Pattern Pulp

Color: Black & White




The walls of my apartment are painted the perfect shade of gray. Perfect, that is, until I decided I prefer separate strains of black and white in combination with each other. There’s something so calming about airy, white walls with strong, graphic accents of black. From the geometric himmeli ornaments to the killer Olle Eksell poster, these additions would be a pretty good substitute to repainting my entire place.

Holiday Gift Guide for Co-Workers




Before you pack your bags, dust off that keyboard and eat the leftover chocolate on the conference room table, consider getting something thoughtful for your in-office family. Your co-workers see you at your best and worst, through the break-ups, hang-overs and 70 hour pitch weeks. Let them know you care.

Holiday Gift Guide for Parents




Here’s hoping this holiday season’s a seamless balance of tradition, family, friends and special treats. For all of you last minute multi-taskers (ahem…), this week will be devoted to holiday gift guides. I’ll be taking off on a 10 day trip to Asia- Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo (!) early tomorrow morning, and in lieu of regular scheduled programming, you’ll be getting gift guides all week. Enjoy!
