Sasa clock by Thorunn Arnadottir

Beautiful and poetic conceptual design by Thorunn Arnadottir. From the designer's website: "The time is read from the color coded necklace. Each bead represents a 5 minute increment. As the wheel turns, every 5 minutes a bead drops down the cord. Orange beads represent hours, gold and silver beads represent noon and midnight."........"To "stop time", remove the beads and wear them proudly, as a statement that you are in control of your own minutes.
The clock is manufactured and sold by Daniel Estes Designs

I love this place (and the clothes!)

The clothes of the japanese born Los Angeles based designer Momo Suzuki are really something, but look at her place! Again (I've kept coming back to that over and over again for a while now) so simple, so uncomplicated and beautiful! The photos are shot by photographer and artist Jeana Shon who has a great blog.

Lamp in clothes

Hello again!! It's nice to be back. The workshop went very well and we were so impressed by engagement the students showed us, we had so much fun! (See some pics here)
I really like the idea of this lamp below, by Ana Kraš. What a great way to reuse your old favourite clothes!

So long for a little week!

I'm going away for a few days to teach a workshop in illustration here. I'm excited to meet with the students and Becci and I hope to inspire and surprise them a bit. A lot of exciting things are happening in my life right now (finally!) and I hope to share some of it with you soon. Until then, take care and visit some of the excellent blogs in my blogroll! See you in a little week!

Reclaimed wood!

When my parents moved in to their first apartment in the middle of the 70's a large part of their furninture was "based-on-a-cube" and homebuilt out of particleboard.  Very trendy at that time I learned when I laid my hands on some old "Bo Bedre" magazines a few months ago.

This buildning system is called Panels & Plugs and is developed by Mope. The pieces are sold separately so you can either buy the whole thing, panels, hinges, connectors and handles OR you can choose to use your own pieces of reclaimed wood! Like it!

In my mailbox today!

Remember the post I made with the lovely collage by Liesl Pfeffer back in July? Well, this collage is now waiting to be framed and put on my wall! The print was sent to me by Kristina of Up your wall, an internet based gallery where you can buy really nice and affordable prints. The reason I got the print was that Kristina found Liesl through my blog! I love to connect people in real life, that's the best feeling in the world, but I never thought that this blog actually could be a place for that too! Love the print and good luck with Up yor wall, Kristina! Thanks a million!
