If and when I need glasses

I’d like a pair like Deiter Rams’ (photo by Abisag Tüllmann).

If and when I need a new piece of furniture, I’d like the chair he designed in 1962 (photos from Vitsoe).

Read an interesting feature on Rams’ influence on Apple here. (Thanks Terry.)

Almost too easy

This was fun so I thought I’d play the random association game with this living room.

Believe it or not, it’s from a house made of dirt and straw. Even though I prefer those made of drywall and hardwood, I do love the coziness of it.

I love menswear

So naturally I am obsessed with Room 907.

It features as much fashion (like this highlight from Marc by Marc Jacobs) as it does music and books and videos and design (like the shot below, which has nothing to do with menswear and everything to do with awesomeness).

Nothing is more fun

…than my chalkboard wall. Can write on it, wipe it off and then do it all all over again. And boy, is it a hit at parties.

If you’re feeling very Martha Stewart-y you can make your own custom colours, but I got mine at Benjamin Moore.

The fruit bowl is from the Vancouver Art Gallery’s gift store, by the way. The teeth marks on it are from my cat Getty.
