I was trying not to do the typical gender, specific baby shower invite with baby powder blues for a boy and light pinks for a girl. Plus, this shower was co-ed, and I wanted it to appeal to everyone.
In this first shower, I went with a colorful palette that leaned to be more feminine with the hot magenta hue since my friend was having a baby girl. And for her custom invite, I used this fun baby rhyme that we once heard as children – (insert a girl's name) and (insert a boy's name) sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G, First comes love , Then comes marriage, Then comes (insert a girl's name) with a baby carriage. Obviously, I modified the rhyme to be more fitting for the invite.

Colors: Green, Gold, Black + White
Here are some of her key descriptor words from my client before I created this moodboard: elegant, antique, history, cream and black as the main colors. Of course, I had to throw some color in there and suggested an emerald green. It just felt right for the mood she was going for, and it will add that modern feel to the overall look. Also, I want her wedding to have a little more edge and playful twist to the European, Victorian era that she seeks.
Final color palette: an off-white hue, antiqued gold, emerald green and black.
The bold black & white classic hues are accented with green and touches of vintage gold. The Victorian flair is brought in with the traditional cameos that I plan to customize to her profile silhouette and her fiance's, too. And I felt the need to add antiqued gold & black frames in various sizes to bring out that sense of history. Whether the table numbers are framed, or a cluster of portraits of the bride, groom and old family photos are displayed somewhere in the reception venue. There are soo many fun applications that they can be used for; especially for photography.
When I say I want to the give the bride "a little more edge" to her wedding day, I mean to modernize it from where she wants which may come off a bit dated based on her original key words. And I plan on doing it with a custom, green pattern with a tailored European feel, and I would like to contrast it with another graphic pattern – black & white stripes. However, these patterns won't exist everywhere in the decor; it will be used thoughtfully & selectively throughout her wedding and reception. It's those extra little accents that will give it that personal, tailored, classic appeal with a twist to the European Era.
Invitation design: custom black cameo portraits, incorporate traditional scroll flourish designs, custom green pattern on thick, uncoated paper, letterpress, and a black envelope with a personalized wax seal
Apparel/Accessories: bride in off-white, bridesmaids in black cocktail length dresses and accented in gold antiqued jewelry, the groom & groomsmen in black, or grey suits with black & white striped bow ties/or a tie
Floral selection: white anemones with their bold-dark center and white roses
Table decor/seating: a mix of black and antiqued vases with white florals, candlesticks and eclectic frames on black table linens, gold chiavari chairs, white plates with gold chargers
Guest favor boxes: black boxes accented with a green ribbon, and a sticker seal of the cameo portraits of the bride & groom

24 January 2015. The McAslan "Design Studio" at 451-453 High Road, N17 held an Open Event.
Martin Ball and Zena Brabazon went and were given some further information about this scheme. (Photo above by Martin.)
I've put the phrase "Design Studio" in quotes because it seems more accurate to see this space as a shop for publicising and "selling" the McAslan plans and services. So more like a Display Cabinet than a Studio.,
I should have realised this before now. The page on the McAslan website announcing the "Open Day" (actually an afternoon) included this:
One of the key objectives of the N17 Design Studio
is to provide a space to both showcase regeneration
activity and projects happening in Tottenham and to
provide community activities delivered by, and for,
the local community.
We’d like to invite you to attend our open day;
it is a chance to come and look round N17 Design
Studio, see the scale model of Tottenham and
meet the apprentices.
Tottenham Re-defined
Interestingly, the scale model is not of the whole of Tottenham but mainly its north and central eastern part. This seems to be the main focus for developers wanting to make a land grab for public housing owned by the local Council. Plus some "brownfield" sites. (Formerly commercial and industrial sites.)
The model centres on the High Road where the Tottenham riot took place. It dismays me when the local Council we elect to represent and defend our interests allow Tottenham, the place where we live, to be redefined by rioters and property developers. Although I think property developers, speculators and their political and business allies are likely to inflict far worse damage than the riot ever did..
Community Activities ?
The "community activities" most likely to result from this may be the protests of local residents. And forced expulsions of people from their homes.
Because many existing homes are likely to be demolished to make way for towers and blocks mainly for private sale at inflated prices to middle class buyers.
This is likely to be the type of "social cleansing" we've seen in other parts of London - especially in South and West London; and now underway in West Hendon (London Borough of Barnet. Please scroll down for the link.).
At one extreme, in parts of London this can involve sales to buyers - often living abroad - whose main interest in their property is owning a safe and lucrative investment. It seems unlikely they would consider the impact on families and individuals forced to move. Nor have much concern for the communities in the areas where their properties are sited.
Media reports suggest that in some of the most expensive areas of London, homes are not only being bought-up as speculative investment, but are sometimes left empty by the absentee buyers While this almost certainly will not apply in Tottenham, it is having a knock-on effect by driving up property values in central London areas and - in a ripple effect - displacing better-off buyers further out from the centre.

449 High Road, Tottenham
It's not * "A launderette as big as the Ritz?" And I don't see Stephen Frears and Hanif Kureishi dropping round to 449 High Road N17 any time soon.
Nor are the right-wing leaders of Haringey Council likely to hand out £181,548 public cash to refit this or other businesses on the High Road. As they generously did for John McAslan+Partners (JMP) and its so-called "Design Studio". In the photo it's the shuttered shop on the right - next door at number 451-453.
I wonder if the neighbours were invited to drinks and nibbles at McAslan's launch party on 20 November 2014.

To contrast with the the Autumn / Winter catalogue that utilised the colour black, white was used to add a light and airy feel to the Spring / Summer collection. This refined simplicity allows the product to take centre stage without having to compete with the model or her outfit.

Entrepreneurship courses like this one allow students to take an product from concept to reality, through group feedback and design development.
Nice looking 1959 Fairlane Fastback, not sure why they didn't do this one, the only reason I can think is the size of the rear side window. It shows two different styles to the rear window, maybe trying to shrink the window down, looks like the 1960 61 Starliner roof. Note all the other models showing some wild looking 1959 T-Birds especially the one next to the Fairlane.

I had a good friend come to me recently asking for ideas and how to pull several ideas and elements together for an October 10, 2010 wedding. It's quite a popular wedding date since the date exactly translates to 10/10/10. I am currently working on another wedding invitation for the same date.
Here were some mandatories for this particular mood board:
- the roman numeral "X" symbolic of 10/10/10
- nontraditional wedding, no formal church
- some incorporation of Irish traditions
- early afternoon wedding
- reception is a non-sit down (cocktails & hors d'oeuvres)
- some key descriptor words: edgy, modern & Irish influences
And here's what I was able to pull together and push the concept to be visually stronger. I took the roman symbol "X" representing 10/10/10 and merged it with a traditional Irish, Celtic design and created a very unique & bold icon along with a textile Celtic-like pattern that can be incorporated into the branding of their wedding day elements (e.g., wedding invitations, napkins and/or "X" drink menu).
In Irish culture, I just learned that the bride wears a baby blue colored wedding dress which I think is really pretty. However with the wedding & reception already being not-so traditional, I thought it would be fun to push the color palette further once I saw this stunning Laila silk chiffon strapless dress on Bluefly.com. And as soon as I saw this dress, it inspired the color palette for the rest of the wedding with deep blues, turquoise, light blue and the traditional Irish green. Since the reception is like a cocktail hour, I thought the short cocktail dresses for the bridesmaid would complement the bride's dress and be perfect for the festive evening.
Though this is a modern, nontraditional wedding, I still wanted to have some rustic, earthy elements to represent the Irish culture beyond the Celtic motif. A collection of small vintage and eclectic vases from glass to brass materials holding lovely, simplistic arrangements of white & green plants are a nice budget-friendly touch to a cocktail happy hour. Also, what is missing on this mood board that I forgot to add are chunky white pillar candle arrangements to bring warmth to this cool, October evening reception. And it's definitely not Irish unless there are few Guinness glasses with clovers in it.
