Language Arts

This set of wall décor consists of 8 words in raised black script:

 "Do what you love / Love what you do." 

Arrange them in any direction, any pattern, any order, in multiple rooms - whatever suits your mood. As long as you love doing it, you've got the idea. 

The black stamped metal words are on raised mounts, yielding a "3D" effect.


This unique wall clock expresses its numerals through an intriguing combination of language and type, creating an intriguing chronometer for travelers and linguists alike. 

Henry Higgins would have loved it.


Like to cuddle in the kitchen? 

100% cotton dishtowel features bold, modern graphics against a solid white background. 

This towel is the perfect gift for that special someone who happens to be "wild at heart." 



Today's imponderable: why have a thought outside the box when you can have a Lamp-in-a-Box? Hmm, it's going to take a trip to the oracle at The Afternoon to deconstruct that one. Meanwhile, you can enjoy this ultra-hip and tres chic journey into modern lighting. Of course, these lamps are meant to be displayed outside of their heavy duty, recyclable, reusable carrying boxes, and they sport terrific prints on their shades. This lamp features block letters that declare: Highlighted / Enlightened / Illuminated (shade design by Clive Piercy). 

Perfect for the college student and/or the confirmed philosopher.
