new obsessions
We met Christophe Vialle at Maison Objet in Paris this spring and fell madly for one another--and his indoor garden boxes, which he calls Haute Culture. Besides grass, there are soil packs with seeds of herbs and peas, too. We've got them in colors and clear plexi. I love the mini Haute Culture boxes, too, because they can be hung on the wall, even spelling out a letter or word.

Total geek? Or Greek? These pant clips are inspired by Hermes, Greek god with the winged sandals. Amsterdam designer Gijs Bakker was aiming for bicycle safety with these fluorescent PVC strips, as well as cool. But it seems the kids snatching them up at our shop in Venice also give it glowing marks as a club/party accessory, wrapped around their arms. Love it.

what's in store?

Dwell on Design '09

Install starts today on our pop-up at Dwell on Design '09. A+R is one of three shops invited to do this, and we'll be sharing the selling stage with our pals at Flight 001 and Skylight Books, as well as hawking Dwell T-shirts and notebooks. This is the second year DOD has taken place in L.A., and the second time they've invited us to participate in this showcase.
Andy will also be speaking this Saturday at 11 a.m. on the Design Innovation panel with two of our favorite fellow design shop owners, Fitz of Fitzu and Keiko Shinomoto of Tortoise.
Note the codes in the image above for entry discounts.
Drop by the convention center and say hello. We'll be there through Sunday when it all packs up until next year.
