Just came across these beauties while browsing The Dieline - how cool are these?? I'm such a sucker for clean & simple design. And gemstones.
"PELLE Designs are designers Jean and Oliver Pelle who met and studied
at the Yale School of Architecture. From their studio in Red Hook
Brooklyn they create lighting, furniture, interiors and architecture.
Their inspiration comes from observing and re-imagining the
possibilities of objects and spaces around them. Ultimately, their work
is about a search for a unique beauty that is within the materials and
forms they find in their process."
I was recently interviewed about a few of my favourite things - graphic design, current trends and Pinterest (!) on Vodacom Now! Definitely feel very honoured to be featured on their site. Now, I just need to work on that silly face ...
By now it's no secret that Pantone's Colour of the Year is Radiant Orchid. This year, Sephora has teamed up with the colour authority to produce a line of beautifully co-ordinated beauty products.
"An invitation to innovation,
Radiant Orchid encourages expanded creativity and originality, which is
increasingly valued in today’s society. An enchanting harmony of
fuchsia, purple and pink undertones, Radiant Orchid inspires confidence
and emanates great joy, love and health. It is a captivating purple, one
that draws you in with its beguiling charm."
- Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director, Pantone Color Institute®
Personally, I was quite "on the fence" about this this colour - purple has never been a real favourite of mine, but after seeing this beautiful collaboration, I just might be converted!
