behind 100% Design

hi everyone, how are you? we are very busy here, getting ready for the 100% Design show on the 22nd. we are all burning the candle at both ends! today we have a little behind-the-scenes look at what we're doing in preparation. we hope you enjoy reading it!
we've been busy organizing all of our new products for the show, like wallpaper, ceramics and cushions. we're happy to say that we're well on our way to being ready...finally! we have some great news coming up later on in the year that we've been busy preparing for, which we hope you will stay tuned for. it's all very exciting but we're not allowed to say a word about it- so you will have to be patient with us! but in the meantime, have a look at what's been going on...



our whole team are busy working on making our stand ready. izumi, our newest team addition and a very talented dressmaker, has been preparing our tablecloth that will be a beautiful focal point for our stand. it's amazing watching the whole thing come to fruition, and i hope you will love it as much as we already do. kei, our hard-working designer: he is so talented that we have also asked him to collaborate with us on a mug that we will be including in our new ceramics range. ellie, our lovely assistant, has been helping us by making sammy the sausage dogs for our stand and press packs. here's our little board full of ideas for the new range. if you think it looks busy now, just wait until a week before the show- it'll be overflowing!



i, as your trusty blogger and erstwhile 'public relations' first lady (i'm being a bit big headed, aren't i!), have been busy updating the 100% Design website with our newest press release and product descriptions. i've also been making sure that brochures, leaflets and cards are being printed. what a busy time! i'm enjoying every minute, along with every sip of tea that fuels me! i hope you can stay tuned to our twitter and facebook feeds, which are showing little snippets of what's going on in our studio. check out the cup designs we've been sampling!



and of course, yukari has been making sure that all of her beautiful designs are being made into the products that we want to sell. she's working hard every day! right now she's putting the finishing touches on the ceramics range that we're going to be bringing out at 100% Design (as you can see above, it's a very precise process). she's also been working hard at making wall panels and ensuring that the labels for our new wallpaper are being printed off nicely. she's not getting much sleep these days, but i think that she has a few other things that are keeping her going- as you can see below...



maybe we'll all be resorting to that soon!

as usual you can contact us by emailing me at kimika@yukarisweeneydesign.com, commenting on this blog post, by visiting our facebook, twitter or website, and of course our 100% Design page. with so many ways of getting in touch with us, you have no excuse! we'll be updating with photos and small pieces of information in the run up to the show, and would love for you to see what we're doing. until next time!
