patternity.
where have i been and why have i never heard of patternity, the London based design studio specialising in the discovery & application of pattern within the Fashion, Interior & Luxury fields??
Patternity consists of three core parts; an image RESOURCE featuring an archive of constantly updated patterned finds from around the world, an East London based studio where they work on a range of products, projects, designs, collaborations & consultations across the creative industries & also a curated online SHOP selling limited edition & one off patterned pieces. Through these three areas they aim to encourage people to see, enjoy & be inspired by the patterned world around them.
check them out, they have some pretty amazing stuff, and a great resource feed of unconventional pattern inspiration.

gypset+pulpartbook.
i just ordered these two books, and if you love all things bohemian and 1970s you must too! i absolutely cannot wait for them to arrive in my little mailbox.
Gypset Style: Jetset + Gypsy = Gypset, is about an emberging group of artists, musicians, fashion designers, surfers, and bon vivants– who lead semi-nomadic, unconventional lives. order here or visit the website here.
the Pulp Art Book– “Neil Krug’s stylized photos of his girlfriend [now wife], the model Joni Harbeck, were taken with Polaroid film years past its sell-by date. They have the kind of grainy, sun-scorched feel of a Sergio Leone spaghetti western. And ever since the couple began posting the photos on Flickr early this year, they’ve drawn a blaze of attention.” - The New York Times.
buy here or visit website here.
enjoy!

inspired.
i was so inspired by the work of spencer studio (who i posted about yesterday) that i started a few water-color projects of my own, here is a sneak peek.
matrimony.
i am fully aware how obsessed i am with artsy weddings and all of the creative little extras the cool couples throw in. i am especially in love with hand made invitations, while i LOVE letterpress, lately i have been really really into handmade, unperfect invites for that perfect day. First seen here, these hand painted save-the-dates, by spencer studio are just my style. (I love the art direction of the photos as well.)

sãopaulo.
A mid-century classic I'm drooling over in São Paulo, Brazil. I need to become a real grown-up asap so that I can visit places like this all the time. See more pictures here, along with the apartment's history and more information about its owner, architect Mauricio Arrudo.

Dan-ah Kim's paintings are hauntingly beautiful. I was first introduced to her work while working on the upcoming issue of Blü Magazine. I especially love the titles she gives each piece: hunting my demons and these i steal for you.
