Roots X Douglas Coupland Brighten Our Lives

Electric Bonspiel Table, $ 300.00

Click Images for Details

The Electric Bonspiel Table was designed by Douglas Coupland as part of the Roots X Douglas Coupland Collection, as were the scarf and armwarmers.



Douglas Coupland Test Pattern Armwarmers
Were, $ 28.00, Now, $ 19.99


Even though the scarf and armwarmers are made of 100% acrylic, I want them. The design is brilliant, and the price alleviates any worry about whether or not they will pill.

Appearance can trump content.

Color Blocking is Classic

Piet Mondrian made this painting in 1930. Today this image is iconic. Can this piece of art go out of style? A rhetorical question, but I think not.




In the August, 2010 issue of Harper's Bazaar, the Color Blocked is said to be "on the outs".

Store the Color Blocked?
Really?



However, two pages earlier, VIBRANT is touted, with many great examples of color blocking.

Color Blocking Available Fall, 2010

Classics are enduring, and cannot be touched by the vagaries or contradictions of the so-called "fashion elite".
