My god, this week has been madness, particularly today.
It started with a client meeting at 0800, then a meeting with a house manufacturer at 1000, then an interview with P3, then a meeting with a website called snow fish, then a video with the bristish council at 1500 then a final meeting with someone who wants us to appear at an event at 1600.
I do not mind saying I am a little förvirad.
Yesterday was Göteborg, rather lovely actually as I flew down with Emma Sjöberg who was looking particularly lovely. She really proves that beauty has nothing to do with age. Also met our sound man and friend Ola who was on the same flight, going down to film Granfäjden, how very knäpp people are. I really do admire their energy but not their common sense.
Paris was fun but huge amounts of work, met Jim Grundström whilst there, always a pleasure as he is an original. Will be interesting to see what has been ordered, should not be too much of a surprise as I was sober. Was invited this year as the organisers wanted the opinion of someone who had some knowledge of the swedish interior design market. They obviously confused me with someone else.
Down in Göteborg yesterday making a big presentation for Coffee by George which we have designed and are now up grading to the new concept. Was actually rather wonderful as the sun was shining. First time I have ever seen it happen there.
T was in London all yesterday looking for new products for our olive oil shop. As with the design shop we always need to keep re-inventing ourselves and so have to be on the ball. Needless to say T has not shown me what he has found other than the cheese he has bought from Harrods to make me feel better for buying himself 2 pairs of shoes….one of them very pointy.
There are 2 things I am certain about with T, he will either not be able to walk up stairs as his shoes are too long or he will poke out his eye putting them on…..he is like Pooter…..rather a clutz.
That is it from here MEN…………..T and I have been thinking that there are many people who have interior design problems and question and who need good sound advice and that we might try and help with some tips. Obviously we will not be able to help everyone but perhaps we could take 2 or 3 of the worst problems every week and try and show people how things can be solved. Obviously we will try and give some positive suggestions but we will also need to have a bit of a laugh at some of the things people have done and how their homes look. As I am sure you will understand everything will be done in the best possible taste and we will not be too critical……..in your dreams. Obviously you will be able to send in pictures and if your home is gorgeous and your friends home dreadful you can send their pictures and not your own. However…….maybe someone else will send images of your home without you knowing.
The mother of this guy had obviously had enough as he is a gris.
Please let us know what you think and if it would be A) helpful B) fun or C) Pure revenge.
S & T
