5th Ave Apt

A peek at what I was working on in New York this December.  A 5th Ave penthouse filled with light, but also super low key.  This client is determined to keep things un-stuffy, which makes for a fun, loose finished product.
This is the first phase of what will be a three story re-build.

I walked into a studio sale in Brooklyn while I was in New York this December and came across this lovely work.  Maybe next Christmas when we're rich?

Go Out

Tom brought this amazing magazine back from Asia and we're both obsessed.  This article is a radical mix of techy and hippy.  Plus how amazing is the model?  I think he's Tom's new idol.

I'd kill for this bad boy

olifanten paadjes

I came across a (brief) article in Dwell about this guy that documents these paths in the Netherlands.  I remember talking about these in Architecture School (at one time I actually thought I had the smarts for this degree).  They are the natural paths that people make.  A great example of these is on a college campus when it snows a bunch.  Before the plows plow the side walks people start making patterns in the snow.  The easiest or most natural way to get somewhere reveals itself.  Such an interesting idea.

Well all of these years later I come across this article of a guy archiving them.  It's real hard to read (meaning impossible) because it's in dutch, but you can see a few more of these images here.

A A Bondy

Tom took me to this show last night.  Tom is in love with him and now I must admit I can see why.



Gold Leaves opened, but we only got there for their last song.  I liked their sound, but I REALLY liked their album cover.
