NY Break | Allison Patrick | Typographic Light
|January 25, 2012
Did you see my NY Break? It’s been way too long so the minute I stumbled upon Allison Patrick’s rad lighting pendant lamps, I knew it was time to have some extra delicious New York flavor around here. It feels like Allison gives the term “crafty person” a new meaning. She is crazy talented and her lamps are so pretty! I’m sure there are piles and piles of new designs over there just waiting to come out.
BTW, you can read an interview with Allison right here or even visit her blog right here.
Just one more thing, the name behind it all is Zipper8Lighting, that’s right Zipper8Lighting, start memorizing it ;)

NY Break | Fay Andrada | Shapes That Make You Smile
|March 27, 2011

  • Just an ordinary day at the studio
  • Suippo Bangle Bracelets
  • Viuhka Brass Earrings
  • Kirves Earrings and Lautta Iso Necklace
  • Sakara Earrings
Lets start with three facts: a graphic designer, an illustrator, a metalsmith. All three are in fact one Fay Andrada.
This lady has what it takes when it comes to making drop dead gorgeous jewelry!
I can’t stress enough how rare it is to find simple yet unique pieces of heaven out there and Fay knows the right mix of shapes, materials and simplicity.
Don’t skip her blog and shop.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you about getting hooked ;)

 Re Jin Lee is one of my idols. Not many people can work beautifully with the white and simple aspect of design.
On the other hand, not many will say something like: “I purposely kept the design very minimal so it goes well with any other tableware”.
When I need a quite moment, I wander into Re Jin’s Bailey Doesn’t Bark web site. She has it all from tableware to jewelry and stationary. The fact that she shares her process and behind the scenes makes me love her even more! Thank you Re Jin for all the beauty you bring to the world!

 I guess friendship bracelets happen all over the world.

|

 Alessandra Olanow is all about capturing a glimpse of the hectic NY life.
I find it exciting getting to know this city through local eyes. The daily newspaper, the local dogs or even the ordinary couples, they all have a place in Alessandra’s world of creation and I’m happy to join the ride.
You can read a lot more about Alessandra right here.
Don’t forget to visit her shop which is filled with tote bags that make it hard to choose which one to buy first ;)
