Next time you’re in Paris, make sure to visit beautiful shop Astier de Villatte – if not for the products (which are beautiful) then for the packaging (equally beautiful) ….

Pouf please!

We would love to go see “Naked Shapes” at Doismaine de Boisbuchet. The exhibition shows an extensive collection of “anonymous” cooking utensils, household appliances, tools and toys produced in Japan from 1910-1960 during the modernization -and following second world war. Beautifully conceived and organized by curator Ayako Kamozawa. Read and see more here.

Boy, would we like to be in London this coming friday when the Open City Festival screens last year’s  film about German printer & publisher Gerhard Steidl How to make a book with Steidl … he is truly a fascinating man and we admire him and his passion a lot … “Fuck the mid tones” … haha!
