howe have i missed you





i was browsing through a new blog i just found (the new victorian ruralist), and he hits the nail on the head all the time and keeps me thinking about design elements and craftsmanship.

anywho...he recently posted images from a london retailer named howe, and boy oh boy did this ignite the fundamental touchstone of my design aspiration. his ability to focus and keep is simple makes me want to gather all my friends who are looking for special pieces for their homes, get tickets for tomorrow morning, and head over the pond to london to pay a visit.

i could post all his images and create a year of blogs from his objects. now that would be lazy. for now just 2 images that make me run in circles.

24 corners and perfect gray-
i feel like the last kid to hear someone is handing out Twinkies and ding dongs and by the time i get to the place they are handing them out all that is left is the content smiles and empty wrappers.
i'm glad we found each other to appreciate the simple pleasures.
