Design, SKAGGS 2009-12-15T18:46:11+00:00 http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/327/ http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/327/#When:18:21:09Z I recently got a new camera (Canon S90) and while I’m no expert (and admittedly a beginner), I’ve taken on a whole new appreciation for light and the art of photography. While looking through iphoto I noticed a common theme – the light…THE LIGHT!! Honestly, I can’t take a lot of credit because on most of the flicks I’ve literally gone – “point-shoot-move on”, but I will say that the S90 is flippin’ amazing when it comes to picking up light. Below are some flicks I’ve taken over the last 2 months.

Between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day, the Environmental Protection Agency estimates that Americans will generate five million tons of household waste – twenty-five percent more than the usual four million. 2009-12-01T00:09:24+00:00 http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/321/ http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/321/#When:22:26:50Z SKAGGS Focus 2009-11-24T22:26:50+00:00 http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/322/ http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/322/#When:21:41:30Z According to a recent study by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Trust for America’s Health, two-thirds of all Americans are overweight or obese. But as the health care debate continues in Washington, members of the so-called “fat pride” community are fighting what they see as a national prejudice against fat people. 2009-11-24T21:41:30+00:00 http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/319/ http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/319/#When:16:30:46Z On Wednesday, Sam and I sashayed over to Bergdorf Goodman to represent the SKAGGS team at the launch of new fragrance collection Maison Francis Kurkdjian Paris hosted by KVD NYC . 2009-11-20T16:30:46+00:00 http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/318/ http://www.skaggsdesign.com/index.php/blog/view/318/#When:15:57:56Z I had the pleasure of interviewing France born - Brooklyn based designer - Sophie Theallet back in Feburary for the Celeste Duquesne website.

Their decision to shift toward an electricity-based model was born out of the 2008 Driving Sustainability Conference in Reykjavik, where pioneers in the movement to achieve environmentally sustainable transportation decided that electricity proved more efficient than hydrogen. The recent 2009 Conference saw continued support for electric energy, along with a new emphasis on liquefied bio-fuels. Green 2009-11-11T20:51:52+00:00
