Iconic Inspirations – Bright.Bazaar
May 5th, 2011It is my honor to introduce Will from Bright.Bazaar as a contributor to my weekly series on Iconic Inspirations.
Without further ado…
Hello! I’m Will from Bright.Bazaar and it’s a delight to be guest blogging for Melanie today about some of the lifestyle things I find inspiring.
1. Who is your favourite icon?
Without a shadow of a doubt it has to be Jonathan Adler. I love his brave use of colour, bold patterns and quirky accessories. He dresses really well, too, which is always a bonus!
2. What do you think makes something iconic?
Given my penchant for colour I’m always pleased to see people experimented and expressing themselves with colours that appeal to them, whether it be in the way they dress, or how they decorate their homes. I always smile when I see a pop of brights in someone’s socks as I commute to work in the mornings. I guess colour just makes me happy!
3. Out of all the places you have travelled, which location have you found most inspiring, and why?
When I was a kid we used to go on family holidays to Greece and so I’ve always felt a strong connection with the country and its breathtakingly beautiful islands. The azure blue of the sea and the crisp, fresh white of the buildings plays to my love of colour blocking. I love the food, climate and relaxed way of life, too.
4. What is your idea of iconic style?
Classic blues and stripes feel iconic to me because season after season they always look great and never become tired.
5. If you had to make a meal that best represents you, what would you make?
It would have to be breakfast because I love mornings and the wonderful feeling of a day stretching out ahead of you. It’s a time of day that is full of hope, promise and calm.
Thanks so much for having me, Melanie!
Will, Bright.Bazaar.
