I am happy to share this photoshoot I did for the brand new webshop Petit Hercule. At www.petithercule.be you can find a wonderful selection of essentials for your little one, including these beautiful toys, baby clothing, bed linen, decoration and much more. Every piece is carefully selected by Lotte De Swaef, architect and mom of two toddlers. For all the moms-to-be, you can also create a birth list at Petit Hercule! To celebrate the launch of the shop, we give away one of these cute little robots! To participate, you just have to send an email to hello@thefreshlight.com to let us know what’s your favorite item from the shop. A winner will be randomly picked next friday! Good luck!
Brass Love
March 9, 2015
In the interior and design trends, brass and copper have stolen the show for a few years now. I am totally happy with that, but for me it is important that a design is more than just a trend. Those adorable objects are all handmade in Japan and the product of a tradition. The diamond shaped paperweight and the chopstick rests are the result of a collaboration between designer Oji Masanori and the 114-year old Japanese foundry Futagami. The massive brass is raw textured. The spoon is been hand shaped by Reiko Fujimoto within a small studio in Osaka. I am totally in love with the hammered texture. This objects celebrate the idea of imperfection with the brass material finding new patina and character as it ages… I enjoy this lovely livingware everyday, and I am sure we will be using them for many years!
Tea Time
January 29, 2015
Something more about my tea scene… Even if you are not a tea drinker, you might definitely fall in love with this handmade japanese copper tea can by SyuRo. Over time it will gracefully change color and age as the metal oxidizes. The wooden spoon is handmade too. Today I have chosen a white tea from Paper and Tea: Shangri-La. Pure and clear, made from leafs that have the least oxidation. The high amount of antioxidants makes it the healthiest tea you can drink!
