ART...WORKS

Check out this beauty! With a stunning view of ‘Party Central’ this recently refitted office on Auckland’s waterfront employs beautiful fabrics and intriguing wall and ceiling coverings to create a vibrant, modern workplace. The brief was to provide artworks from a range of New Zealand artists that reflected the company’s passion for their work and gave each individual space a character all of its own. Using artworks from Anya Homs, Gerda Leenards, James Ross and photographer Fleur Harland, and incorporating a timeless Leigh Christensen sculpture in the foyer, we were able to achieve a sense of harmony to thrill both client and designer.

When they do, every song sounds like it was meant for you, your traditional Sunday morning pancakes taste like bitter cardboard and you feel like no-one in the world realises how crushed, splintered and trodden-upon your heart is. So how do you get over it? If you are Croatian couple Olinka Vistica and Dazen Grubisic (sadly no longer an item), you immortalise the mementos of your love in a museum and open it to the public. The Museum of Broken Relationships has been so successful that there is now a travelling exhibition and plans to open a replica MOBR on every continent. Who would have thought....

*** The world of blogging is a fascinating place. At times weird and at times wonderful, it’s always interesting to sit down with your morning coffee and see how others see the world. Here’s a cute design blog - some of you may know it - it’s called Design*Sponge...
