Zinc Details - San Francisco

Zinc Details has two great stores in San Fran - 1905 Fillmore and 2410 California. The store is like a kaleidoscope of colour and products. We love Marimekko selection and even went back for a second look – you get spend days in Zinc!

Doe - San Francisco

While in San Fransico last week we popped in on Doe (629A Haight Street). Not only do they have the cutest toadstool window display they've got a great range of clothes, kids, cards and little artworks. Their online store makes their great collection accessible for all.

Pillow Pillow Pillow - San Fran

In New York we also came across Pillow Pillow Pillow - they do THE cutest range of dog illustrated totes and pillows. One of the more popular designs is the 'weener dog'. They even have a casting call link on their site for new doggy talent - as yet they don't feature a Kelpie so Alfie might be in luck!

Perch! Brooklyn, NY

In New York we met Amy Adams of Perch! She designs and makes these beautiful ceramic vessels in Brooklyn. Our favorites included the bird feeder (below), vases and bowls. Check out her site.

Pool art book

Polli was featured in the Pool art book thanks to the creative work of Phil Rose... thanks baby!

Pool Trade Show

Polli was well received at the Pool Trade Show, Las Vegas. As designers this was our first time at a fashion show and were surprised by the creativity on the floor both with the booths and the venue – nonstop music, live t-shirt screen printing and free tattoos (of the permanent kind!).

Pool Trade Show, LV

We have hit Las Vegas! The Pool Trade Show opens here tomorrow and runs through to Wednesday. Check out their site for some great videos on the show. We'll post some booth photos after set up today.
