The ABCs of Architecture

Clever + dare I say cute. If you're like me, you'll find yourself hitting that pause button over and over.

Doing good. Design.

Every once in awhile I'll pop on to tumblr for a little visual inspiration. One of my favorite tumblrs, TypeToy,  is the visually inspiring collection of images by designer, Aaron Eiland.

Legends of La Cienega 2013

I just wanted to remind you all, or urge anyone considering, to join me at this year's Legends of La Cienega. For three days, May 8-10, stars of design, fashion, architecture and art will descend upon La Cienega Design Quarter (LCDQ) for the fifth-annual LEGENDS of La Cienega, which is themed Time Capsule: The Past, Present and Future of Design.

Windows of the 44 participating design shops and galleries that line the streets of the LCDQ will be imaginatively transformed by some of the nation’s most creative designers to reflect the Time Capsule theme. If anything, this is a must see as it is free to the public.

 Thursday Morning, 8:30-10:00, I'll be joined by two other bloggers, Kelly Lee of Kelly Golightly, and Alissa Swedlow of The Goods Design at Stanton Court (765 North La Cienega) where we'll be discussing all things blogging. Please join us, and come say hello, I'd love to meet you in person!

If you're interested in the other events, Editor at Large did a really nice and comprehensive line up of the events for the 3 days. Check it out here.

Also.....

Legends VIP passes are on sale here. Proceeds from the sale of the VIP passes go to Habitat for Humanity. Last year about $40,000 was raised for Habitat for Humanity from the sale of the VIP passes and the post-Legends One Kings Lane sale.
