Weekend




Saturday is the perfect day to catch up on those mags that have fallen through the letterbox during the week, flick through a book and cook something up in the kitchen...


Print and Pattern is the book of the fabulous blog created by Bowie Style. Lov Li have been lucky enough to be featured in this book showcasing the best talent in the surface design world. Below you can see our Lov Li designs in print....





Venezia by Tessa Kiros is the latest addition to her collection of truly inspirational and beautifully designed cookbooks. In this book Tessa travels through the city of Venice, breathing in it's atmosphere and letting it's bejewelled past and dark alleyways fuel her imagination. The book is a mixture of recipes, quirky photography and her diary jottings
