...its not quicker, but at least we have to agree the direct route!

... not logs then? Still, ‘Melonman’ would be rather comical. Interesting superhero look perhaps…

My way or the highway

The idea of strolling down Lovelock Way, or better still Lovelock Path, would amuse me greatly…

Topping Elle Deco’s wish list (almost)

... well it’s actually number two but who’s counting. Still, it’s enough of a reason to write this – yippee cayoo cayay – thanks for that Pa. x

Excited over an app?

Elite on the Iphone?

That will make my trip on the number 17 a lot more fun. No more loading in via tape!

Hm Mmmmmmm

The most perfect studio lunch today – a delicious piece of squidgy Mont D’Or cheese (from Budgens no less!) on lovely yeasty Scandinavian black bread. Followed by a cup of tea…. all about small pleasures this afternoon. Sun’s shining too!

I’m imagining the things one could do with “Special paper and card”....

Please come and say hello.

Entrance fee includes admission to the nearby ShowStudio exhibition, but not the ice rink (sorry).

Spotted a flock of fat wood pigeons feasting on berries outside Kentish Town Fire Station. Was a very red and blue moment.

Only 18 sleeps until….

.... we can open the studio advent calendar. Wah hey. And it’s a Haribo one par excellence. Woo hoo.

Gosh….
We just got a big old mention in I.D Magazine about our clock, that’s International Design Magazine of course, not the iconic British style rag. I’m all for a bit of Stateside mentioning, makes a wet Tuesday morning that wee bit better…. roll on Chicago/NY/LA sales.

If you want to enter the sweepstake to win a blue one, look here.
If you’d just like to buy one (oh go on) you can do so here.

* One Night in November *

We’re taking part in a small designer/maker sale on 26 November.
There will be plenty of great gifts, fancy stocking fillers, and other pieces of lovely loot on sale.
I’ll be spending the next 3 weeks making tree decorations - come get ‘em while they’re still edible!

Committment non-issue

2009-10-04T11:17:15Z

We’ve signed up to 10:10.
Now we’ve just got to persuade the rest of the building to do so too and we’ll be getting somewhere.

We’re committing to: ride our bikes throughout the whole winter; to wear thermals instead of always resorting to the heater;
to change our courier firm to Zero; to help our clients make better use of design in media other than print;
to assess how we can do better through our work with suppliers; and by putting a great big reminder to Reduce on the studio to-do list every week.
