Cover crush on "Crushing digits"


Posters of the new V.E.T.O album "crushing digits" are to be seen all over Copenhagen. There are three different versions of the cover each with different shapes and colors. I´m loving the color combos both individually and collective.

Brian Dettemars universe is just so enchanting. Love his work!

In the name of recykling 3


It has been amazing to get so much response on the Stendig lampshade from the great blogsphere.
I have been experimenting with the Stendig calendar since the lamp shape project, and out of all my experiments I like my new bed headboard the most. I simply stapled two black stendig sheets on to the wall. There actually is a black painted headboard already there from way back in 2004, so it was high time for me to do something new.

Blue waffles




Kristjan came back from Canada Monday night (happy days) which also means I have my camera to take (preferable) great pictures with.
I had a afternoon snack yesterday, just could´n resist two organic honey waffles and a glass of cold milk, ahhhh! I´m currently loving white and blue in all shapes and sizes.

Dressed in white



Artek have given some of there classic Alto furniture new life with the help of whtie paint. I´we grown up with Alvar Alto furniture in my childhood home and I love the naked wood look, but I´m sure that I could get used to have a white tea trolley. Picture above the new white tea trolley. Picture below my parent´s tea trolley

Graphico Mexico


I worked as a waiter at the Danish House of Sport way back, there they had all the Olympic posters hanging on the wall around the gigantic house I remember that Mexico68 hanged in the Handball section. Mexico68 is my favorite olympic poster by fare. The black and white geometric pattern is mesmerizing and not to forget hypnotizing. Lance Wyman designed the type especially for the olympic games plus logo. The poster was made as a collaboration of three artists: Pedro Ramirez Vazquez, architect and President of the Organizing Committee for the Games, Eduardo Terrazas (MEX) and Lance Wyman (USA).

Apropo the good old days...

The good old days or just old days



Came across a faroese site about a village that was. I just wanted to share these two pictures. The first image depicts a mother with her children. I imagine that the father is out fishing and that the youngest hardly knows his father. The men would be out fishing for six months or more back than. (notice the hanging dry fish)
The second image shows some of the villagers arriving in boat, how the women kept so clean is a mystery to me.
