Illustrated map by Neryl Walker – for my Design*Sponge guest posts this week!!Oh my goodness. It’s a big week in Design Files land. First, it’s my birthday today! I have been awfully spoilt by my sweet fella… He made me an absolutely beautiful piece of furniture – AND he bought me not one but TWO stunning prints from my favourite Galerie Montmartre! Is that not just ridiculously over the top?? Sheesh.
BUT that is not where the excitement stops, dear readers! This week Grace from the ever-fabulous Design*Sponge has invited me to be her guest blogger! It is a dream come true :)
I think due to the time difference, my first post over on D*S will not pop up until later in the day Melbourne-time… but I have included a little sneak peek here because I just can’t contain my enthusiasm! I have asked some of my favourite local illustrators and artists to help contribute to my D*S guest posts – each day I will introduce D*S readers to a different pocket of Melbourne, seen through the eyes of each of these talented Melburnians. Today’s post showcases the work of East st. Kilda-based illustrator Neryl Walker. How AMAZING is her illustrated map?? She’s so clever. Please please please pop over to D*S later today to see the full post!
ps) Don’t worry, I will be blogging here as usual all week… it’s gonna get busy!
