LOBSTER POTTING
Posted in Interiors, Pictures, Style with tags http://www.watersideproperties.co.uk, Pevensey, ttp://www.miroslavsasek.com/, www.readyforbattle.co.uk on July 9, 2010 by mat bickleyWith my gardening leave rapidly approaching its end, we felt a visit to the Lobster Pot was in order. For the last week Nik and I have taken up residence at the idyllic retreat on the beach in Pevensey, and enjoyed this amazing weather with a succession of close friends and family.
Niks dad has recently put the property on a holiday lets scheme, and we were fortunate enough to get a stay in before its handed over for the rest of the summer… I highly recommend booking this place for a weekend battery recharge. With the exception of a brief visit to Brighton for a spot of vintage shopping, we haven’t moved further than the area between the decking and the beach.
I found this beautiful canvas/leather backpack in a shop called OASIS Antiques in the lanes. Cant quite work out where its from, possibly French boy scouts 30’s/40’s…. it has this 3 crown insignia on the leather (anyone know what this means, please enlighten me).
For the continued renovation of the front balcony, I bought this metal birdcage to put some flowers in… I have an irrational hatred of hanging baskets.
… And a really sweet book THIS IS LONDON, (published 1953) which is full of some excellent illustrations by M Sasek, I may have to track down the complete series…. This is San Francisco, Paris, etc.
We also had a really nice chat with the guy who owns BATTLE ANTIQUES & ODDITIES, if you get a chance next time your in Brighton check it out. Alternatively if you’re a Lazy Londoner like me you can peruse through David’s finds at the new shop he plans to open in Bethnal green in a few weeks.
Taking Gardening leave literally…………
Posted in Interiors, Pictures, Style with tags gardening leave on June 10, 2010 by mat bickleyI’m definitely putting my time off to good use, at least I think so…… It’s only been 2 years in the waiting, but work finally gets underway on my bathroom next week, and over the last few days I’ve transformed my fairly shabby open balcony into a secluded outside space. Adding a gate, decking the floor, mounting flower boxes, and painting the wall & railings. All in time to start planting for summer, a few more accessories yet to arrive from ebay, to complement the apple bushels etc….. but it feels like a new place already.
Interior Inspiration No.2
Posted in Interiors, Pictures, Style with tags http://www.flickr.com/photos/invisiblecreature/4624378515/in/photostream/ on June 8, 2010 by mat bickleyThis used to be my ideal kinda working space full of toy clutter (or schnika schnakken as the germans say) and a collection of magazine tears & post cards (this is pre -tumblr blogs). But now with new offices on my mind….. my gardening leave still has 6 weeks to go ! I find that this doesn’t really suit my mind state any more. Does this mean I’m growing up ? I do hope not……………
I Did This No.4
Posted in Colabs, Interiors, Pictures, Style with tags Artomatic, interiors on June 2, 2010 by mat bickleyThose of you that know me, will be aware that I have been trawling through my boxes of old photos and scanning pics, too post on Facebook…. often to my sisters dismay !
It was on this nostalgic journey that I found these images from the ARTOMATIC space I designed and managed, many moons ago in the late 90′s. Looking back at some of my interior decisions, it seems funny to think that many things which are in some respects design cliches now, where seen as radical (and to some inappropriate) back then. Exposed galvanized tubes for lighting tracks, cow shed lamps, museum plinth displays, raw MDF and untreated cardboard packaging/stationary, rubberized floors and table tops, and lets not forget common street paving slabs for the reception floor…….
The french postal sorting units, have since made there way to liberties, and who knows what happened to my Donald Judd inspired paper sample shelves !
A true first, which I am still very proud of to this day, all pictures are modeled by the lovely Tabitha……
