These Things No. 05
time for another one of these (things)
exquisite design work done for the nolitan hotel by marque creative – as seen via september industry
the work of isabelle arsenault as seen via where the lovely things are
loving every single movie moment over at if we don’t, remember me
summer = watermelons (i can’t wait to crack open my first one)
these rooms by james leland day
the levis photo workshop looks like a dream – as seen via miss modular
spending more time obsessing over issues of vogue from the seventies
these lights at the barbican foodhall & lounge
jonas bergstrand‘s work
and finally… cats + snow = golden
i’m dreaming of a zara christmas
all i want for christmas is to be dressed head to toe in anything from zara. then again i would also like it to snow this christmas… which is more likely to happen?
mr. a hayes
adam hayes is an artist, illustrator & designer whose hand rendered type i like very much. buy prints here.
present + correct
sometimes i wonder what it would be like if we could go back to school as our adult selves, without all the worries that plagued us as teenagers. man, we were idiots! oh you think you weren’t but you actually were, sorry to break it to you.
i would for one thing have had better stationery. no more space cases with shit drawn all over them. i would have been a proper person with rad stationery. these are by present + correct (also at etsy)
i realised after i’d written this post that space cases might already be irrelevant, or probably don’t make sense to anyone outside south africa. well, they were the pencil boxes to have in my day. i remember when i was 12 years old space cases suddenly hit the scene – people went bananas for them. and they were actually big enough to fit bananas in.
it’s fun in the sun
these images are part of john van noate‘s collection, a very interesting guy on flickr who posts entire stories within his photo sets. like this one, parts of which made me laugh. and this one which is about his time at woodstock.
this particular set is part of ‘the florida sex stories’ – but you have to be listed as a friend of mr. van noate to read them. if you’re curious and he decides you’re not some kind of pervert, he’ll let you.
going on the pics alone i’d say it makes for some interesting reading. yes that is bettie page.
in my fantasies i have more than one house
may i introduce you to my new winter… and summer homes? they are in norway. at least i’m pretty sure they’re in norway, as the architect’s website is in norwegian (i’m guessing) and my google translate won’t activate.
my winter home is pretty rad because it has reindeer antlers on the pitch of the roof (i put them there)
my summer home is awesome because of all the windows, so i can let the light in until 10pm. or whenever it sets in norway. does the sun even set in norway in summer? i’ll soon find out.
you can come visit, i’ll try to find some scandanavian style pull out couches.
