It’s always nice when you have downtime and get to kick it with cool cats. Bonus if the weather is spectacular like it is here today in LA. Thanks Monica and Jae for hanging out. If you get a chance and you’re in LA, do take a walk through the Fabric and Fashion District. Tons of color, patterns, textures, and inspiration!
WXY shoes by Weng Xin Yu. Marrying both architecture and shoes. A touch of the menswear look too. My heart exploded. Eager for more. Image via HighSnobette.
Happy birthday Mies van der Rohe.
Tham & Videgård is an architecture firm located in Stockholm, Sweden. I know their name from their work on Swedish Museum of Modern Art in Malmö, but stumbled upon these photos of their private home and summer home. Love the use space and light. Gorgeous.
Wear your city. Such a cool concept.
A Cabin in a Loft in Brooklyn. I know where I want to stay when I go to NYC. This is too cute.
Holy shit. This just made my lifetime. Ice Cube talks about The Eames. Thank you @Michaelcina for sharing.
Personal life goal of mine: Visit South America. The video above shows you the beautiful city of Chile, and all of it’s unique architecture. I love how seamlessly this library fit into the city. It’s modern yet because of the treatment outside, compliments it’s location rather than obstructing. I really like also that the windows are vast and open. Natural lighting is so important in a library. Absolutely in love. Always so envious that an architect can design spaces. Designed by Murua-Valenzuela.

The new West Hollywood library looks AMAZING. Have to go check it out. The opening was this past Saturday and there was a book fair yesterday. Gutted I missed it. Click on the photo for more images.
Retweeted this the other day but had to get the official opening date which is October 1st. SO going. Entire Eames living room in the LACMA. Yesyesyes! This is for the California Design, 1930-1965: “Living in a Modern Way” exhibition.
