The Richard Goodall Gallery.

One stop shop for original art, print and designer toys - The Richard Goodall Gallery in the Northern Quarter. One of my favourite haunts at University in Manchester. I particularly love the rock band art - Jason Munn's The Small Stakes is worth a look.




Jimmie Martin in Kensington.

Finally, a Jimmie Martin showroom right around the corner. Ever since I spotted their Flamingo chairs I have been smitten!


Skull and crossbones at Bisazza.

Part of the Crystal range of mosaics at Bisazza tiles.



Jaime Hayon for Lladro.

Lladro porcelain is normally a bit sickly sweet for me but Jaime Hayon's collection has hit the spot. Always whimsical, never dull but for 1600 quid a pop I'll have to admire from afar.





Groninger Museum - The Netherlands

Check out the the lounge designed by Belgian artists Studio Job for the Groninger Museum. 




Las Vegas Laboutin.

Studio XAG have done an amazing window display for Christian Laboutin in London.

Elevated Heights.

Itay Ohaly's art piece, 'Elavated bench', has sent me on a romantic daydream. And just in time for Valentines Day too. As I'm sure most people have attempted to climb a lamp post on a night out, these handy staircases make the journey up a whole lot easier - and with a seat made for two!
