MAYOR EKEBLAD

I have had an interesting week so far!

My meeting with Josefina at Västfastigheter this Monday was a good start of the week! We talked about my mission and I feel that it will be a mission suitable for me! I started yesterday with my work and it's so much fun - I don't even feel that I am working ;).

Yesterday I met Ingrid at Innotiimi. Another inspiring and really friendly person, working with tools and methods for interaction. We agreed that we would cooperate in the future and it feels exciting!

Today I met AnnaLena, who is a real cute and wonderful artist! I feel that we will work together in more than one project! First of all I will sell her paintings and things on the "Home Fair 2010" in Vänersborg in April. I'm sure many of you out there will LOVE her things! I think everything she makes is eye-catching! See my other blog - http://foggymountaindesign.blogspot.com - to learn more about AnnaLena.
She has her studio in Linnéstaden in Gothenburg. Check out - http://mayorekeblad.blogspot.com
Thank you AnnaLena for today!

That's all for now! Hope you're all doing good.

FURNITURE FAIR 2010

Next week I'm off to Stockholm to visit "Furniture Fair 2010". I'm really looking forward to some fun and inspiring days! Hopefully my old friend A will join me to the fair and we can explore all the new furnitures, carpets, lamps...etc. together.

On Monday I also have an exciting meeting...so I guess next week will be a better week than this one :)!

Have a nice weekend - I will get back to you with inspirational photos from the Furniture fair.

By the way - please see my other blog - www.foggymountaindesign.blogspot.com
In the other blog I talk more about my special interest in design and interior design.

WORK WORK WORK

I haven't forgot about my dear blog, I've just been quite busy the last week.

There is a lot of exciting things going on and I feel that this might lead to something inspiring in the near future. I have had a lot of plans of starting my own company. I'm still planning and thinking about it. It's scary and fun at the same time.

Last Friday there was a party at Bergab, a company where I have been the interior architect in October/November 2009. The company felt a need for someone to help them out, when their premises where renewed. Since I have a contact there, they knew who I was and wanted me to do the job! It was very exciting. I'm glad to tell you that the result was almost as good as I hoped it would be! Off course you're always the worst critic yourself - but everyone was very pleased with the result!

Next week I'm meeting another person, who might want some help with a restaurant design in Stockholm. So there are some projects coming in...Also I'm helping my parents with their own dream project on the Island of Tjörn.

Besides this I'm again working for HoF Arkitekter in Öxnered. Right now sketching a new house model for a customer. So finally there is a lot of work to be done.
In the meantime I'm keeping contact with people interested in user participation in the design process and hoping that there will be an opening in that direction soon.

Have a nice and snowy day!
