Paris!!!

Yay for being in Paris! I've been here a couple of times before so have tried hard to avoid the cliches. Sorry, no Eiffel Tower pics here! Never fear though, I have found some much cooler things to share...This is the shop in the lobby of 'Tokyo Eat' a modern art gallery slash bar, slash restaurant, slash bookshop, slash all round trendy place, located conveniently next to the Modern Art Gallery of Paris. I often find that gallery shops are as exciting, if not more exciting than the galleries themselves. This was no disappointment with fantastic designs such as rings made from crayons and vinyl flower hair combs some of which were displayed in fridges. Very effective!

This is a one of around 20 images displayed in the Palais Royal beside the Louvre advertising artisans. This one displays a rainbow of wool samples. I like the contrast of colours against the stone.

And a cool sculpture in the Palais Royal. How cool are the reflections?

We also stumbled upon this fantastic exhibition called Carton Plein! where 13 architectural artists have worked with cardboard to create the most fantastic pieces! The website doesn't have much info but I'm going to scan in the brochure when I have a chance because it is well worth sharing.

That's it for now! :)
