BROOKLYN LOVE




Everything I seem to be inspired by this week ends up being from Brooklyn, great interior shot...Brooklyn, street style photo... Brooklyn, a new store... well you get the idea. So here are a few of my favorite Brooklyn things....... just wish I could show you a photo of myself there, fingers crossed, maybe one day!!!!!

Loft living.

This is the studio of tattoo artist Scott Campbell, isn't it a great space.



This book "Brooklyn Modern" would have to be one of my all time favorite design books. Great building and interior photos and some interesting insights into the people who live there.
 
 
This old butcher shop is being converted into a living space






I have a few bicycle paintings by Brooklyn based artist Tahlia Lempert. These are two of mine.She does some really great work, I found her a couple of years ago on Etsy

 How adorable is this dog ...... and he just happens to live in Brooklyn.

 


Peace and quite in the city.
