Christmas Wishlist - David Bromley
23rd December, 2010
David Bromley's Christmas Wishlist - itemised below.
When I first asked David Bromley for his ideal Christmas wishlist, he responded with a truly beautiful list of all non-material things - love and friends and happiness and all those incredible things which we often forget to stop and truly appreciate. It was such a beautiful read and perfectly articulated how many of us feel about Christmas I think... but of course being a sickenly materialistic design blogger I had to INSIST on asking him to add some actual physical things you can BUY! Sorry! How predictable :)
David responded graciously with some stunning material additions... but the basis of his list is still very much ephemeral - good company, sanity and more TIME to do everything! I can totally sympathise with that one! I hope Santa is listening.
David Bromley's Christmas wishlist - from the top down :
1. A giant steel Hotel sign from Capocchi.
2. A pair of Pantanetti shoes from John Rizzo.
3. Patchwork over dyed rug from Loom.
4. A big boat in glass box from Tarlo & Graham (ps. This is not the actual boat! When I went in to photograph, I think David had already bought it! This one is smaller but super cute too!)
5. Any paintings by Colin Pennock at Scott Livesy Gallery.
6. my sanity.
7. good surf / swell at Byron.
8. my friends around me.
9. everyone to forgive me for being a pain all year.
10. more time.
Thankyou so much to very busy David B for sharing his list, and once again to PR dynamo Esther at The Project Agency for facilitating!
Thank you Lucy. Where we would be without The Design Files! Here is to a fabulous Christmas and year ahead. x
