surfaces adding layers of somewhat vintage textures and perhaps – a bit over the board color wise – but given that all these appear and are installed in urban environments – possibly the right dose – to kick your day into full speed.
