You may have heard a little rumour that we are designing the entrance lobby for Decorex 2011! Very exciting….and made even more so by the fact that Philip Colbert has agreed to work with us to add a fashion element to our surrealist dreamscape. And who better let’s face it. His last collection featured the most dramatic take on lobster-wear I have ever seen. Makes Wallis’s dress look positively old fashioned.
I have to confess we are ALWAYS up for a lobster. As you can see here we even worked them into our table-scapes for the Cartier Windsor Polo decor a few summers ago.
GaGa’s on the bandwagon too….as my colleague Ethan reminds me.
And my office sports a few hidden darlings - just for good luck.
Recently spotted in Brno….I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a sweet and suitable lobster cartouche as this restaurant wields. It puts the Red Lobster to shame.
And do NOT miss the fact that they have been worked in 3D grisailles into the window surrounds. Subtle, brilliant, and suitable…I do believe even Elsie might approve.
While I confess I have not used it, I think Georgia Horton’s quadrille wallpaper is very clever indeed.

…And then they taste so good paired with champagne too! You’ve gotta love yourself some lobster!
that is a grand paper from Quadrille, I have to say GAGA pales in comparison to Isabella Blow. With Isabella -she wore the crustacean-while with LG the lobster wears her. pgt
We were at a party
His ear lobe fell in the deep
Someone reached in and grabbed it
It was a rock lobster
We were at the beach
Everybody had matching towels
Somebody went under a dock
And there they saw a rock
It wasn’t a rock
It was a rock lobster
Motion in the ocean
His air hose broke
Lots of trouble
Lots of bubble
He was in a jam
S’in a giant clam
Down, down
Underneath the waves
Mermaids wavin’
Wavin’ to mermen
Wavin’ sea fans
Sea horses sailin’
Dolphins wailin’
Red snappers snappin’
Clam shells clappin’
Muscles flexin’
Flippers flippin’
Down, down
Let’s rock!
Boy’s in bikinis
Girls in surfboards
Everybody’s rockin’
Everybody’s fruggin’
Twistin’ ’round the fire
Havin’ fun
Bakin’ potatoes
Bakin’ in the sun
Put on your noseguard
Put on the lifeguard
Pass the tanning butter
Here comes a stingray
There goes a manta-ray
In walked a jelly fish
There goes a dogfish
Chased by a catfish
In flew a sea robin
Watch out for that piranha
There goes a narwhale
HERE COMES A BIKINI WHALE!
