Modern Originals is released!/ NYTimes slideshow

What a way to introduce Modern Originals to the world! Today is the official first day that my new book is available and the NYTimes T Style ran a lovely article and slideshow about it on their website. Thank you Brooke Hodge and TStyle for such a wonderful launch! See the story here.
You can get your own copy of Modern Originals at your local bookstore or from Amazon.com.

A few more outtakes from Carina Seth Andersson's studio in Sweden. I really love the pared back aesthetic. Black, white and a couple shots of bright yellow. In the last shot are her glass baby rattles. Apparently she has a bit if a sense of humour as well.
Happy Christmas.

I'm so happy my new NYT People Watching has finally posted! There was a bit of a delay with all the holiday and Design Miami coverage. But I think it is completely worth it because it is posting on 12.12.12!
: D
Without further ado, meet Carina Seth Andersson!

Outtakes today from my NYT People Watching post on Julia Kalthoff of Wetterlings Swedish Axe Works in Sweden. Editing is so heartbreaking sometimes. Glad I can share more images with you all here. I posted the second image before, but it is seriously my favorite image from the entire day. It may be one of my all time favorite pictures...

OK...I cannot say much about this picture except that I am totally in love with it! I have been editing and writing my next NYT People Watching post and frankly it is frustrating. Can I do it in two parts? There are SO MANY images! I know...a good problem to have, but still. This is one of my favorites and there is no way it is going to make the cut. But isn't it a beauty? I used to play with one of those zylophone things when I was little...I can still hear the sound it makes in my head. A new People Watching so so soon!

Just working on the next NYT People Watching post and I realized I hadn't posted this one from Janet Hankinson. I've been staring at the shadows on the umbrella for awhile. So pretty...

Lots of outtakes from my NYT People Watching post on Max Lamb. This first one is one of my favorites, and Max's too as I recall. I love his collection of Richard Batterham jugs just standing there like little soldiers.
See more on Max here.

barn raising/jesse schlesinger

Scene from a barn raising. It was pretty inspiring watching this structure go up. Jesse Schlesinger from my NYT People Watching post and here is at the top of the ladder and was pivotal in the whole project. I hope to share more on this soon.
