The Mr Rogers of Craft, Todd Oldham’s Kid Made Modern
- by Tracy
We heart, heart, heart us some Todd Oldham! How cute was he in NEW YORK MAGAZINE last week? He was promoting his new book, Kid Made Modern. We love hate his bushy beard but how it ages our Toddy! Beard or nor beard Todd Oldham will always be a sweet hunk of modern man. His boyish charm and gentle smile wins us over every time. He’s the Mr. Rogers crafting.
Totally original, totally simple, totally Todd Oldham. The book has projects inspired by mid-century designers and artists such as Charles and Ray Eames, Marimekko, Alexander Girard and Dorothy Draper.
