Like paper

Wow! This is a LAMP! Concrete, though looks like paper. Pure hand work. Produced by Miriam Aust and Sebastian Amelung from the German studio aust & amelung. Called... "like paper" :) A lamp to die for, isn't it?!

Studio in stripes

"I love it" is not enough to express how much I like the studio of Tenka Gammelgaard, a Danish painter. I also love her affection for stripes and dots. All in black and white. Just perfect :)

New York, New York

Johanna Burke is a set designer living in Brooklyn, New York. I found the impressive pictures from her impressive apartment and studio while browsing old interviews on Freunde von Freunden. And I love that New York, New York feeling! Have a great day wherever in the world you are!

Live nautical

Atelier 688 is a very cool Art and Design studio located in Toronto, Canada and founded by artist, photographer, and writer Alex Jowett. It showcases the work of local Canadian artists and designers with a leaning towards the use of reclaimed and vintage materials. The Atelier 688 team creates a lot of great things - from smaller, unique works up to interiors and house or cottage builds. But what I love the most, is this nautical image. Great, isn't it?!

Lamps and chairs

Today, I spent more than an hour browsing the incredibly cool website Where They Create by Paul Barbera. This interior based photographer travels the world looking for artists and creatives. His website is a visual documentation of their creative environments. Where They Create is also out as a book featuring interviews with 32 studios. I say a big YES to the cozy studio of Luca Cipelletti, Milan based architect. Especially, because of those wonderful lamps and cute chairs...
