Spain!!!

My bags are packed and we are now about an hour away from jumping on a plane due south...to beautiful Spain.

It will be my first time there so I am excited to explore.

Stay tuned...

Daydreaming...

Spain is on the brain today...

Not long now until I hit the beautiful streets of Barcelona!

Based Upon

I am currently sourcing artwork and am in search for something unique!

This is such a hard task because I'm not buying the art for myself, or for a client but for the 'unseen customer' so I need to ensure that the style of each piece reflects the demographic of people who shop in the store.

During my search I have stumbled across this pretty impressive company called 'Based Upon'. It is made up of a group of artists who produce large scale artworks and hand applied surfaces as well as sculptural furiture.

I am absolutely mesmerised by this piece called 'water' - a snapshot of ones observation from the air.

And how beautiful are these nature inspired surfaces...

To see some more of their amazing installations check out their blog - www.baseduponablog.co.uk

Abbey Rd

I just had to share my Abbey Rd experience with you all...

(writing 'all you need is love' at the studio entrance)

For me, it was such a surreal experience to be at a place where so many amazing artists have colaborated and recorded.

I know we all associate Abbey Rd Studios with the Beatles, but another favourite band of mine have also recorded there...The Killers.

And here is my favourite live performance from Abbey Rd Studios...

Kurt Geiger Notting Hill

Kurt Geiger Notting Hill is almost here! Just walked past their new location on the corner of Portobello Rd and it's looking pretty amazing.

Lots of ironwork and mirrored surfaces have been chosen as the backdrop for their gorgeous range of shoes!
