the cute works of cozy tomato, a japanese illustrator who produces work for books, magazines, products and advertising. if you are designing print or pattern for children this work could be pretty inspiring.


some wrapping paper picked up this weekend in my favourite stationery shop paperchase. above brightly coloured deer who have angular edges and below, beautiful black & white baroque paper that will do for christmas and beyond.

the excellent 'absolute zero degrees' have designed patterns for wrapping paper as part of sheba's christmas advertising campaign. whats so cool about it is when you look closely at the snowflakes they are made from cats in various poses (apparently modelled by their own cat lucan !). they've also had their wallpaper featured in the book 'new decor' by elizabeth wilhide.

top interior designer kelly hoppen has teamed up with BHS (british homes stores) to design an exclusive range of accessories. entitled KHOME there are over 180 products split over two collections, all very stylish and featuring some great patterns, like this vase above.
