mostly lighting as favorites this year @ ICFF

but there were also some surprisingly lovely new additions and of course old faves.

Richard Watson

Wallplates from Upwell

Pendants from Token

Everything @ Søren Rose Studio (for De La Spada) looks super – especially this

Egg Collective was so fresh and lovely (thank you Brooklyn). Their cards were also done perfectly

the Bensen Morgan couch caught my eye

Lindsay Adelman‘s pop-up workshop was fun — and the new porcelain shade is incredibly beautiful. Reminds me a little of Ken Gangbar’s work

and finally Studio Dunn had a very smart looking little collection this year — with SUCH a well done letterpressed takeaway I want to keep it forever. The Narragansett Bowls were my favorite.

1. Stickbulb [the best thing at the show this year in my opinion]

2. Apparatus  – [Vanity Sconce]

3. Roll and Hill - [Rudi]

these scans last week in a lovely email from my once instructor, now friend.

Stephanie Bower

is an architect, illustrator and incredible inspiration.

I’m especially enamored with the work because it truly is a dying art.

[This work is from a couple of sketchbooks she filled on trips to Spain and India last fall - so beautiful!]

When did my sketchbook die?

Stupid iPhone.

a few pics of the dreamy

Castel del Monte

in

Andria, Apulio

They say it’s an octagon because Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II wanted it to be a hybrid of heaven (circle) and earth (square)
