No Comments on Utopia Goods’ magical Christmas pop-up shop

Selling their handcrafted textiles and accessories that are inspired by native flora and fauna (in a completely tasteful way!), Utopia Goods will be holding a Christmas pop-up shop in Sydney’s Surry Hills.

Opening the doors to their studio for a magical, festive-themed two weeks of shopping, you will be able to get your hands on their locally designed home furnishings, tableware, limited-edition bedding and bags.

Perfect for gifting, the 100% cotton and linen designs pay tribute to Australia’s unique environment, with the prints and patterns creating easy-layering and occasionally clashing.

Complimentary gift-wrapping and icy refreshments will be flowing and every customer will go into the draw to win a door prize valued at $350!

The Christmas pop-up runs Monday-to-Friday from 9 December to Christmas Eve at 67/61 Marlborough Street, Surry Hills.

Bringing their online store to life, Ten Things will be holding a pop-up shop this festive season in Sydney’s BRANCH3D gallery and shop space.

“It’s been two years since our first Sydney pop-up so we’re incredibly excited to be doing it all again,” explains owner Libby Carr. “The festivity and bustle of December makes it the perfect time of year and we love having the opportunity to meet customers and engage with our community.”

With everyone’s favourite products for sale, there will be Japanese enamel teapots from Noda Horo, designer clocks from Japan, the playful textiles of Kauniste, Finland and the colourful prints of Charley Harper.

Big supporters of handmade products and independent design, look out for scarves from Israeli textile designer Lee Coren and hand-carved wooden utensils from Warang Wayan, Bali.

And for something new, Ten Things are excited to have selected some beautiful ceramics especially for the pop-up, including pieces from Sydney’s It’s a Public Holiday and Melbourne’s Dot & Co.

The Ten Things pop-up will run from 2-to-20 December, Wednesday-to-Sunday, and will offer the perfect finding spot for that unique Christmas gift.

No Comments on Très chic French homewares pop-up in Surry Hills this weekend

When Aaron Cameron followed his heart to Paris after meeting his French husband in Sydney, he never imagined he’d also fall in love with the city. But he did, quickly! So combining his love of design with his new love of Paris, he formed Studio Ombre, a homewares and interior design studio (with offices in Paris and Sydney) focusing on great design and exceptional quality.

With an ultra-modern collection of bright cushions and chic art prints (normally available strictly online), this weekend — for one week only — Studio Ombre will be hosting a pop-up shop in Sydney.

Transforming Blank Space Gallery in Surry Hills into a magasin éphémère (that’s French for pop-up shop) Studio Ombre’s new range will bring their Parisian design aesthetic to the inner city with their 100% French-made homewares.

With four graphic cushion designs, each comes in two sizes and four colourways, and is made from 100% polished cotton percale woven in France. Constructed by well paid, experienced artisans who work in excellent conditions, the highest standards are maintained at each stage of the manufacturing process, ensuring true French quality.

Also on offer are three art print designs, in one size and two-to-four colourways. Printed on 100% cotton 308gms archival rag paper in Paris using UV resident inks, each comes with a stamped certificate of authenticity.

Studio Ombre’s first ever pop-up shop at Blank Space Gallery runs from (this Saturday) 14-to-20 November. Join them for a glass of champagne and a macaron on launch day from 4-to-6pm, or visit throughout the week from 10am-to-6pm.

The Big Shift Design Competition is an exciting new concept developed to encourage creativity and innovation in the design of functional interiors using sustainable materials and products. And you could win $3,000 cash!

In 2013 the competition will focus on sustainability in retail design and the emergence of the ‘Pop Up’ shop phenomenon. Using Xanita X-Board materials (lightweight boards made from upcycled, post-consumer cellulose fibre waste) professional designers are asked to apply their creativity to two categories:

The Lend Lease Pop Up Kiosk – using X-Board to create a design for multiple types of services and merchandise within a 4m long x 3m wide footprint. The design must be easily dismantled and reassembled, be easily adaptable and display brand effectively.

1st Prize $2000 – 2nd Prize $1000

Pop Up Shop – using X-Board to create a design for multiple types of services and merchandise within a 8m wide x 10m long footprint. The design must be easily dismantled and reassembled, be easily adaptable and display brand effectively.

1st Prize $3000 – 2nd Prize $1000

The 1st and 2nd prize-winning entries will be built by Oxford Communications Group Pty Ltd and displayed during designEx in Melbourne in May. There will also be an opportunity for winners to pitch their designs to Lend Lease for possible use in their 16 retail centres around Australia.

Enter online at www.thebigshiftdesigncomp.com. The competition closes on Tuesday 30 April 2013, with winners announced at an exclusive presentation on Thursday 30 May 2013 at designEx in Melbourne.

Nest Designs opens online pop-up store

My good friend and stylist Emma Blomfield at Nest Designs has just opened a fab online pop-up store full of treasures. I guess the idea would be to buy people Christmas presents from it but I want everything for myself!

I may or may not have already nabbed myself one of these uber cute ring dishes. I keep it by the kitchen sink so I always know where I’ve left my engagement ring when I take it off to do cleaning (all those heart-in-mouth panic moments were getting too much).
