I want this...

Designed by RD Silver it's called"Turnstyle" and even includes a speaker in its minimalist-ness.  You buy for me?

My Modern Dogs

I know that people know that I have a few dogs in my life and I know that those that know, also know I how adore my littles.  Well...they've been selected as contestants in the Modernica "Pets on Furniture" competition.  Have a look at the site when you get a chance.  There are some cool pieces in the pics and along with the main site it's generally a good spot to check every once in a few.  I've had a thing for that Case Study Alpine Bed for a while now.  I think that it's the visual similarity to the Eames LCW (a silhouette I've always found appealing) that gets me.  Anywho, root around over there and while you're clicking stuff, don't forget to vote for the clan (They're #6 for those that don't know).

"(Not So) New Shoes" sculptures by Gabriel Dishaw

So I went to the preview last night at St. Alfred and I must say, Gabriel's stuff is awesome!
It's kind of "future steampunk" and because of the wonderful recycled element it takes on a found art / outsider element though the idea is special and unique.  The construction, the use of materials, the integration of the kind of quirks which real sneaker heads will truly appreciate is genius.  Not to mention that after meeting him, I find him to be a lovely bloke.

As the proud owner of a pair of "Pentium Blazers" I am already a convert and yes, I've drunk the Kool-aid.


Check it out if you happen to be in town.  Jordan, the gallery owner is a pretty rad dude.  Homer, the gallery dog is a pretty rad dog and honestly, it'd make you a much better person because it's pretty cool...
