Modernist interior in one of the upstairs rooms; early 1930s, I think. The crinkle-cut cantilevered stair is a real treat. See introductory notes here.
With their characteristic architecture, brothers Mogens and Flemming
Lassen spearheaded the movement to bring Functionalism to Denmark. As
a tribute to the brothers’ work, Danish artist Kristina Dam has created four
beautiful illustrations. Because iconic architecture deserves to be seen.

Funkisbil. Gustaf L.M Ericssons Venus-Volvo.
Från Idrottsbladet 23 november 1933 hämtas: "Det här är Sveriges just nu mest omtalade bil, nämligen Gustaf L.M.-Ericssons Volvo, med dess hos Nordbergs byggda strömlinjekaross. Vagnen är byggd på ett standard chassie, men dess yttre avviker från allt som förut skådats i det här landet och även dess inre skiljer sig från allt som förut åstadkommits i karosseribyggnadsbranschen."

I went to the dentist this morning and she showed me how to brush my teeth because she thinks that I’m not doing it properly. How humiliating…
* Dress from Barkins at DFO in Melbourne
* Tights from Barkins at DFO in Canberra
* Shoes from Funkis
* Brooch from a boutique in Thredbo
* Earrings by Bouvier from Bijoux
* Men’s watch from Fossil
I’m off to have lunch with a friend, spend the afternoon crafting, then to the gym to test out my new and hideous sports bra and then off to visit the Smaggles. Pleasant day…
Love Lady Smaggle

Hotel Torni (to the left) was the first "skyscraper" in Helsinki. It was designed by architects Jung & Jung in 1928 in Functionalistic style. More of the fascinating history of this beautiful building:
Former Aarhus Municipal Library (later converted to Book1 hostel), Denmark. Architecture: Alfred Mogensen and Harald Salling-Mortensen, 1934
Onlangs werd artiest en graphic designer Niels 'Shoe' Meulman, initiator van Calligraffiti en eigenaar van de Unruly Gallery, door Converse uitgenodigd voor de Beijing Design Week. Converse organiseert een 'Street level typography exhibition' waarvoor hij gevraagd was.

This house was built in the early 1860s as Sunnyside, and it stood at the head of what was to become the drive leading to the Winter Gardens, but which was then known as Cranborne Gardens
It became the Maple Tree Restaurant before being demolished c1964, and was replaced by the present building, home to Klute nightclub, Strada Italian restaurant, Funki Sushi and others over the years.
:::::::::::: The ReMix
Christmas is a special holiday. I love to receive "homemade" gifts. I love to give them. This year was no different.
I'm slowly redecorating my fiancee' home office. My first project, I hoped to increase the office's functionality. Furthermore, I'd hoped give the room a funki, sexy and unique focal point.
The goal was to build two push pin panels to hold papers, calendars and receipts. Additionally, a dry erase board was added so she could jot down notes and reminders.
In keeping with our mission, every major component was purchased local thrift stores.
The project was an overwhelming success.
