Lååånglunch

Idag lunchade jag hos Marianne Pettersson–Soold. Alltid lika kul att hälsa på i någon annans ateljé. Hon visade några spännande tapetmönster, som f.ö. fanns att beskåda på Trädgårdsmässan i år, och hon är en stjärna på kalligrafi och broderi. Vem får inte lust att brodera när man ser alla dessa karamelliga färger...

Today I had lunch with Marianne Pettersson-Soold. Always fun to visit someone else's studio. She showed some exciting wallpaper pattern, which were on display at the Garden Fair this year, and she is a star on calligraphy and embroidery. Who does'nt want to embroider when you see all these lollipop colours...

What is hidden in the dust









Har dammat några gamla böcker i min bokhylla och tillåtit mig inspireras.

Busy day

Paul Smith, årets Guest of Honour på Stockholm Furniture Fair 2010. Surprisingly, human and natural, quite nice actually.



Among other things, he exhibit items that were posted to him by a fan for over twenty years, but he do not know by who. I and Marie Lundgren Carlgren gazing at the exhibition.



Later in the afternoon we went to the art book shop Konst-ig and met Japanese designer Yurio Seki.


There she exhibited her products and books. Of course, I had my copy with me and got it signed, always fun. Hope that Salvia soon will be found at KIKI in Stockholm.

My kind of book



It really is! Finally I had the time. You have to give this inspiring book, where Camilla Engman shows her work and life, plenty of time. I discover new things everytime I open it.
