design sponge rocks my world


Design Sponge

Design Sponge is a design site written by (prolific) Brooklyn-based writer, Grace Bonney. It’s pretty and hip. And it’s pretty hip. It’s one of those sites you can check in on daily, consistently getting lost in its quality and its quantity; a zippy wealth of inspiration.

If ever forced, I would be hard pressed to chose between my love of artful design and culinary expression. So last week I was thrilled to learn that d*s has added a new weekly column titled ‘In the kitchen with…..’. Every Friday features a different artist and their chosen recipe, artfully presented through their own photos or drawings. Brilliant idea! It’s like…..chocolate and peanut butter! Not only is it a chance to check out inspiring looking recipes, it's also a chance to discover artists and their work. Camilla Engman (week 1) and Julia Rothman (week 2) are both incredibly accomplished talents I might otherwise not have heard about.
