Drooger!

Was looking forward to attending the "Designers Speak" session at the New Dowse next Wednesday. It is organised by the Designers' Institute of New Zealand and will be feature Dutch designer Dutch designer Gert Jan Leusink talking about the "Inspiration behind Droog Design and its international success."

It's a great opportunity, particularly as most of the DINZ events are held in Auckland. DINZ events in Wellington are few and far between. But unfortunately, I have a prior engagement so will miss it. I'm going to see the Droog exhibition at the Dowse tomorrow, though. So that's some compensation.

PS. I think the new Dowse colours & graphic image are v cool.

It worked for me

Sign outside Caffiend in Petone today. It's nearly as good as Eva Dixon's "All you can eat for as much as it costs."



& cool outfit inside.

Back in the real world

Back from an arduous time in the Deep South.

Saved by the Vodem. It is great to be online anywhere you like and makes it easy to keep in touch with clients while on the road.

Contrary to popular belief, the weather was great down there, except for a torrential downpour on the last day. It's a beautiful part of the country though, and it was great to go out to Oreti Beach again, and to Riverton (even in the wet).
