Behind the Scenes

A new batch of the Lyrois Companion figure is in the final stages of production.
While the first release was made from vinyl, the new ones are black-opaque acrylic, with a glossy, glass-like appearance on the front-side and a height of 3" --

The very last delivery from the menue in 2008, check this out --
We took the notorious 2D-shapes and finally made them stand up; 3-dimensionally cut in black and white vinyl. The little guys come in 2, 3, 4, and 5 inches height. There are also bigger ones in 5ft serving as store furniture parts and unique clothes hangers.
Made by the fine guys at 30pro.
Happy holidays everybody and a fruitful new year 2009.

We talked about the mural long before. Well, finally, here it is --

... door decals, that is. The beauty about European houses is that antique wooden doors are all included and genuine.
The same techniques we use to cover busses and trucks with ads, pictures and all-over graphics, come back -- en miniature -- in delicate shapes, cut in elegant, glossy foil.
As promised --
These decals stick to most wallpapers and laquered wood, yet the foil is fully removable without leaving any residue.

We love pixels and we love LEGO, in fact, what's the difference between the two anyway? LEGO bricks are the ideal 2D-picture elements.

We've had it before. The White-on-White edition was delicate, subtle -- yet still all Lyrois. In the spirit of continuous refinement and improvement, striving to achieve ultimate perfection, today, we're releasing the most elaborate creation yet --
Because black on black has gotten old somehow.

Sometimes, virtuosity develops in the second row. Uninstructed, apparently disobedient and seemingly undisciplined.

February 7th, 2008 marks the beginning of the Chinese year of the rat.
2-THOUSAND-RAT TWO-THOUSAND-LY-RAT 2008 TWENTY-ZERO-RAT TWENTY-ZERO-LY-RAT 2008
The Rat (Chinese:鼠) was welcomed in ancient times as a protector and bringer of material prosperity. It is the first of the 12-year cycle of animals which appear in the Chinese zodiac related to the Chinese calendar. Rat is associated with aggression, wealth, charm, and order, yet also associated with death, war, the occult, pestilence, and atrocities. The Year of the Rat is associated with the earthly branch symbol 子.

Glossy white shapes on matte white aluminum.
While purple, black, and white are where it's at this year, some prefer to have it one color at a time, with glossy or matte accents respectively, in white on white, or black on black, whichever you like better.
Starting off with white on white, a special edition with unique applications --
Square tiles measuring 10" each.
The regular, three-color editions are coming later this year. Stay tuned for more from the shop.
