Your House- Olafur Eliasson

your house by olafur eliasson

a commission by the library council of the museum of modern art...'your house' is a limited-edition artist's book with a laser-cut negative impression of his house in copenhagen. each of the 454 pages is individually cut and corresponds to 2.2 cm of the actual house. as readers leaf through the pages, they slowly make their way through the rooms of the house from front to back, thus constructing a mental and physical narrative.

Heath Ceramics

I've been familiar with Heath Ceramics for quite awhile now, I would love to go to their factory and showroom in Sausalito someday. In the meantime, I was thrilled to get my first thing from Heath from Katie B. as a thank-you for helping throw her baby shower! Isn't it cute? Can't wait to go the farmer's market to buy a few buds to put in the vase.

The Makerie

The Makerie is a U.K. based paper design studio. I can't imagine how much time and patience it would take to make their creations. Check out more of their portfolio here.

New print!

We've been having a lot of fun arranging our new apartment. We finally started putting art on the walls which makes such a huge difference! I try to mix it up and not just have my own art on the walls which would be boring (for me) so we're incorporating a lot of artwork from our friends and local artists. I just bought a new print from Diana Sudyka, one of my faves. Her work is so whimsical and fun and I like how inspired she is by the natural world. I know birds (especially owls) are everywhere but I couldn't resist this guy:

School Supplies

Buying school supplies was my favorite part of going back to school. I don't get to buy fresh supplies each August like I used to but I still have a thing for notebooks, pens, folders, etc. I've seen a new company named Poppin on a few blogs recently and it looks pretty awesome. Modern, colorful, office supplies that aren't too expensive (at first glance).

Weekend in California

Los Angeles lemons! From Molly and Sean's tree.

We just got back from a lovely, sunny weekend in L.A. and Santa Monica! We went for Katie + Bob's baby shower, it was a shame we couldn't stay longer but we had some wonderful times visiting with old friends:)

love is in the air

Last weekend was the first of three weddings we're going to in the next month and this weekend we're flying to L.A. for a baby shower- lots to celebrate these days! I feel so lucky that we can share these milestones with our close friends.
Started getting my studio set up this week finally, I am so excited to have more space to spread out and to have a great excuse to get everything organized!
