Val’s Valentines

I had the chance to meet up with Val the other week for tea to catch up and pick up more cards for the year. It was good timing as I got to learn of her line of Valentine's cards (and new photoshoot!) for V-Day - a day that's coming oh-too soon. //Read More

Christine + Derrick

A couple years ago, I had the pleasure of designing all of Christine's wedding collateral. It was an honour that she trusted me to look after one of the most important pieces of stationery in her life. From invites to thank you cards and everything in between, it was a total labour of love. //Read More

Feltron 2009

A few years ago, I had compiled a list of "Top 5s" from close friends. Top 5 restaurants, Top 5 movies, Top 5 quotes. It was whatever they wanted to list as long as it happened that year.

Well it seems we are amongst the many others who have also caught on to this frozen yogurt craze. New chains around the world are popping up with colourful personalities that build their attraction beyond taste. //Read More

Laptop Lovely

I used to work with the buying team for laptops at a major electronics retailer. It's unbelievable as to how far laptop prices have come down since then, and how much more fun they now are with top notch designers getting into the business of skins... //Read More

Clean Design

Call me nuts, but I don't mind cleaning the bathroom. But if you live in a condo like myself, you probably find yourself spacially challenged. I thought about going with a blue theme in my bathroom to blend the Clorox label in with the decor, but there's no denying it. The bleach sits with its scrubby friends behind the toilet glaringly aweful. Well maybe today, that's about to change... //Read More
