What I'd give to live in Ryantown

Rob Ryan is so bloody fantastic he's even got his own shop in London, selling all his fabulous creations. The shop is only open Saturday and Sunday, Mon-Fri requires an appointment. I'm going to London in 2 days and feel it's only appropriate that I pay a visit, it's for my dissertation after all (yeah right I'd be going regardless). Seriously though, look at that shop and try telling me that's not a designer/artist's heaven. Being a penniless student means I may not be able to pick something up with the larger price tag, but maybe a card or something, either way, Rob Ryan!

Also, here are just some of the beautiful items available to purchase if a piece of original artwork isn't what you're after/like me your budget's a bit tighter. It's an interesting point that consumers seem to enjoy the handmade look to commercial products like this - although these images have obviously been digitised to create the final product they were originally handmade and I think that's what really sells them to the audience. They too can have a small piece of this huge artists artwork right in their home, maybe they like to think that the same amount of craftsmanship went into their particular item? Is the item more appreciated than a traditional version of it because of the handmade design? It's all in the details and Ryan certainly doesn't skimp on them.
