Cartolina Cards

As a collector of Japanese art I really like Cartolina's card collection, in particular 'The Great Wave Off Kanagawa' inspired design below. These exotic collage style cards are printed on recycled paper with vegetable inks - it's great news to see the collection is now stocked in Harvey Nichols and Selfridges in the UK.

Elephant Parade

As a massive elephant lover I am excited to see father and son Mike and Marc Spits enterprise Elephant Family - a London based charity with a passion to save endangered Asian elephants. As part of their fundraising and awareness drive to save the Asian elephant from extinction in the wild, they have created the London Elephant Parade. Here, 250 fibreglass elephants decorated by famous artists and designers are exhibited in and around London before being auctioned online. Please support this good cause by signing their online petition.

Marie Claire Idees

I once subscribed to France's craft magazine Marie Claire Idees, but with the difficulty of getting a UK subscription combined with no renewal notice - my subscription simply lapsed. I came across this gorgeous sleeping dog image from the current edition - it reminded me that I really do need to take up that subscription again. Now to find the UK distributor again...

Carnovsky RGB Wallpaper

I found Carnovsky's RGB wallpaper at Creative Review this week. Presented at Milan Design Week, Carnovsky's unique and innovative wallpaper reacts to coloured lighting revealing a different image when either a red, blue or green lighting is shone onto the paper. My favourite is the Animal Kingdom below. Amazing!
