Today is a grey day here in The Netherlands. This inspired me to show you various shades of grey (image from AnoukB & & Marjon Hoogervorst / Taverne Agency).

displaying kid’s art

kinderart.jpg

In August 2009 I posted a photo which showed a way of featuring kid’s drawings (you can read this post here). I did not have any children back then but now I have a baby son I can’t wait until he is old enough to make me some beautiful drawings! I also like the way how drawings are displayed in the image above. Great inspiration! I’m also loving that gorgeous yellow vintage chair.

letterpress wallpaper

letterbehang1.jpg

Today I’m loving … this unique typology wallpaper from Wall & Decò. This Italian company uses technical innovated materials and ideas to create original designs. The Wall & Decò wallpapers overcome the classical repetition on every roll of the same small graphic subjects, like the pattern of the common wallpapers. The unique pattern is spread all over the entire mural surface for dramatic effect.

The beautiful letterpress pattern (images above) seems to be three-dimensional, an optical illusion that gives the impression that the wall consists of type blocks.
