Mark Parker, CEO of Nike Office Tour

the interwebs are buzzing this morning with these amazing shots of Mark Parker's Office. He's the CEO of Nike and can afford a lot of cool toys and art to put in his office. The pictures are part of an interview with whitewall magazine and worth the read. I just like the eyecandy. This is one of those places you can spend a couple of hours just looking around. Can you spot your favorite toys? I see KAWS, PUSHEAD even some Secret Base. Reminds me a bit of Medicom CEO Ryu Akashi's office

Desktop Before and After: 2005-2009

Here's a fun one. For some reason, I was looking back at my very first posts over five years ago. Interesting trip down nostalgia lane. I sure did write a hell of a lot more back then. And of course I collected slightly different toys too. Above was my desktop circa November 2005 when I wrote this post: What's On Your Desktop?

Fast forward to last year or maybe even the year before when I took this picture of my desktop for Jeremy's now defunct Toycyte blog.

Weekend in LA Part 3 of 3: Collection de Muuuuutoooonnnn!!

After the Gronquist show, Carl was kind enough give me a tour of his home and massive toy collection. I am in awe. Pretty much his entire house is covered in toys or boxes of toys. Every surface area seemed to be jammed pack with toys. What I saw was scary enough, but Carl said that a good portion of his collection wasn't even visible and in boxes!!! And you thought you had a collection....lol... Thanks Carl!!!

Front Room:























One of the bedrooms serves as a dedicated toy room. Essentially all four walls are covered with shelving for toys. So many toys and boxes of toys, that it was hard to move around. I was in heaven.
