Design Lover: Peter Marigold Pied de Biche
British designer and Central St. Martins honours graduate Peter Marigold has taken found British industrial Dexion steel shelving, cut it and re-welded it into a piece I want in my home - the Pied de Biche (Doe Foot). The piece was originally designed for Libby Sellers Gallery in 2008 but maybe if we ask nicely he'll produce a few for market.
Marigold currently lives and works in London with his partner, Orly Orbach, and their giant snail, Marvin.
His recent work, the Palindrome Series, is available online at Moss Gallery.

because you're simply mahvelous
Those of you that follow my blog - and might I mention you're mahvelous - may know I'm going through a mood and am clearing out basically everything I own. I've received some wonderful encouragement from you and I thank you - Harbourmaster, Emily and those that emailed.
I mentioned in a recent comment that I was going to sell my entire vintage collection. Well, because you're so mahvelous I've decided to save some and offer it up to you through online contests/giveaways (sorry don't know the proper marketing jargon) throughout the rest of the year.
I'm moving this week so keep your eyes posted I may have time to upload one in the next few days.
Thank you again for your encouragement.

9 Top Credenzas
You may remember me mentioning that we've lost about 95% of our furniture this month.
The low teak dresser in the first photo below is what we used as a credenza in our living room. My dad and I refinished it two summers ago, and I'd just completed giving it a once-over after our hot summer. We used to put our television and West German pottery on it.
My task in the coming months is to find replacements.

Interior Design Show West 2009
Last night my husband and I went on a 'double date' with Rockelle and her spouse. It was fantastic to get out after being trapped for nine nights by my psyche, an uninhabitable apartment and a hotel room designed around polyester hues of sage and Tuscan sun. After sushi at Kaide we headed down to IDS West, which, after losing 95% of our furniture in the last ten days, was highly anticipated.
Design shows in Vancouver = superior craftsmanship (particularly woodworking), the environment, pastels, and clean lines.
