Marfa: Camp Design Build

I'm dying to sign up for the Camp Design Build Adventure in Marfa this summer.

 The four-day workshop held on the grounds of El Cosmico is lead by artist/builder Jack Sanders

 From June 6-10 attendees get to learn about design, functionality, and how your environment effects the outcome and ultimately work on a community project benefitting local children

 Register here and hopefully I'll see you there

Dallas: Traffic

I can't figure out which I'm more excited about: Traffic men's and women's clothing stores, the Taschen bookstore or women's boutique TenOverSix, all of them are opening (the Traffic men's store is open now) in the next few weeks as the Joule makes its renovated debut. Finally downtown is being injected with some major energy. 

 Here's a quick peek at Traffic 

 Dying over this men's DSquared jacket. Want it for myself.

 There's a smattering of women's, like this back corner of Rick Owens, a few racks of IRO, and some J Brand denim. There is free valet and the store will also offer home delivery if you can't make it down. Now there's no excuse not to do a little shopping south of Mockingbird.
