2014 LARGE CALENDAR 3 HEL 2014 CALENDAR 1 COLOUR 2014 CALENDAR 1

…Hello 2014! We all say where has the year gone but seriously…where has it gone!?

I always remember my lovely Grandmother, who passed away a year ago, saying to me when I was about six years old that it only seemed five minutes since something had happened a year before. I questioned how a year could be five minutes long and her reply was “You’ll understand when your older”.

So a new year means a new calendar and I have three designs available in my Etsy shop.

All are available in A3 and 50 x 70 cm poster size. If you would like a different size or colour combination then contact me on Etsy and I’ll see what I can do for you.

…the weekends that is. They go far too quickly but at least there’s always another one to look forward to.

I made the colourful geometric shapes as Christmas decorations but they now add a splash of much needed colour to my office in a very grey january.

I bought the perpetual calendar on my last trip to New York from CB2. I can’t see them on their website which is a real shame if they don’t stock them anymore. They do deliver to the UK but they really should open some stores over here.

Lastly, just look at that cheeky little face of my Kay Bojesen monkey, I love him. A friend visited Copenhagen before Christmas and had one (or two) on her shopping list, when she asked if I wanted her to pick one up for me I just couldn’t resist. They are available at Skandium in the UK.

Happy Monday and have a great week all.


..whilst watching a recent episode of Mad Men (loving the new offices BTW!) I suddenly shouted to David (he was lounging on the sofa next to me) that there was a Helvetica poster in the background. I was ridiculously excited and David tried his best to look and sound interested.

Well Swiss Dots has produced a limited edition screenprint inspired by a 1960’s promotional poster for the film “Helvetica“. It is screenprinted by hand on archival 300gsm paper, A2 size in a numbered edition of 100 copies and each one is signed by the director Gary Hustwit. They are available to order here while stocks last at $150. I am so tempted…

It’s a t-shirt, it has Helvetica on it and I want one. Simple as that. Available at DADADA
