A Sneak Peek!


I'm counting the days until the High Point Furniture Market. I will be leaving in four days, and the excitement and anticipation are building and building. I can't wait to get there and breathe the air of design and innovation!

The photo above is a little sneak peek of my latest seating design being produced by LAZAR. I feel so fortunate to be working with such an amazing client. Their fingers are on the pulse, and they know how to build seating that makes you just want to dive in and melt right into it!

They did an amazing job! I can't wait to unveil it with them in High Point. The official opening is October 22nd. If you're going to the show, you're gonna want to stop and chillax on this new LOUNGE. I hope to see you there :-)

Pumped up kicks!

Click to order!

Yo! Converse is letting us PUMP UP our own kicks!

I can remember buying my first pair of Chuck Taylor's when I was a kid. What an exciting day! Most of my friends had them in either black or white. My first pair was white. This simple design has endured a lifetime, and It's been copied by so many!


Click to order

Now Converse has opened a whole new world to all of us! We can now design our own custom pair of Chuck Taylor's. How cool is that!?!? In a matter of minutes, I designed the shoes you see in this post. I then clicked and ordered them. I'm now like a kid waiting for Santa Clause to arrive!

In 4 to 6 weeks I'll be wearing my very own custom designed Kicks! What a brilliant idea by Converse. You peeps Rock!

One of the coolest things about it is, you can put your own mark on the side or back. This is so much fun! If we could only do this with shirts and jeans too! How cool would that be?!
Click to order
So to all the other kids with the pumped up kicks...you better run...better run...because Converse has now created a very cool monster! You can order my designs by clicking the links above, or go to the Converse website and design your own!

The Trinity Collective


In my last post I introduced you to three amazing artist/designers named Donovan Swick, Kelly Jones, and Brian Davis. Together they now have launched The Trinity Collective, and they've set their sites on furniture. And just as I promised...here's a look at what they're doing...


Imagine these three minds focusing their awesome talents in one common direction. They debuted their creations at Shane's Collection in High Point.

Check this rad stuff out...







How cool is this?!?!


















Each piece is an awesome piece of art! So cool. So inspiring.

These three people are decor Rawkstars! They're blasting through all the boundaries!

I can't wait to see what they do next...

Take a d-tour that Rawx!


"Three artists...one vision"


I would like to introduce you to three amaZing artists to watch. Three design Rockstarz that have come together to create a huge new force that blasts raw art into home and lifestyle! You gotta meet them, follow them, and try to hang onto their ride into a very cool and artistic future!

First up...meet Donovan... 

Donovan Swick

"We as artists make stuff out of other pre existing stuff."

"We are but facets of that diamond! We are in a New Renaissance today. Not because of me...but because of LOVE. Argue if you will. Deny it if you choose. Scoff at the presentation if you disagree. Protest the nature of the ART if you desire. Truth is truth! There it is!"


Donovan Swick is a super talented artist and designer of interiors, furniture, fashion, jewelry, and so much more. He's also an amazing show producer and Rockstar stylist! I felt an instant connection and bond with him when we met. He's an inspiration that I believe will be a force in the future of the Home Furnishings Industry. He's raw, driven, and so naturally talented. This dude has an undying vision and energy that is going to "Rawk" us all, and it will be so fun to watch!



Donovan! I want this ^ jacket man!!


Yeah, this one too!






There's "cool"...then there is Donovan.


Now it's time to meet Kelly...
.
Kelly Jones
Kelly Jones is another raw rawk'n artist and designer. She's also the Chainmaille Goddess! She weaves metal into fabric one loop at a time to create some of the coolest pieces of art for the body, the home, and everything else she can get her hands on. What's she creates is simply amazing, unique, and provocative! Look at some of her work...

.







We're talk'n extraordinary talent here! When I met Kelly she told me that she's brand new to Home Furnishings, and when you see what she brings to the industry you just won't believe your eyes!


Pure awesomeness!


Third but no-way least...meet artist extraordinaire Brian Davis...
.
Brian Davis


Brian's art totally blew me away! When I first met him and saw his work, I became and instant fan for life! This dude has got super human artistic talent. And, he's a genuinely nice person. To give you and idea...when I walked into Shane's Collection in High Point where Trinity Collective was showing their stuff, I asked Brian if he had a business card. He didn't have any left, but he immediately ran several blocks away to get more. He's a completely down to earth dude.
.

Since there are no words to truly describe how awesome his work is...just feast your eyes on these...







His work leaves me speechless!








So now you've met three of the most talented artists on the planet!
.
And, if you're wondering how all of this translates to the future of the Home Furnishings Industry?
.

Stay tuned for my next post to learn more, and prepare to be inspired!
.

More to come...don't miss it!
