Bri's Loft

My dream of buying an airy loft apartment here in Broughty Ferry with a lovely view of the sea is slim to non-existent...unless I can find a plot of land and self-build, hmm?  But as the search for the perfect pad continues, I will leave you with this to feast on.  This is the home of Bri Emery over at designlovefest - her work & style is enviable and it's lovely to see it being showcased in her home as well.  Bookmark her blog, it's a must!

Paper Delights

Talk about inspiration...while doing some research for my new community project I stumbled across this paper installation by Madrid-based artist Nuria Mora.  This was her piece for Arco 2012 and I am completely blown away.  I love the vibrancy and scale of it...and I happen to be a bit of a magnet for a bit of origami and geometric shapes :) This has given me real food for thought for our 'urban installation' project.  Watch out Dundee, that's all I'm saying!

MSGM

I really love this 2012 pre-fall collection from Italian designer Massimo Giorgetti over at MSGM - textures, print clashes and peplums, what more could I ask for!  So which is your favourite?

Drift Away On Endless Bliss



















Between work and recovering from a throat operation, I've been a little short on time and things to say recently... but this lot above pretty much sums up my mood right now... Happy Monday :)

Mociun

I have a definite weakness for jewellery. I love simple shapes and ethereal designs, and this collection from Mociun is my latest crush.  The designer Catlin Mociun started the company 5 years ago and produces everything from printed textiles to ceramics and jewellery.  The ring below reminds me of the scene at the end of The Goonies when the lady drops the jewels from the marble bag into Mikey's hand!!  If anyone fancies proposing, this would guarantee a yes ;)  Happy Monday everyone!





I love the double-sided rings...

Smile and Nod


Saw this the other day and thought 'I can relate to that!'  It's a very busy Friday for me today, working to a hectic and stressful deadline...  Off to see Coriolanus tonight at the DCA and on an exciting note, Brian Cox will be there in the flesh to introduce the film!  Have a good weekend everyone!

Life according to my iphone

  It's been all work and no play these past few months - pretty much all of the photos I have been taking lately are to be used within resource packs.  And as I work for a community organisation, I never feel completely comfortable posting images of young people that haven't give their permission for them to be used in this way...  So all I am left with is my trusty iphone for those impromptu moments!  Hopefully I will be able to show my latest work soon x
