Anyone who knows me knows that for years I’ve loved gummi bears, not the designer ones in little tubs but the good old fashioned Haribo’s that get hard after a day with the bag open. I love them. A few years ago my boss gave me a gift of a gummi bear lamp — it […]

I think perhaps it’s my new home in Boston and the fact that it’s much colder up here than New York was but I can’t get blankets off my mind. Just last night I had to pack a few away into the trunk in my bedroom because there were simply too many blankets on my […]

The brilliant minds of Rubie Green and Brand Arts, who frequently team up on projects like Lonny Photo, have unveiled their latest and greatest as of yesterday — Lonny Mag. Many are calling this the follow-up to Domino, which sadly closed recently due to the economy. I have talked to many friends since the launch […]

Tomorrow is the Whitney Museum’s annual art party, which also has an auction component. I was going through the art that they’re auctioning and came across the artist Michele Oka Doner who I can’t believe I didn’t know about before.

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 fabulous female textile designer I learned about today is Carolina Irving who sort of reminds me of John Robshaw in her patterns but her touch is much lighter. Her Andaluz print is on 100% hemp and is hand-printed. Above is in Paprika, below is Lichen, which I also really like. It seems natural that […]

I’m regularly surprised by the artists that operate within a few blocks of my apartment here in New York. After writing about Lonny Photo I discovered Patrick Cline worked a two minute walk from me in Chelsea. In reading about Christopher Spitzmiller I learned he’s just a few short blocks north of me as well […]

While I’m partial to Dash and Albert for their sturdiness and cost-effective pricing I also love Madeline Weinrib’s rugs for their design and durability too. My friends Samantha and Leah have several of the pink Brooke rug in their apartment and it’s elegant while not being too loud for their space. As a huge fan […]
