Rochetoirin, France

Drove back to Mike and Guillaume's town after Milan. This place is glorious! Far back of this first picture are the French Alps, we dove through those.

Their studio. It's a real dream. 

We went on a run through town and in the woods. I loved it!

Random cool stuff they make sits around the office like this..

Easter in the Southern California sun

I got to spend Easter with a few of my favorite people in the world. The Porters, Bournes and Kristine.

The boys put on these wet-suits and they get all pose-y. Hilarious.

Plopped herself up there all by herself.

I love these girlies. I wish I was them.

Loopin' Louie. Requires heart, focus and strategy. 

She's a beaut.

The only one following directions and smiling. Me.

Milan 2013

Milan was a whirlwind of looking at (mostly) cool stuff for 3 days. But you leave and kind of just want to stare and at a white wall for the rest of your life.  I am working on putting all of our (Mike and Guillaume's) images together for a report on themes/trends/inspirations etc.. I really do love getting a look at what is happing and how even the tiniest details can spark an idea for something we are working on. Even just the energy is inspiring. My favorite every year is obviously the young designers and independent designers. They are located in and around the city. Sometimes I am more interested at the people milling around then the actual products. Sorry for the random selection.
