My Top 6 Things about Australia.

So, as I stated previously I really loved being out in Australia, and as soon as I graduate I am packing my bags and going for a year- FACT. Hopefully my buddy Alex is going to come with me and get a place for a year. See as theyl be no jobs, and swine flu may have destroyed London im going to use my savings head to Japan for a month or so, then its to OZ. Met some Ozzy designers who reckon they can hook me up out there, and if not a working holiday doing bar work will be fine. Then I want on my way back to go West coast of America up the coast from LA, and then home????

So, I digress, my top 6 (??) Things about Sydney, in no paticular order are as follows,

1) CAROLINE PREISS-The aussie princess/ giant slayer. Fact- this girl is crazy crazy. A proper generous and selfless person with an amazing attitude- bloody hot too. haha.miss you loads Dexter!!!
2) BIG P SAUNDERS A.K.A BIG DADDY- I shall follow this man to the end of the Earth haha
3) Banana Bread/ Pancakes- Cannot choose between them, both awsome and cheap.
4) NEWTOWN- awsome place- cool bars restuarants and houses.
5) Empire of the sun (Although apparently their big here too), actually I may replace this with being able to get tickets to gigs easily- London is a pain in the arse for this.
6) The amazing views- I am a tourist, however the views there were amazing, picturesque. Its a place where you suddenly realise its probably the best place on Earth, welllll......with London.

Any of my mates in OZ who read this- thanks so much for all your hospitality, love, and beers. miss everyone alot. Come to London!!

Milan 2009

Went out to Milan last weekend for the end of design week. Was a really enjoyable weekend, and saw alot of great stuff, and alot of not so great stuff. I think the credit crunch had maybe hit, as there was alot of companies who wernt showing anything new. I have listed my highlights below, and will hopefully get some pics up soon. Great time, great food, great wine and free beer. Met loads of cool people aswell- first major chance to network which was quite fun.

1) Cinq Cinq (5.5) Exhibit
2) Established and Sons show- Insane!
3) Panasonic lighting- Naoto Fukasawa/ patricia urquiola energy efficient lighting
4) Superstudio- in paticular Phillips installation by RANDOM INTERNATIONAL
