It’s been a while since I’ve written about a product here and when I came across Sophie Aschauer and SerpentSea I thought – this is perfect! Sophie creates mats and key fobs out of recycled nautical twine, which comes in a variety of colors. When I first started the Yurt Project three years ago I used […]

Two years ago here on this blog I wrote about Heather Knight who makes phenomenal porcelain tiles inspired by natural elements from her studio, Elemental Clay. Jennifer Prichard works out of her studio in Austin, TX, J Prichard also making textured porcelain tiles but taking it to a new level with amazing wall installations as well. […]

Two weeks have gone by in a blink! I’ve been busy on projects for our home, which include sewing curtains, cleaning the oven (it was a process), patching holes in the master bathroom (after therapeutically removing the drywall mollies), and more. But I’m back and in the time I was absent from posting, Tamara Magel’s […]

I learned about Amy Helfand today via Apartment Therapy and fell in love with her carpets. Amy is originally from Chicago but now lives and works in Brooklyn. I love how topographical some of her works are – both her prints and her newer rug works. The one above is called Trail Runner and it’s […]

I spent this weekend in the Hamptons with some friends and am already nostalgic for the greenery and the beach. I thought I would post about Ted Muehling who finds inspiration in all sorts of organic forms, flora and fauna. He creates works in his New York studio out of a variety of materials including […]

Another find, this one via All The Best, is Lorely Furniture, founded by Laura Harris. In perusing her site I found many pieces that I really liked, all small-ish tables, and all oddly named after recent ex-flames, seriously…David, Alexander, Duncan… I won’t hold the naming against her – they are all as chic and classic […]

The online shop, Droog, brings together many designers that I normally may not have come across. What first led me to it was seeing this Hare Mat in a photo of someone’s apartment. My first and only pet in my life was a rabbit once upon a time and this large mat reflects my longstanding […]
