Japan: Shinzi Katoh
Readers of design blogs and zakka-lovers would be no stranger to the amazing work of Shinzi Katoh. I have been a massive fan for a long time. So, I was extremely excited to meet him when we were in Japan. Mr Shinzi Katoh showed us hand sketches of some of his early work, the designs for next years diaries, his... Continue reading

Japan: cat parlor
Its no secret that the Japanese can be a little bit quirky. So when in Tokyo, we decided to do as the Tokyoites do and go to a cat parlor (they call it a 'cat house' but I think cat parlor is cuter). This one is at the top of Tokyu Hands in Ikebukero and is called Nekobukero (a little... Continue reading

Japan: natural beauty
I mentioned in my last post that we have just come back from Japan (we've been back less than a week). We've been a few times over the last 5 years and each time is different. Different because we visit different places, our children are older each time (note: I'm not saying that it gets easier), we're comparing to the... Continue reading

Settle in and get cosy... I'm coming back
Its been a long time with no blogging and I'm feeling a huge lack of creativity in my life. It's all wrong. Good blogging takes up time. Just slapping up a picture and saying 'I like this' is not enough to make a blog vibrant and interesting. And while I feel I have very little in the way of spare... Continue reading

I'm inspired
I know its been an unusually long time since I have blogged - I admit the transition to full time non-designer work has been quite challenging. Unfortunately, Paisley St Claire has been one of the things that I put to the side in an attempt to master the new routines. However, I saw these prints on etsy today and I... Continue reading

So you may have noticed I have been a bit quiet lately? I've actually decided to take a break from being a designer and go back to the corporate world.

The Spun Chair
Just because we're grown ups doesn't mean we don't like to act like a kid sometimes. I think designer Thomas Heatherwick must have had this in mind when he came up with the Spun Chair. Produced by Italian design house Magis, the Spun Chair, looks and acts like a giant spinning top. If you want to see it in action,... Continue reading
