It's Pretty easy to romantize the studio life of an artist! The painting above by Amy Feldman is rad. AMAZING!  And if I must, I will vice versa it with inspired shapes and colors of what I imagine of her studio, based on the painting. Yep, I'm really twisting this one...

<![CDATA[Vice Versa: Ferm Living + Barn House]]> Thu, 05 Apr 2012 15:06:26 +0000

A very edgy barn-ish home with a bright organge-y door Vice Versa'd with Ferm Living's dishes, with an angular pattern. Truly one and the same, no?

I thought so! Which made me smile. Check out more of Ferm Living's dishes - very festive!

<![CDATA[Vice Versa: Perfectly Styled Spring]]> Tue, 20 Mar 2012 14:49:31 +0000

Vanessa Colyer Tay wins the gold star! This room, which she styled is stunning. I'm crazed by the stripes & flattening of the elements on the wall as well as the furniture & objects. Oh, perfection.

And that is why it's my vice/versa subject of the day.  The style of Vanessa Colyer Tay is emergent & effervescent. I cannot resist but to only stare at the room above. How about you?!

Vice/Versa'd 5:
1. Bend Ethel Chair
2. Harry Allen My Brother's Frame
3. MakeLike Succulent Poster
4. Design House Stockholm Bjork Stool
5. Ferm Living Large Pinboard

<![CDATA[Vice Versa // Icy Hot Drinks In The Dark..?]]> Fri, 10 Feb 2012 14:22:41 +0000

I love this painting by Leanne Shapton. It reminds me of a dark den or library that you'd find in a big mid-centruy house. Tidy yet dusty and slightly cold. And always a fully stocked bar cart.  Join me!

1. Design House Stockholm Block Lamp [looks like a block of ice!]
2. Erik Bagger Thermos
3. Carl Mertens Pitu Caipirinha Set
4. Erik Bagger Low & High Ball Glasses
5. Carl Mertens Oyster Glove [Seems fitting. Ice cold oysters....]

<![CDATA[vice versa // dreams & diamonds]]> Thu, 03 Nov 2011 10:47:50 +0000

Have you ever started to dream the moment you fall asleep to then instantly realize that you're dreaming about something totally off-the-wall? You then wake up and think: ah! what?! weird! Those few seconds of dreamland are much too quirky, irrational and foggy to ever remember. This experience reminds me of the luminous greys and bright, dimensional diamonds in the  painting above, which I adore. This painting could be vice-versa'd with Objects 1-4, right?

Art:
Untitled Diamonds & Birds by Miranda Sckoczek

Objects:
1. Topan Pendant Light by &Tradition
2. Lynx by Ross Menuez
3. Cubes on Strings by Ferm Living
4. Spicy Knives by Legnoart

<![CDATA[vice versa // flocks & lines]]> Tue, 18 Oct 2011 14:41:40 +0000

I really do not encourage anyone to match their art to their decor. It is generally a bad idea to be so literal!

But, art always calls to mind a particular color, shape or feeling -- Hot pink, lines & floating -- that is easily associated with objects that are familiar.  And knowing the black dots in the piece above are not dots, but birds (!) allows you to consider the lines as one shape.... oh, the movement! So cool.

Art: Hadley Starlings (Flock #9) by Catherine Ulitsky.

<![CDATA[Vice Versa \\ drips & drinks]]> Thu, 06 Oct 2011 09:37:17 +0000

I'm a sucker for good drip-marks in a painting. Always have been, always will.
I LOVE this painting by Caroline Wright. Gorgeous drip-marks!
And the  Vanilla, Pear & Vodka bev by Two Tarts (recipe!).... is perfect.

Very 'early Autumn-ish.

And to accessorize:
1. Legnoart Sombrero Buffet Party Dish
2. Design House Stockholm Timo Glass
3. Brendan Ravenhill Bottle Opener
4. Vanilla Bean Dry Soda
