Great new product I stumbled upon which goes immediately to my resource library. Lightwave Laser Designs offer a range of services of laser cutting of stencils, acrylic, paper and wood. One can select from the library of patterns or do a custom one. Their pre-made product selection is also very inspiring: from lamps to screens, art and window covers.

This art installation by Paul Cocksedge took my breath away. Called A Gust of Wind, the piece featured 300 curled pieces of Corian engraved with the words “Ideas Tray” and a series number. This piece was exhibited for one day only at V&A as a part of London Fashion Week, just as inspiration comes and goes, you better catch it and jot it down At the end of the day they were given away to partners of the project and members of the public for use as paper trays.

Jeez, I totally forgot to tell all of you guys about the incredible art exhibition in Westwood. Persian-American artist Kamran Khavarani presents his abstract romanticism works inspired by the Persian mystic, Rumi. The exhibit closes June 17 but it definitely is worth stopping by. The intensity of colors and the unique painting techniques are something to amaze at and abstract visuals will make you ponder. If you miss it, at lease browse through his website for the full collection of works. So inspiring.
To visit: Private Gallery 1020 Westwood Boulevard in Los Angeles

As for me, there’s never enough of wallpapers, wall coverings and decorative panels. They always make such a profound transformation in a room at a minimal effort. So I was so exited to discover the ModularArts, a solid mineral composite panels with a such variety of patterns. Painted, lit or just as is, they would add architectural interest to any space. Incredible source of inspiration.
