Love these colourful parrot cards from Sarah Maxey at Nice Work.
For you bird enthusiasts – that’s a kakapo on the left and a pair of rosellas on the right – both native to New Zealand. The kakapo was once described as the ‘world’s largest, fattest and least-able-to-fly parrot’. Awesome.
Another educational post!
Cards available here.

Annabelle Elston’s campaign for Oyuna really makes me want to wrap up in one their cashmere blankets.
Maybe it’s because I have a rotten cold.
Nice (and effective) campaign nonetheless.

Enjoy these illustrations and paintings by Robert Nicol who likes to think about ‘anxiety, fear, boredom, time, understanding, happiness, love, the weather and generally try to make sense of life’ while he works.
Good man.

Tilda Swinton’s new film, I AM LOVE, looks like a stunner. Beautiful trailer and post below.
On another note – I’ve got the flu, folks, so sadly not many posts until I recover! No, not fun.

This sculpture by Kiwi artist Francis Upritchard is just so current (Victoriana meets solar system). And it’s from 2004.
Respect.

Aino-Maija Metsola’s bold new print for the Marimekko Spring 2010 collection, called Ötökkä.
That’s a lot of umlauts.

I think it takes a certain kind of person to live in a minimal, modern, white church conversion.
Hallelujah!

An incredibly charming 1960’s house modernised by architectural salvage and design firm, Retrouvious. Lovely parquet floors, winding staircase, mid-century furniture.
And there’s something refreshing about those old-school, oversized sliding glass doors.
