Flickr report



I am a big fan of SMOSCH both her blog and her creations. I discovered something new when looking at her flickr images - a Swedish tradition called Fika. I think I'm a big fan of it already - it means taking a coffee break with friends. and according to Amelie my Swedish colleague it's the equivalent of a cheeky pint. SMOSCH makes hers look extremely stylish by using beautiful ceramics and generally lovely 'bits and bobs'. more flickr reports soon....


I have recently spotted some real little gems on Flickr. This innovative poster taken by seanyt at B&Q. Great way to advertise wallpaper.

New Books



Look at that amazing wall ! I would love to see that for real. It looks like it's painted straight on to the wall and ceiling.




I ordered myself a new wallpaper book and it made me go back and look at one of my favorite purchases. 'The Decorative Twenties' I bought it from a beautiful independent book shop in camden. It has some lovely inspirations especially the ceramics.

Habitat






beautiful new wallpapers in Habitat, loving the Matthew Willaimson design - he does one on a black background with his trade mark peacock feather. i'm pleased to see other dark background wallpapers - would love to see it in someones home.

Living etc.



i looked up this site All City Papers and it looks like a really exciting project, it's great how wallpaper can stretch across from argos to cutting edge projects like this.










When I got back from my trip away i was looking at Living etc. and the first image i saw was this moroccian table ! there is also some interesting pattern editorial and some interesting wallpaper ads.

patterns in Morocco






i have just returned from an amazing experience in marrakech. they really know a thing or two about wall decoration, symmetry and design.
