We are very proud that Rafa-kids' beds are featured in KIDS' DESIGN

book by Michelle Galindo released by Swiss publisher Braun.

The volume:

" ... presents a selection of the most innovative designs for children,

from novelties to established classics. It is for all parents who value great design and want to pass it on to their children."

We find it amazing that being only 1,5 years on the market we are standing between such a good companies as Oeuf or Kalon Studios.

There is plenty of other great products for kids in this book but I cannot take pictures of it all :)

If you are interested in kids' design, you can get it here : braun-publishing

and some of the established classics toys....

I have to be honest and say there is not many children orientated e-magazines that I like. Most of them focus on fashion and are not much interested to present some modern ideas to decorate children's room.

The scandinavian Lille Nord magazine is a big exception. It is very inspiring, full with great DIY projects and interesting children's rooms. The bold and minimalist Danish style is so present and speaks to me. I really like the DIY paper masks - you can see all the tutorial inside the magazine here : Lille Nord.

Chloés room is so cosy but with minimalist scandinavian touch ( hay boxes, bobochoses rug on the wall, Japanese balloons) . The credits for this room goes to mimiscircus , so I guess its a room of the daughter of the owner of this very nice children shop. Pity there is no single word about it! I'm a fan of the beautiful we do wood desk, finding its place in the room. Please have a look at all magazine : Lille Nord

Exhibition : Ilustowany elementarz Dizajnu

I wrote about this new up coming book not such a long time ago :

Illustrated Design Manual - 100 things drawn by 25 Polish Illustrators.

What a pleasure to see the exhibition and all the illustrations in real: 100-rzeczy-narysowanych-przez-25-ilustratorow. The place was truly amazing. Old building left unchanged for many years was a perfect scenography. The book is a must have ;-) you can get it here : Wytwornia

outside the museum….

Place : Muzeum Ksiazki Artystycznej - Tymienieckiego 24 - Lodz - Poland

Ciccì Coccò

This is a true beauty! Cicci Cocco is one of the first children's books where photography was used. Maybe that's why Bruno Munari was so pleased to do the captions and rhymes to write for catching photos by Enzo Arnone. It was between the 70's and 80's. I love it so much….

I wish you a great sunny weekend…and many beautiful photo's - children are endless inspiration ;-)

The Cicci Cocco book is available here : Corraini
