Animals - Stockholm

I'm a big animal lover & I was delighted to spot lots of super cute & funny animals within the Stockholm window displays from foxes, bears & owls to even squirrels!

Here are a few of my favourites! You might also like our other inspiring Stockholm posts such as Colour & Texture & Typography.

 

I actually bought the little bird sculpture (featured above) as a fun addition to the studio!

Even Libby made an animal friend!

Milan - Inspiration!

Back in July I visited the beautiful Italian city of Milan, I get so much from traveling...by just wandering the streets & exploring I can feed my imagination & creativity for months. I never go anywhere without my camera, I love to record design, colour, texture, nature & architecture, even documenting the mundane can be beautiful. I try to soak up all of the inspiration around me. Everything I see can spark a design idea or push me to try something new! Here are some of my favourite images from a the city.

I visited Milan with the super talented illustrator Amy Wilde! 

I love to think & reflect whilst traveling it keeps my creative juices flowing!
