Dana Tanamachi & Jessica Hische



Dana Tanamachi is a custom chalk letterer. Her works are brilliant with a nice classic touch. I'm curious how is her home like or what is in her toolbag, if ever featured on designsponge. Another letterer and illustrator worth to mentioning is Jessica Hische

Bring out your wallpaper outdoors




All images via lost at E minor

Wallpapers are usually reserved for the owners and guests' eyes by being pasted indoors. But what about bringing it to the outdoors - have it plastered to the exterior of your house or buildings, wouldn't it be so rad ?


We Have a NEW Website !


It's been some crazy months! We both went into hiding for awhile, hence the lack of blog updates. It's indeed a great pleasure to see a product that started out as hand-sewn prototype and self screen-printed turns out into some Actual product! Now we have lots of these stored, purchases can be made through the website or facebook by sending us an email on your order momentarily. The shop page will be up and running live pretty soon. So watch that space dudes.

All orders can be via enquiries@neblostudio.com if you know which tote you're lusting after. We warn you though! Some designs are selling out fast!

You can also connect with us at http://www.facebook.com/neblostudio

Ariele Alasko

Pretty pretty wood.

Ariele Alasko makes new life out of old discarded chairs and planks of food. Basically everything that has no use in life anymore has been rebirth!  I like how she added her own personal touch to each and every table or headboards or cheeseboards. No two product is the same, and it should feel special that you are the only person in the world who has that coffetable isn't it?




All images above are from Ariele Alasko

How cool would that headboard look in the bedroom? Something similar here would be Originals. Well, its not exactly the same as Alasko's handcrafted work (we see via images that every furniture Ariele built is from scratch, the rivets, the nails, the sawing, the polishing) but for the past few months, our eyes and mind are more open to be on the lookout for furnitures made of wood. Recently, we pop by Originals showroom to see for ourselves that dinner table I spotted in of their images from Facebook.

It's still a far fetch idea, but we've sort of know the look of our house interior. It'd be wicked.

Saturday Adventure at Pulau Ubin

We spent a Saturday last month in Pulau Ubin. There's practically no-where else to go in Singapore - locals spend their weekends traipsing in shopping centres, every neighbourhood has one or they eat while the young expats can fly off to neighbouring countries in a hearbeat. You can sit at your desk surfing random sites and Facebook-ing away and the next thing you know, 3 hours is gone just like that. Now back to Ubin, here's some photographs we took.







Ceramics




I'm always intrigued on crafters', designers' and artists' workspaces or studio. Jennifer Causey, one of my favouritest food & still life photographer undertakes The Makers project. Its a brilliant culmination of workspaces photographs under one roof. You can see the photographs here. I Love ceramics - those visits to cafes and restaurants gets me a bit pleased when I drink from a beautifully designed cups.

What are your favourites?

Tom Robinson






I was reading through this Les Masquent L'enfant blog written by a friend of mine and one of his entry got me clicking on the link to see these photos above. Brilliant eh? Places like Peru and Bolivia or even Colombia aren't one of the top tiered traveling destinations that locals here sought after. Given a chance, we would love to go there. The vacation photos that we see on and off through our wall feed in Facebook were relatively the same safe places - Bangkok, Perth, London, Rome, Jakarta. ( To be sure, steward and stewardess friends' are not counted ). So these photos by Tom Robinson ( you SHOULD see the rest of his pictures) offered a different insight on the less travelled places. I quite like the first picture of the kid with a condor carcass in a good state. What about you?

The Goodwin Project


This project follows the vagabond life of Aamion Goodwin and his wife, Daize plus their two kids. Apart from how I can crave for their lifestyle (always on the move, constantly exposed to the beauty of nature) plus you can take away the technology and advertisements, the cinematography as whole is impeccable. These images are a series of portraits taken off from their blog. There is striking similarities of photography style by Mike Matas, its the rich colours, fine details and all. The photographs here are so alive till it makes us want to jump on the next plane and travel to India.
