Feeling Funky?

Wallpaper has come back in a big way. You can find clever examples of how people use it in their homes all over the Internet and on cable tv shows. I have tried several times to convince my husband how fabulous and edgy our home would be if we could incorporate some of these techniques. Unfortunately he just can't get past how feminine a lot of the styles appear. In my opinion, this may not be altogether accurate, but I have decided to compromise.

I have been searching for masculine styled wallpaper and came upon this company called Wallpaper from the 70's. They offer several different styles, but the Abstract group seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. They are located in Germany and ship internationally.


Hopefully I'll be able to persuade him to try one of these wonderful patterns!

9/11 Memorial

Landor has created a new logo for the 9/11 memorial. The simplistic and subdued design allow the events of 9/11 to speak for themselves. It also represent the strength and solidarity of all those affected.
