Photo Series from In The Make
We're are naturally always on the hunt for makers, and In The Make have them stockpiled, so once again I've returned to their door this morning to raid a little photography. Last time around we highlighted their studio visit to sculptor Mari Andrew, which if you didn't catch a glimpse of was like a
Plant Imagery by Qusamura
Plant pictures and imagery featuring greenery puts me in quite a trance, lately I've been excited by the mixture of vessels combined with living things such as a cactus or a bonsai. I actually own a bonsai myself and it takes center stage on a windowsill in my house, nurturing it is a very rewarding
Quietus: a documentary
We find ourselves coming across pottery and ceramics each and every day now, it’s intertwined in to both our work and free time. As a few of you may have noticed in our sidebar and on the front of the shop we are in fact beginning to sell a few pieces here and there. What we don’t encounter too
Iconic Images Explores Namibia
Admittedly this is somewhat of a curve ball, but I like to think we pride ourselves on keeping a diverse mix of content to keep you all inspired. So with this in mind we're leaning quite a lot towards photography with this film following the company of Denis Glennon, who runs a series of safari tour
Lennon’s Poster by Peter Dean
I like creative people because they go that extra mile, even if it makes them look a little obsessed and, dare I say it, crazy. It doesn't matter, it's being created and that's it, which is exactly the kind of attitude that pushes the boundaries of what we conceive possible. I love this idea that th
Short Film on Sculptor Dimpy Menon
We are lucky that each day we get the opportunity to come across so many diverse and exciting creatives, everyone has their own story to tell and a fresh perspective to share with the world. I'd like to introduce you all to a sculptor today who's progressive persona really struck a chord with me, he
Place of Hope, The Kasama Community and the Great Ordeal
When me and Daniel decide to showcase videos on the blog we're often wary of the length, as we know many people can get distracted when watching long pieces. Today I'm going to throw this rule out of the window as I point you towards a piece titled 'Place of Hope, The Kasama Community and the Great
Adam Currie Photographs the Barbican
One of the things I love about what we do here is the connections we make, and the diversity that this presents. Some days we strive to preserve the legacy that an individual has left behind, others feature creatives in their prime, and today we highlight the handiwork of someone just starting out a
Olga Bennet Photographs Kim Mckechnie’s Studio
Another great week begins and with it I thought we'd make a return trip to view the progressive portfolio of Australian photographer Olga Bennet. As many will hopefully know Olga is someone who's work we have admired here in the past and it's been brilliant to watch her talents flourish and mature o
Mies, Aalto and Le Corbusier Interiors Photographed by Mary Gaudin
New Zealand born photographer Mary Gaudin has been impressing me lately with a selection of photography over on her portfolio website, particularly a section of it which documents a variety of architects homes and builds. Three of my favourites feature here, Alvar Aalto, his home and and office in H
Furniture Designer: Taylor Donsker
Believe me when I say we've seen a lot of craftsmen, creatives, designers and makers over the years and heard many, many stories. Some of these are regularly repeated and you very quickly develop a nose for who is regurgitating the same message and those with genuine drive and passion to create some
Short Film on Brooklyn Glass
I'm afraid there's somewhat of an emphasis on the "short" element of this film today but it's a project that resonated with me somewhat earlier so I felt it was worthwhile showcasing despite the fact. I'd like it to be a little longer and I'm sure after watching you will too, but it is what it is, a
