Rough Luxe

This is an aesthetic I have always loved. The new shabby chic is 'Rough Luxe'. There is a network of shops, hotels and restaurants that embrace the philosophy. An interesting movement that appreciates original features in a brave way. Damp or a leak? why not leave the stain.

The Microsoft ad's come to a tv near me.

After helping out on these ad's during the summer, I was pleased to finally see them on the television. I am looking to have a little collection of them on my blog.

What a lovely Idea!

Worth a look.

Butter Mountains and Wine Lakes.

For my summer project I chose the word abundance to illustrate. My interest and focus was on the over production of food, the predominance of certain foods and the issues that surround this. The phrase 'Butter Mountains and Wine Lakes' was used in the headlines during the occurrence of specific food gluts. The overproduction of butter and wine were not the only examples, there were warehouses full of grain and simply no demand. For the project I designed some butter packaging and a wine label to advertise the statement to contextualise the phrase to consumers.

Despotism

I would love to do a project simply based on amazing voices such as the one in this video. Where have they gone? perhaps this is something to muse for the future.
