Spacemats Flashback!

Last Saturday night, on his way home from two great days in San Francisco—worth it just to see the new Avedon retrospective at SFMOMA—Mick stopped by Billy Shire Fine Arts in Culver City to look at some wonderful new "proto-types" by his good friend Jayme Odgers, LA's very own Silver Surfer.

Chat with the "dapper Brit!"

Check this quick fun interview with Dwell editor Aaron Britt on Dwell's website, then be sure to say hi to Mick when he appears on Aaron's panel at Dwell on Design, at the LA Convention Center, Saturday June 27th at 12.30pm.

Recording Architecture

More praise for Michael Maltzan and his wonderful Inner-City Arts campus. The stark white school with environmental graphics by us is featured in the February 2009 issue of Architectural Record and the March 2009 issue of Abitare.

Favourite Shirts

It was like two of our favorite things—Paul Smith and cycling—riding in on a bicycle built for two. Last night the Paul Smith shop on Melrose opened an exhibition of favourite cycling jerseys from the collections of Sir Smith and Guy Andrews, editor of Rouleur magazine.

Racing In Our Own Backyard

When no one was watching, Mick slipped out the back door and headed up to Solvang to watch the time trial stage of the fourth Tour of California (yes, Mick has been to all four).
