white trout

Love the simple beauty of this handmade sign from art buyer Analisa Payne's home - as featured by Victoria from sfgirlbybay.

for the love of...

Really beautiful packaging for LoveJoy vodka by ID Branding. Four patterned colourways with endless possibilities to introduce new designs. What a fantastic attention to detailing.

positive negatives

Really loving this piece from Melbourne artist Catherine Campbell. Beautiful use of negative space.

publisher textiles

Thanks to Julia of Studio Home Creative for reminding me of the beauty that is Publisher Textiles...

pure style

I love perusing through the portfolio of the beach studios, a boutique location agency out of the UK. So many beautiful locations, and one in particular which I have seen grace the pages of more than a couple of glossies.


Such pure, simple styling offset with beautiful details. These gorgeous spaces within the Foster House owe their look to stylist Atlanta Bartlett (who also owns the beach studios).

I just love the layering of texture and soft colour. Sigh.

boxes

Since I'm one of those bowerbird types, I love boxes and containers of all kinds - especially when used as a decorative theme or grouping.

Why is it so hard to find beautiful storage boxes (like these from lille) in Australia? Any suggestions on where to look?

pillowy

Beautiful little collection of handmade pillows.

happy friday!

Here's to hoping for good things this weekend.

maybe we have met before

If you are down Melbourne way, don't miss Maybe We Have Met Before, a collection of super fine illustrators (including one of my favourites, Eveline Tarunadjaja - one of her stunning pieces pictured above) at Kick Gallery until the 24th of May.

pinhole patterns

Beautifully simple, yet very detailed pinhole patterned cards by Heather Smith Jones.

fern animals

Fern Animals might just be the sweetest softies I have ever seen. I love that each Fern Animal is handmade, and no two are alike. If you have a peek at Ashley Anna Brown's flickr images, you'll find a menagerie of Fern Animals past from foxes to lions and this gorgeous little deer.

Can't wait to see what lands in her store next.

around here...

I've been having a great time photographing things around the studio lately for the new website.

I've had much less time this week - the projects are piling up. Something like this.

nantaka joy

Looks like a lovely new collection from nantaka joy. Can't wait to see what comes out of the upcoming stationery show in New York.

tonal beauty

Love the shapes and tonal interplay of Dinosaur Designs ceramics.

Although I would likely choose the neutral tones for myself, I couldn't resist this vibrant collection today.

textures and tones

Love the amassed texture and tonal subtleties in the image by Reed Davis.

funnel design

Design by Eric Kass of Funnel for Ellen Jackson Portraiture. Such exquisite detailing.
