wedding planning #1- dream venue

Arthouse, Austin, TX

so besides the busy school life that has been consuming me for the last 3 years..
i have recently started planning for my wedding..


as an architect/designer, i was imagining the wedding would be modern, layback, and in the middle of the city. while searching for venues, i recalled seeing this little gem done by new york based firm LTL (lewis.tsurumaki.lewis architects)- arthouse, Austin, TX. the museum is located right in the heart of downtown austin and has a wonderful roofdeck. imagine the gorgeous tx summer/fall sunset sky as the backdrop and being surrounded by the skyline of the city (even a view to the capital!), and i thought this has to be it!


sadly upon inquiry, there's quite a bit of restriction with planning a wedding at this venue. it's not a regular wedding site and therefore a lot of the permits and amenities that you might need they don't have.

oh well. but hey it's still great design! :)

something's brewing...

mm..i know it's been a while since i updated

and there's a super long list of things i've been wanting to blog..

but here! architectural jewlery!!!

all that i can say is that i'm totally inspired and in love with these pieces...:)

this 3d-printed ring by nervous system is my favorite! 

which i proudly own! :)

pretty masking tapes~

japanese color/patterned masking tape

again a late post of something i found a long while ago...

saw them at some boutique stores on abbot kinney, venice, ca before the holidays and compulsively bought 3 packs! so all the christmas gifts were wrapped up with these tapes and i made a stack of v. 2.0 of my wishing crane greeting cards! (to be coming on my etsy shop soon)

they are a bit pricy for masking tapes, but oh they are so pretty arent they??
