Super Whatnot

Super Whatnot - A super groovy and super sexy new bar in Brisbane, definitely on my to-do list next time I'm up that way

From Architecture AU:

Super Whatnot is a tiny bar, conceived by a young businessman/entrepreneur returning to Brisbane after years abroad and in Melbourne. Aware of the new licensing laws and the relaxing of Brisbane City Council’s planning requirements to promote the activation of the city centre’s forgotten laneways, a search for a suitable space uncovered the old loading dock and storage area of the venerable Gardams fabric store, an institution in Brisbane for dressmakers but now relocated to the suburbs. The space was more recently, and briefly, the home of a beauty school. Located in Burnett Lane at the southern part of the city centre, it is immediately to the west of the popular Queen Street Mall, the epicentre of the city’s retail precinct.

All in a morning's walk

I went to Lake Burley Griffin for a run this morning, but it was such a glorious day I ended up taking quite a few snaps along the way...

MIPA Marble Terrazzo Tiles

Check out this gorgeous new range of terrazzo tiles by Academy.  Total love.  And so many more colours and patterns available!

Jam Donut Cupcakes

I will SO be making some of these! I spied them on LifeStyled, although they are originally from Not Quite Nigella. 

YUM!

Academy Tiles, Melbourne showroom

Very excited to receive an email from Academy Tiles today saying that their new Richmond showroom is open!  I am in Melbourne much more often than Sydney these days, so looking forward to checking out all their beautiful displays on my next trip.

Lisa Madigan @ kaleidoscope

I've always admired Lisa Madigan's artwork, but these new pieces are beyond fabulous.  The black is so moody.  I so want one!   This collection of works is being featured as part of the La Femme group exhibition at the Kaleidoscope Gallery in Sydney, opening tonight.

Not only is Lisa a talented artist, she is also a stylist and has a beautiful homewares shop in gorgeous Berry NSW and her home makes my heart skip a beat.

And a snapshot of her divine home.  Sigh.

The Mod Collective

I'm a little bit in love with The Mod Collective.  Don't you just want every single piece of porcelain? And I'd kill for one (or two!) of those lights!

Sorry it's been a little quiet around here the past few weeks.  Big things are happening!  Hope to be sharing soon.
