This feature is inspired by Dick & Dora's "Square Eye's" brooch... retro funk!
I would certainly sit myself in front of that box any day!

It seems that retro is making a come back, fast and furious and with such a kitschy vengeance. I dig this. It's not my sort of design-line, but I dig what is being created and more so, reinvented.Check out their blog - http://dickanddora.blogspot.com
The appreciation of patterned vinyl (shout out to Loz and Dinny's vinyl coin purses in which I am a proud owner of one!) and the re-discovered love for shag piles, brings the photographs to life, of my mother in her early 20's - the house parties and crazy furniture pictured. Need I say anymore - let alone about the hairstyles!

Oh... and yes, my household didn't quite escape the return of retro - we had a gorgeous green (modern) shag pile, but due to the big black labrador dog that we have, Mr Jazz, sneaking into the house and taking quite a liking to the "shag" (haha!) the mod-shag has now been tipped, my money is on the Launceston Council Tip... hmmph!
