Lost in the Loud Silence

I'm obsessed with this photo series Lost in the Loud Silence by photographer, and super cool friend of mine, Naomi White. The styling, color, and unexpected touches in each photo really help to tell the story of this woman as she comes undone. Seriously, some of these shots are mesmerizing.

I highly recommend you visit her site to see them all - as well as past (and equally incredible) work.

Fantastic Naomi! And thanks to Mike Beach for sharing - 

Not Another Bill

Obsessed with this

Tell me this is not the most amazing, colorful living/dining room ever!? Bri Emery, from DESIGN LOVE FEST, recently posted pictures of her room makeover and (as you can see) it did not disappoint.

I can honestly say I would LOVE to ransack her place and get my hands on some of these items but that would just be wrong - so I won't. That furniture! The art! Those plants!!

The natural light in this space is perfect for all the greenery. Me and Mike (mostly Mike) have tried for two years to keep our plants alive. Unfortunately, it's been a losing battle due to the lack of sunlight in our North-facing apartment. They just will not live... it's a damn shame.

Anyway, I hope you're as interested/impressed as I am - and be sure to check out Bri's blog post to see more images and the lowdown on what she got and from where.

Let's Travel Somewhere

I often have a plaguing feeling that I will never get to travel and see as much of the world as I'd like in my lifetime. So, any project that helps support others to get out and go is cool in my book. Designer Ines Gamler created this set of posters to promote the collaborative photo project - Let's Travel Somewhere.
