She was very glad with my present! Now it has already arrived in Amsterdam. I am curious what she will do with it?

Every time I looked at my orange gift I had to smile. Because of the object but also because of the project. I don't want to miss it after this week but my girlfriend has come to visit me and I promised that the object would make a trip to the netherlands. I have to say goodbye!

This object I saw first. It was a beauty, bery feminine and because a girlfriend of mine is plumber I would like to give it to her. It was not for sale I now know the meaning of this thing. It is a watercup and it takes care that you don't get a bad smell But I got an other object with me,

Pipe and other friends

Thought I'd share the pipe with its new friends before I send it off to a new home. I am hoping it will write to me to let me know how its doing, I'm sending it to my friend who orchid sat for me a while ago and encouraged betty the orchid to send us a postcard so I have high hopes.

Unconcealed pipework

So when two architects move in together and renovate their first home it tends to become a mission of concealing pipework and slick surfaces. We have one piece of pipework which isn't concealed and it is stainless steel so I placed the flocked pipe in the bathroom and said nothing about it. 3 hours later shreaks of laughter came from the bathroom and the boy I lived with was amused by the new member of our household. We particularly like the way it feels so maybe if more pipework was flocked we wouldn't go to such lengths to hide it. On it's last day in the flat I gathered together some buddies for it which I also love to live with - mainly because they remind me not to take this design stuff too seriously all the time!
