Tom Evangelidis
Tom Evangelidis grew up along the northern beaches of Sydney,
Australia. He made his debut as a fashion photographer in
London in the early 1990s before returning to Sydney to work in
the television and theatre industries.
Seven years ago, Evangelidis shifted his focus to Interior Design
and lifestyle photography, simultaneously travelling the world
to pursue his passion for architecture. The result was three
exhibitions in Sydney titled Prague Architectural Portraits (1999),
Casa Particular (2003) and Lost in Hanoi (2004), which document
the diversity of architectural styles in the Czech Republic, Cuba
and Vietnam.
"Faade" is the culmination of all three exhibitions plus four
additional photographic journeys through Russia, Romania,
Turkey and Bulgaria, which were taken over a 10-year period.
It documents an eclectic mix of architectural eras from the gothic
beauty of the 13th century to the ornate decadence of the 18th
century and the austere classicism of the Communist era in the
20th Prague, Bucharest, Hanoi, St Petersburg, Sofia, Istanbul and
Havana a reflection of the photographers fascination with the
toll time reeks on glorious architectural movements throughout
history. Although the cities tell their own tales of turmoil and
change, for Evangelidis the precise location of each photograph
is incidental. He refrains from revealing too much about where
each building stands, and he dodges clichd settings that might
belong on a postcard.

As a photographer, Evangelidis
is fascinated by the evolution of
architecture and its intricate links
with politics, culture and class.
He approaches major public
installations with the same respect
as humble, ramshackle homes
because he understands they are
equally important in documenting
the progression.
Evangelidis is currently based in
Sydney, where he continues to
work as a photographer and runs
Blackeye Gallery in Darlinghurst.

"Inspired by
a full moon...
...I was in search for the perfect image to send to a friend
and share that feeling of connectedness.
My search led me to an intoxicating image by Russian artist
Tatiana Kozakova. The surrealism sent me into a spin, I was
lost in an alternate reality of winged bird-fish humans that
ride on weightless sea-saws, sipping on red wine through
straws, catching fish under a starlit night whilst UFO's play
in the distance.
Her works depict creatures and magical lands, brought to
life through rich brooding colours and vivid imagination.
"We're the Wild Things" is a series of musings over artists
who are inspired by animals and creatures. Here we feature
just three of The Wild Things that have in turn inspired us
on our blog. We take a trip around the world from Russia to
Germany and over to Peru."

Aside from having one of the longest and coolest names I've
ever seen, Ana Teresa Barboza takes embroidery out
of the hands of your grandmother and into the land
of baddass! Using thread and mixed medium,
her images ooze metaphors and meaning.
There is a dark beauty to this Wild Thing
that draws you in and makes you stop
and think.
Bodies become canvases and animals
draw attention to our intricate and
fragile human nature.

I had a pretty strong idea of how my label would be branded from day
one. I guess because the label is so synonymous with myself. With
a graphic designer husband we were able to create the branding
together right back at the start. Packaging was very important for
me. A precious, handmade piece of jewellery deserves a special
box to sit in. I picked up a tiny balsa wood box from a shop back
in England way way back before I even started university. I kept it
around for years whilst searching and searching until I finally found
something similar. This formed the basis of my packaging, which is
a series of small, balsa wood boxes with a natural calico lining.

"I felt compelled to try
something new and out
of my comfort zone."
How did you get started in Interior Design?
67/
When I first started the blog, I had no idea why or what I was doing in so
many ways. There was no plan or strategy in place, and I had to learn
everything along the way. At the same time, I felt compelled to try something
new and out of my comfort zone. Id been collecting images, inspiration and
all kinds of information during the 15 odd years of working as a designer,
and at first I thought the blog was going be a good way to catalogue my
research and share it with others. I never had any expectations from the blog
and I certainly had no idea that people would actually read it! But I guess if
Im 100% honest, I think I was secretly hoping that the blog would somehow
show me the way to my utopia, but I had NO IDEA how this was going to
happen. It was like walking into a room full of thick fog and hoping Id end up
somewhere good, but I couldnt even see how big that room was, what was
in it, where I was going I literally just had to take one step at a time and
trust myself and the process.
On a personal level, I used to be petrified of speaking publicly and putting
myself out there just like so many of us. My decision to start blogging was
a conscious effort to get over myself and to face my demons in order to
become a better person and a better designer. So far, my decision to conquer
one of my biggest fears has definitely been my best one.
