One month…OMG. It’s been so much fun but lots of work! The most exciting thing is all the friends we’ve made and all the support you’ve given us. Kim and I only met a couple of months ago on Flickr and look at us now. So the cupcakes are a thank you for all of you who visit and like what you see. Happy first month birthday to all of us! We’re really keen to know where you all come from. Let us know in the comments. Thanks again for your support.

An exclusive members club in the old and new centre of Berlin, the China Club was founded and designed by Anne Maria Jagdfelt. An interesting juxtaposition of bygone luxury and marxist propaganda I’d love to settle in for a scotch and the International Herald Tribune

The name says it all. A little riser and tread thread.

“The main purpose of my work is to provoke people into using their imagination. Most people spend their lives housing in dreary, grey-beige conformity, mortally afraid of using colours. By experimenting with colours, textiles and furniture and utilizing the latest technologies, I try to new ways, to try to encourage people to use their fantasy and make their surroundings more exciting.” – Verner Panton 1926-1998

The powder room, the wc, the cloakroom,the little boys/girls room, the 0.5 of the 2.5 bathrooms, the toilet. An oft neglected space just ripe for decorating. Thinking of something a little “risky” elsewhere in the house, try it out first in the smallest room.
