50s love

50s love
Lots of 50's-inspired stuff on my mind lately. Jesse and I have been working with ceramics transfers, both making things very reminiscent of that era (it's for Rooms on View, but we can't show anything yet...). And then over the weekend, I bought Taschen's Decorative Art 50s book, which is an absolute treasure trove of inspiration for textiles, furniture, ceramics, lighting. Wow, it's totally to swoon for.
I got these pics from the Taschen website, and you can see more here.

I'm checking this book out asap! I love the 50-60 surface designs.
Can't wait to see what is it that you're working on:)

I'm with you on the 50's love.. I think I spent half of last year working on a set of flash cards of mid-century (and some just modern) icons. It was such a fun project..

I just lOVE LOVE LOVE your blog. It's always such a pleasure to peek in and see what you are doing. As another illustrator I'm always so thrilled to see the work you do!

All the best,

Jen
