Minutes at the Salk Institute & a visit to BLENDS/CARVE Costa Mesa

October 16, 2009

Salk Institute San Diego

This is the Salk Institute in La Jolla California. The facility was built in honor of Jonas Salk, a famed medical researcher known for his development of the polio vaccine. I was able to take a few photos earlier today right before they closed down visiting hours. Didn’t get any good angles, but I’ll definitely be back with a better camera and maybe even a sunset.

Designed and completed between 1959 and 1964 by architect, Louis Kahn.

Shortly after, I made my way north for a staff meeting at BLENDS/CARVE Costa Mesa. Some collaborative projects coming soon with Converse and Ralph Lauren’s RRL Collection. Our Converse One Star will be released on October 24th. More details to be announced soon.

Speaking of RRL, CARVE has just received a new shipment of some of their Fall/Winter Collection. Items included a series of oxford shirts (selvedge gussets!), chinos, cords and their coveted 03B-SF denim jeans. Should be on shelves any minute.
