I love Julia Edelmann of Buckingham ID’s showroom. I want to move in. Park my slippers under that Swedish couch. I’m sure Julia would let me and now is the prefect time. Works by Chicago artist Francine Turk (you may have seen pieces on the set of the Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn movie “The Break-up”) are clustered salon style across the walls. Beautiful. So Julia when you least expect it you’ll find a strange woman (moi) draped across a chair drinking it all in. Chill the champagne. I’ll be over so.
We received an email a couple days ago that without a doubt had to be shared with you all: “I’m Lady, an advertising creative from Manila and an avid reader and fan of your blog. You’ve featured our cat Kitty Bang Bang once on Monday’s Pets on Furniture. For the past year, my boyfriend and I have been constantly inspired by your featured interiors to improve our new home. Having an artist father, I’ve therefore asked him to paint a mural on our dining room wall, to break the sparseness of the space.” Oh, to have an artist for a father! This mural is fantastic!!! Thank you so much for sharing Lady!
I was scoping out the portfolio of architecture and interior design firm West Chin the other day to see if there were more photos I could showcase here that Jo hadn’t already done in her post back in June. I came across a swanky pad that I thought was worthy of it’s own post. This flat is modern but not too harsh, with funky bits here and there (including a couple sets of boobs and a pair of diaper chairs), and even some cute spaces for the kids (the parents must lock them in their rooms for fear of dirty hands on the furniture). FAB!
Scott Waterman is a favourite artist of mine whom I blogged about a little over a year ago. He’s also a favourite Flickr contact as I love keeping up to date with his latest works. Well, he emailed the other day with a link to a post about some of Asian-inspired art on the blog Chinoiserie Chic. Since I am not only a huge fan of Scott’s, but a huge fan of Chinoiserie, I thought I’d share a glimpse into this facet of his work. (Check out Beth’s post for more photos and details).
