What's this? What's happening? What's going on?
As a teenage boy I walked a rather unconventional educational path from home economics to child care. I vividly remember the course in which I got to draw little floor plans for living spaces and put together mood boards. As a grownup I would occasionally attempt to build a house out of bits of cardboard,... Continue Reading →
Flicking through Flickr for interior design inspiration and, more importantly, for clues that would point me into the direction of furniture I hadn't seen yet, I came across an image that referred to a brand named "Lagom" which in turn took me to an event I wasn't familiar with. It's called The Seasons Story and... Continue Reading →
Last spring I was asked by a friend to decorate a small guesthouse which he keeps available for one of his friends who has an on-again / off-again relationship with Second Life. As it has been a while since we've last seen her, my friend asked me to make some moderate changes to the place,... Continue Reading →

A while ago I was asked by a friend to decorate a small guesthouse which he keeps available for one of his friends who tends to occasionally disappear from SL for a while and then pop up again. There wasn't a particular briefing apart from that this time around I would be creating something for... Continue Reading →
The American Cancer Society runs a fundraising organisation named Relay For Life. Each year, more than 5,000 RFL events take place in over twenty countries and as it turns out, in Second Life as well. 'The Inspired Dreamwalkers' present the RFL Destination Hope Hunt. The proceeds of this grid-wide hunt will be donated entirely to RFL... Continue Reading →
Apart from the eternal nomads among us, most people need a place to call home in "First Life". As human beings often are creatures of habit, it is hardly surprising that many of us feel that same need in Second Life. There are several routes you can take to achieve this. There's a thriving rental market in... Continue Reading →
