intanto...

'Il libro piu corto del mundo' (the shortest book of the world by Paul Cox)
Intanto=meanwhile. A very smart illustration book.



Also have his other book 'cox codex', which is one of the most inspiring books in my bookcase

fresh start

I have to start drawing again, for real.

(The last pic is a page from bruno munari's book 'supplemento al dizionario italiano'.
Didn't know, but found in Rome,in a childrens house in the villa borghese (a nice park)
were they did nice workshops, theater and cinema for kids. We had the best time there.)

Does anyone know anything about this pin? I guess that it's russian or something but I have no idea.

Back from italy!

Today we're travelling down south to Italy. Pisa, Firenze, Rome, I'm very curious! Few pics from Miroslav Saseks book about Rome and a cute travel-find.

11juli?

The image of the mobile made me think about an old series of craft books, 1-2-3...klaar. It's full of beautifull basic ideas about printing, weaving and making your own puppets.

ilike

Aah, golden shoes, cahiers and mobiles. Life is great with those things around me.

vive le vélo

A quick post because I'm a bit busy giving a creative summercamp. It's super nice, the kids are so enthusiastic! Monday we tried to make their own shirts, we had the plan to silkscreen them, but after a while we saw that the product we used was really old, so it didn't work. Then we decided to stencil them. A happy ending, after all.

I was quite charmed when I saw this Czech piece of playmobil. Very cute and for free.

Check this funny stop motion video: western spaghetti. It's brilliant!

water balloon battle

But the balloon was soon replaced by the real stuff.

point final

Last week we've celebrated the end of our school career. It couldn't be better. Me and my friend have got to go on stage and we've got some really nice flowers.

there's no place like home

We are moving to a new place, looking for some new stuff to furnish the appartement.
