Messages on the tube...

Don't you love it when people write messages to themselves on their hands!? (We all do it, so just admit it!)

Caught this guy on the Central line with his hand pressed up against a barrier... Had to capture it!

The Larder cafe

This is a pic from my local cafe, The Larder, in Bethnal Green, London. Everytime I sit in there for a coffee, I love staring at the cool decals like this one... Great little place with vegetarian, organic foods.

Jam @ Spitalfields market

I really liked this sign in Spitalfields market the other day, made of buttons and ribbons! Lovely.

Bike wheel animation

This designer Katy Beveridge has come up with ingenious designs using bicycles. Basically, she made paper cutouts and when the bike is ridden the movement makes an animated effect!

Net-A-Porter offices

I've just been out to the Net-A-Porter and Mr Porter offices in West London. They are in the Westfield shopping centre at Shepherd's Bush (the new Eastern version is opening very soon too!) and are very swanky and new. Lovely black and white decor, although I must say, a bit disappointing to see already peeled paint and broken pieces considering they have only been in there since March this year! Still lovely and quite decadent thought :-)

Can you believe this is made entirely of...

Post-its!? A whole of Post-it notes stuck together to form "blocks" that are then stacked up to create a wall. Pretty cool hey? Sculpture by Yo Shimada. Source: www.designboom.com
