This just in from Clic Gallery..."Clic Gallery East Hampton is proud to present the summer show CHRISTOPHER MAKOS POLAROIDS featuring original SX-70 Polaroids shot in the 70s and 80s. Christopher Makos was a seminal figure in the downtown art scene as well as a close friend and collaborator with Andy Warhol, and these are his revealing snapshots of friends and lovers, shot at parties at Studio 54 and during lazy days out in the Hamptons."
I was in the Brown Jordan showroom the other day and spotted the Sol y Luna High Back Barstool, an adaptation of Dan Johnson’s Gazelle Collection from 1954. What a beautiful chair he designed! I went looking and found these originals on 1st Dibs.
I can see this coffee table in this house. Can't you?
I'm pretty intrigued by the fact that artist Elizabeth Patterson created these "rainscape drawings" with color pencil and graphite. Whoa.
I do like a simple and innovative design. And well, this sure is both. Magica Chair by Davide Conti.
Oh, thanks style files for this one! Cavo Tagoo on Mykonos, Greece just opened in May of this year. Built into a cliffside and designed with "contemporary minimalist island aesthetic while remaining true to the traditional character and architecture of the Cycladic Islands". nice.

I have T. Anthony luggage now and I have to admit I'm kinda over it. I've had to replace a pull and the teeth on the zipper are already jammed and it's not even that old. I think I'm going for these next. I love the design.
I found another design book to add to my library, "Simply Scandinavian" written by Sara Norrman. The 20 homes featured showcase various styles using modern design classics mixed with vintage and antiques pieces all in light and airy spaces. The interiors highlight the use of natural materials which is a trait of the " Scandi " style, all done in an understated elegance.
I do have a thing for simple Black and White branding and product design (maybe you could already tell).
I love the happy, sunny, retro vibe of this series of works from Dutch artist, Sebastiaan Bremer where he applies paints and inks to photographs.
Still feeling kinda Frenchy. I posted this ages ago on my Facebook page and thought of it once again this week. It's a pretty cool 5 year time lapse video with animation of Serge Gainsbourg's home in Paris and the graffiti that covers it.
Ooh la la, I think I might just go and bring the whole fam. What a lovely time of year to visit Paris.
A selection of some really great Arts and Architecture magazine covers.
