The Colourful World of Sisters Gulassa

I love colour and pattern and no-one does this with more flair than Sister Gulassa. They are crazy about pattern mixing and bright bold colours and their passion really shows in their unique work-style.

 

Sisters Gulassa is an international design studio. It was founded by two sisters, Lise who is based in California and Cyrille who is based in Vienna. This brand specializes in vibrant, vivacious prints and products for interior and fashion, creative direction, design development and branding. They work with many well-known clients such as; as Old Navy, The North Face, Carve Designs, Gap and Pottery Barn. Their work includes a unique line of wall runners, wall murals, floor flowers, paper products, fabric, and totes

“Both sisters design, research and create art. Their backgrounds started with art, fashion and advertising and while working together abroad in Romania, they realized their combined interests could result in a rather vibrant body of work.

They also produce stunning wall pieces in mixed media which can be purchased through Saatchi or Spoon flower.

I have posted a wonderful selection of work to brighten up your day!

Heather Alstead Design

 I am always looking out for new and interesting products and if these are made in Britain; all the better for it.  I have found this lovely company which is 100% British made with a wonderful sense of fun. Producing a range of cushions, book marks, stationery and mugs based on fairy stories. We all love fairy stories, great for adults and children alike…

All of the products in this extensive range are created by Heather and manufactured and assembled in Britain. The company is based in York, and offers a unique and original range of products, which are designed to enhance the world around us whilst also retaining a sense of humour.

Passionate about British design and ‘home-grown’ sourced materials, her work reflects her unique personal style, impeccable eye for detail and enthusiasm for quality materials and well-made products. Inspiration is taken from every aspect of her life, from classic British literature to subverting the well-known.

There is more to these products than first meets the eye, with hidden meanings and unique design details thoughtfully concealed throughout.

Heather Alstead Design products are split into three ranges; Fairy Tales, Goldilocks and the Three Bears and Nursery Rhymes & Stories.

We all love a happy ending

Bye for now.

Wonderful Shops.....

Merci-111 Boulevard Beaumarchais-Paris

Housed in a stunning historical building, this shop combines shopping, eating and design. A one stop destination for all that is important in life……

Merci was created in March 2009, in the heart of the historic Haut-Marais district. The founders, Bernard and Marie-France Cohen, realised that Paris lacked a place which brought together the best in fashion, design, household goods, and friendly eating options.

Merci's aim is to bring together, under one roof, products and customers who traditionally have not had the chance to meet such as vintage furniture or contemporary creations; emerging new fashion brands or already-recognised collections; impulse buys, affordable for all or much rarer pieces, sometimes in limited editions.

Merci calls this approach "The One and The Other" because we don't want to have to choose between traditional or modern, local or international, simple or costly, mass-produced or individually made, but to bring them all together, and present the best of each world.

Merci is a shop which works like a magazine. Over 15 exhibitions/events around a selection, and an original theatrical design in harmony with the year, have transformed the place into a "store-destination". The exhibitions' themes put over the Merci point of view on a trend, a change in society, the work of a designer or an irresistible take on a project.
