Sidewalk Appeal
We spotted this spectacular set of steps in the Uniqlo store on 5th Avenue. Possibly the brightest steps in the whole of New York City? Certainly bright enough to draw us in off the street to take a closer look…
Blue Corded Loft
Proof that the simplest of strips can complete any room. We have seen a few of these corded bannisters, this is one of our favourites: the simple delicate uniform lines balance this stairway perfectly. We still prefer the strips to be on the stairs.
More Madness from New York
How did we miss this one? Another great example of people wearing foliage. Eyes as Big as Plates, by Riitta Ikonen and Karoline Hjorth
Woven Staircase
Elegantly weaving from edge to edge, balanced and subtly coloured using only black and white. Perfect.
Monochrome Marc Jacobs
We cant fail to be wooed by Marc Jacobs’ SS13 line – an collection full of monochromatic stripes. Bold, simple, stripes: we are very impressed.
Dreaming of Summer
With all the classic british weather we are getting at the moment we are drawn towards brights. This fantastic Mondrian-like image with bold orange and crisp yellow is the kind of bright we’d like to see.
A Load of Old Rope
Orly Genger hand knots reclaimed industrial rope together to create these grand sculptures. We really admire the precision that goes into making these works of art – These blocks of colour appear simple at first glance, yet are complex and intricate up close. The 1.4 million feet of rope(!) is currently installed in Madison Squrea ...
Exploding Colour
Celebrating spring Indian Holi festival of colour can be a messy business…While like the idea of all this paint flying around we’re not planning an impromptu paint bombing party of the studio just yet. Perhaps instead we’ll take to the great outdoors like Spanish Photographer Lola Guerrera. ‘Nebula Humilis’ by Lola Guerrera
A Lot Of Hot Air?
Turner prize winning conceptual artist Jeremy Deller is one of a handful of artists transforming Hong Kong’s West Kowloon district with inflatable art as part of the Mobile M+ exhibition.
