Facade Fascination...

This post begins a newbie regular to the Taybian Design blog

Facade Fascination!

For as long as I can remember I have been fascinated by facades! The new, the old, the odd, the beautiful, the ugly, the falling apart; especially the falling apart! In this regular feature I will visually explore facades, in full, their detail, structure and of course texture.

This weeks facade is a local one in quite an affluent suburb in Brisbane, Australia. What strikes me as beautiful, its juxtaposition in such a suburb, yet this is still an operational business. Wouldn't you shop there?!?

My workroom of late...

The past few weeks have been SO hectic! I have been finalizing my designs for my next collection. Many a late night (hence the fuzziness of the images). These have been just some of my 'tools of trade' of late. Believe it or not, I am actually needing to invest in more 'tools', scissors and some much larger cutting implements (more about that later on). Like shoes (see previous post), bags (of course!), accessories and clothing, these 'tools' are as important 'investment' pieces!

ps. I CANNOT WAIT TO GIVE YOU A GLIMPSE INTO THE NEW COLLECTION. IT IS GOING TO BE GORGEOUS!!! A couple of months off yet, but WATCH THIS SPACE!

Tasmanian Timbers

Whilst I was in my homeland of Tasmania just recently, I decided to bring back my own little piece of Tasmania. This ruler is simply divine and has a little samples of all Tassies prominent gorgeous timbers:Tea Tree, Celery Top Pine, Eucalyptus, Blackwood, Sassafras, King Billy Pine, Huon Pine and Myrtle.

These rulers have been produced my two local brothers (from the Huon region) for many many years.

Let's hope for many years to come!

If you are heading to Tassie at any time, make sure to head down to the Salamanca precinct on the docks. I purchased this ruler (plus a GORGEOUS Blackwood chopping board) from the lovely Val Moehrke from Gallery 77 & the Ringrove Collection.
