i love photos that capture a lifestyle rather than just being a product shot... can you imagine wearing these tights on a Sunday morning in a loft style home, holding a cup of coffee in your hands and scanning the newspaper over a late breakfast of poached eggs on toast?

I am mesmerised by the work of Joan Salo. How fantastic would it be to have a giant piece hanging in the dining room... i think i would just sit there and stare at it all day.

10 lessons for young designers

Weiden+Kennedy are one of the coolest ad agencies I can think of. I went to Semi-Permanent in Sydney a few years ago and heard 2 art directors from W+K Portland speak - their approach to coming up with ideas is so different from what is taught in a book! 

Having said that, I found these lessons from John C Jay, Executive Creative Director of W+K (pictured above), very interesting. Although some seem like common sense, it's nice to have a reminder from time to time.

My favourite is: "Travel as much as you can. It is a humbling and inspiring experience to learn just how much you don’t know."

weird and wonderful

how cool are these sculptures by Ronit Baranga - they remind me of something out of a Tim Burton film. Imagine eating your cereal to find a gaping mouth at the bottom!
