i crave carte blanche...

icrave's latest project, carte blanche at the hotel gansevoort, new york, is situated on the most vibrant corner of the meatpacking district...

icrave grabbed this corner and turned it inside out, making a distinct volume in the hotel - capturing the street life and breaking away from the style of the existing lobby...

"the designers at ICRAVE breathed life into the heart of the hotel – creating a space that meets the needs of a 24 hour hotel lobby. The design is layered for various traveler types that will occupy the space. From the business traveler to the romantic traveler to the fashionable crowd of the neighborhood, the space works equally well for a mid-morning cappuccino, an afternoon meeting, a light lunch or a guest checking into their room..."

blogwatch...

kickstarting my week with 2 new and interesting bloggs to add to my irish blogroll...

first up, ronan carton and box 7 design...

ronan is an interior designer based in dublin, i worked with ronan for 6 months in 2008...great guy, great wit...through his new company and affiliated blogpsot, ronan presents his passion for design and all things design related...his posts reflecting the things, places and people that inspire him...


with a background in hospitality design, ronan is interested in the points where art meets commerce and the connection between interior design and installation art...interesting and challenging viewpoint on interior design and its associations with the interfaces of the users...

i've already enjoy many interesting snapshots of hotels, bars and retail stores from ronan and box7 design...

second up, is a brand new blogg from joanne kelly and anthony buggy of think contemporary...

with only one post to date, already i'm hooked with the phunky post about an amazing cafe in stockholm, with the design based on the notion of a bullfight...interesting post, and i'm looking forward to loads more from these guys...

wine and design...

this is a great concept for a night generated by the ASID here in northwest arkansas...


meet your suppliers and vendors to the design community here in northwest arkansas and enjoy a glass of wine...wine, music, door prizes, silent auction...all in all makes for a fun night...

and i havent even begun to think about the networking and the new contacts at the ready...

bricking it...

i saw this image and then i went to investigate...
and when i investigated i found all these images...tv cabinets, credenza's, drawer units...


once again joel escalona...loving the simplicity in design and detail about your work and style...
