Some Street art











Fitzroy where Gravity and Grace lives works and plays is becoming well known for the quality of its street art. G&G oftens sees ppl photographing the walls as he heads to the supermarket or the gym. Our particular little corner of Fitzroy has old factories and workshops aside the conversions and old workers cottages. there is plenty of surface and I have watched street parties on hot summer nights as walls are covered. As ppl move into there conversions they pay ppl to put it up which is pretty cool. I see most of these pictures everyday just walking about and everyday there is something new to see or discover.




Cheers to guys who posted 'Poo bum' in huge letters on the wall i face everyday as i ride out to work - that you took the time always makes me chuckle as i ride out to the new day.




the pics are from google images

Online store is uploaded

Our online store is finally out there www.gravityandgrace.com.au.

It feels nice to say that the shop is open again. Perhaps this is where we should have started instead of opening a store full of lovely high end pieces just in time for a global financial meltdown.

The struggle as always is to get attention... attention we were just starting to get when our lease ran out. I am twittering to see how that goes in spreading the message.

Our web designer has provided the uplink to the online store. But hold on people Gate 13 who are providing our online store now have to allow access. Watch this space and our online marketing onslaught through the social networks.

best laid plans

The online store has been built and is ready to go as soon as it is uploaded. Our web builder went on a holiday before doing so. Hmm!
Furniture is selling on consignment, and being found by ppl who are emailing for quotes. Sorry the euro has gone up the dollar to the max and we cannot offer our furniture at the price you found on the consignment site.

global recession hits G&G

Gravity and Grace no longer will have a retail presence when the lease on our showroom runs out on January 9th. Fear not however as G&G will maintain an online presence and establish an online lifestyle shop. Watch this space.

We offer a range of smaller, European design brands to the Australian market. Some are long established and some quite recent arrivals, showcasing work by upcoming and established international designers. All these brands share the same passion and enthusiasm that we do for contemporary design allied with functionality and durability. These designs will work equally well within a domestic or commercial setting.

We will offer a range of high quality homewares and accessories from around the word. All share the same design ethos as our furniture. We will continue to offer a service allowing access to the furniture from our suppliers such as David Design and Quodes

Gravity and Grace is a design store in the European mould, aiming to make excellent design accessible to those who appreciate its role in their living and working spaces.

Gravity and Grace: Small store, big ideas.
