This is a little ham-fisted but you have to admire the commitment.

RW classic

A classic plaid by Russel Wright. I believe that these were used for tableclothes and napkins. It reminds me of the pixel patterns that are popping up everywhere.

wallcoverings

We worked on a project all summer for a high-end window covering manufacturers sample book. It was a really interesting project about creating an informative and enjoyable user experience while also upholding some lofty brand expectations. In the process it occurred to me just how hard it is to create a good pattern that is appealing to a large variety of consumers.

concept toast

This is a concept for a new show that I am working on for 2009. It is based on a DiTullo sketch for a new technology toaster. Hopefully I will have more to reveal on the show in the coming months.

holiday gift idea #7

This is especially good for those living far away. Send them a box of these and they will know you care. They are expensive so be sure to get yourself the sampler and try some of the exotic flavors for yourself before gifting. Heather J, these are the chocolates (by Richart) that we send to clients who are not cooperating in hopes of swaying them. Is that wrong?

bad gift idea #1

Felt is great but who uses these things and do you leave it or take it back with you?

holiday gift idea #6

These do not work for kids. I think that their slabby, cookie-cutter, abstract form makes them much less desireable as a gift for kids than as a fun decorative family room element for adults. The price is a little whacked.
