Hey, there’s a new Kiosk on the southerner’s side of the river! We refreshed the original Kiosk Floreat Beach website & launched the new Freo site just a couple of days ago. Thanks to the OM4 guys for taking my ordered-but-mad design and making it work. Congrats & good luck to Jaqii & Stefano.
It’s the modernist dream house nonpareil. Where my love of cocktails, midcentury mod, architecture & swimming pool swanning meet in complete accord. The Paganin House on the Boulevarde, Floreat, is up for Auction – one of the stand-out examples of Iwan Iwanoff’s work. Also for sale, the Iwanoff Dianella House (Shannon Rd), a later construction, with […]
Hey, Shag was in our house! So Shag – aka Josh Agle – is back in Australia, jetsetting into Perth’s Outré Gallery for his exhibition opening last Friday night. We caught up with Josh & Martin on Sunday for a beachside breakfast at The Kiosk - with champagne, naturellement – followed by a tour of the modernist enclave of Floreat […]
Yippitee! I won the Rob Frith giveaway of the limited edition biography of Guy Grey Smith by Andrew Gaynor, photos by Rob Frith, Acorn Photography . I happened to know the answer to an obscure question about Rob & Andrew’s short-lived foray into the mad world of Rock & Roll Country & Western, as Tragic. (Apparently the band inspired […]
Hello CIT operatives! (I hope it’s OK that I swiped your photo from yesterday’s debriefing?) Yesterday I offered considered opinions & a few ill-considered puns to the students of Room 259 in the CIT Bunker. Thanks for your attention & your warm welcome via the Area57 Newsletter! Looking forward to seeing the results of your hard […]
I’m so excited to be involved with the talented 3rd year Graphic Design students at Central on a real-life industry project. Looking forward to meeting the newest, freshest batch of industry creatives… Hi guys!
Those nice fellows at Organ posted about my work yesterday on Australian Infront. Hey thanks for the exposure guys! (I find it funny to be referred to as an “accomplished knitter” – that’s going on my C.V.)
Just received my MooLuxe business cards – chunky triplexed cards for a startlingly good price. They are digitally printed on beautiful Mohawk Superfine paper, with a colour layer in-between. Think TimTam, Monte Carlo or Tina wafer biscuits. Yummy! You can feature a different image on the reverse of every single card. And they arrive in […]
Everything’s happenin’ in the Shenton Park precinct!Just down the road from OM4 & a stone’s throw from RedTiki, the Suite & the Little Pantry, is the minimally chic Excelsior Deli. Concrete blocks, blonde timbers, happy-face cakes and lovely Linda make it worth a (daily) visit.
My Mum Joy has a little creative thing going on. She’s been busily crocheting these gorgeous amigurumi (little Japanese crocheted toys) for all 6 grandkids and many friends (big & small). They’ve been a huge hit, but it’d be great to sell some to fund her wool purchases! These little hand-made friends are about 10-12 […]
