Stuart Gibson
16th January 2012
I always admire surf photographers and Tasmanian photographer Stuart Gibson is no exception. Waves are powerful and beautiful things.
(These are also making me wish I was on the beach. Cape Town is 32 degrees today and rising…)
CommentCountry Road
5th January 2012
I love Australian label Country Road. I used to have one of their bags when I was 7!
The best thing is that they’re still around, they still make beautiful products and they also have stores in Cape Town.
This Slub Weave Tote would be perfect for a beachy weekend getaway.
Lady of the Dead
13th December 2011
Love this branding for an Australian Mexican Salsa company, Lady of the Dead. My favourite favourite skeletons.
Designed by Emma Brownson (an Aussie graphic designer no less!) I think it’s a cool take on Dia de los Muertos. The best thing though? After you finish munching your way through a jar of Salsa Verde, rinse it out and you’ve got yourself a fun backyard lantern.

Cartoloji
1st December 2011
These maps by Cartoloji are interesting. I thought they looked a lot like camouflage. Did you guess that was Australia at the top and South Africa on the bottom?
They’re available in a wide range of countries, colours, sizes and 10% of each sale goes to the country that was bought through GlobalGiving.

Beached House
31st August 2011
This is my kind of beach house! Built by BKK architects and hidden somewhere on the Australian coast, they say that “Beached House continues BKK Architects interest in the curation of the domestic as a sequence of unfolding spaces that deny, and then release views.” Nice.

Vogue Australia
3rd August 2011
How nice to see Robyn Lawley grace the pages of Australian Vogue.
She’s the first plus size model in 52 years to appear in the magazine – although apparently size wasn’t factored into the decision to cast her. It was simply because she’s beautiful.
Skulls & Bones
3rd September 2010
I ♥ skulls. I think it’s a result of when we were in Mexico. Next week I think I’ll have a week of skulls…
This beautiful shot is by photographer Jay Harrison. The one underneath is a snap I took at Sculptures By The Sea in Bondi last year as well. Maybe I should’ve gone back at sunset…
That’s Cool But Can You Make It More Sh*t?
29th July 2010
I’ve been listening to LCD Soundsystem a lot lately. I wish I was in Sydney again because I’d go and see their retrospective with DFA Records. They’ve got all kinds of weird and wonderful artwork from albums, scribbles on napkins, photos and sketches…
“That’s Cool But Can You Make It More Sh*t?” is on until August 2nd in Sydney, then moves to NY and London.
Like Minded Studio
30th June 2010
This poster by Like Minded Studio recently caught my eye and reminded me that I want to do some more typographic based work.
Something for my long list of things to do…
