Kvadrat Tile Wall

by rosedeniz September 2, 2008 design

Tweet Before:Kvadrat, which I write about below, has an interactive program to create your own tile wall. This might come in handy while we try to choose tiles for the entry way, kitchen, and bathroom. Or, I’ll just dream up cominations that are not possible for our 110m2 apartment. I love how the tri-color tiles […]

The Skirt

Texas Detritus

by rosedeniz August 21, 2008 art

Tweet I think these photos my cousin Barbara took while in Texas of things swept up by Hurricane Dolly are interesting and eerie; a beach front anthropological catalog of human detritus.* I know there is a Japanese photographer who took these amazing photos of beaches years after Hiroshima, and if I could remember his name, […]

Listography

by rosedeniz August 20, 2008 design

Tweet I discovered Listography today. Totally amazing. Which gives me an opportunity to tell a story. The first lists I ever loved were written by my mother. I found a small, spiral notebook with her handwritten domestic lists: what to buy at the store, who to buy presents for, plants to water, tasks to do […]
