Showdown carpets are entirely fresh and different. Each one is created using urethane foam that is hand-mixed and poured into syringes before being hand squirted into lines and shapes. The end result is an experiment in color and patter that looks like a rug. Take a peek at the process below.

In Juana Gómez‘s Conceptual 2015 combines photography and embroidery as each piece is overlaid with the appropriate body system or musculature. Gómez aims to point out that which is always present in every moment of life but is rarely seen.
Chris Earl‘s upbringing in Papua New Guinea instilled in him a respect for creating objects to fulfill a purpose, create a story, and build community. He puts it all into play in his line of furniture, tabletop, and ceramics where that trifecta is the guiding light. Functional, graceful, and timeless.
Portraits, reclaimed bottles, and plenty of plant life all play parts in Julian Meagher‘s paintings. Some so dimensional that I had myself questioning just what I was looking at. I’m pinning it on the fact that Meagher is a former medical doctor with an innate understanding of 3D, though he’s also trained in traditional oil portraiture in Florence, Italy and carries over some of those techniques. Whatever the case, just wow.
A serious love of home accessories, interior design, and home decor was the driving force behind Fox & Ramona‘s 2011 inception in Melbourne, Australia. Each and every concrete piece is made in shop owner Kristy’s home, which she then juxtaposes them with freeform paint strokes.

When picking jewelry I generally gravitate towards simple pieces that will be in rotation for years to come. Favor‘s thoughtfully composed jewelry line ticks all the boxes with their high quality materials, ethically-sourced stones, and the fact that all pieces are designed to compliment one another. Group them together or add to your other favorites seamlessly.
The layered mixed media works of Dorris Vooijs are a study in what beauty can come from the combination of traditional and digital techniques. Collected vintage pictures, digital sketches, markers, spray paint, embroidery, and ink all play their roles as Dorris turns it all into something that matches her current state of mind.
I’m smitten with Julia Gabriel Studio‘s latest denim series collection. The Houston-based brand is known for architectural shapes and humble materials that are meant to be carried daily as they age with grace.
