View from the Zoo

Introducing our newsest member of the Julien Chung Design family. This lovely giant panda was born this week, weighing three pounds and measuring over 18 inches tall, here in Montreal. Hand made by Majorie at Velvet Moustache, using organic and locally spun cotton and sherpa, and designed by me, the panda sports a large pocket in which resides a bright red velvet heart. This is the first in a new collection of stuffed toys based on my animal designs.

Views of the displays at the Ginza Yrstyle store (clockwise  from top left): notebooks, whale zippered pouch, notecards (top row are mine), ema candies (they taste like grape), greeting cards, and ladybug bag charms.

This is a 108 piece jigsaw puzzle by MacStyle - sandwiched between two sheets of transparent acrylic . It comes with a display stand and measures 6 x 8 inches. You can take it apart anytime and do it over again and again. The finished puzzle sits in a concaved rectangle in the back panel which acts as a table, keeping the pieces from falling to the floor.

Here’s Volume 1 of the MacStyle catalogue, just off the presses! Thanks to all the people at MacStyle who worked hard since last September to bring the products to life.
