Allen Ave. Designs is uber excited to be in Amsterdam, Netherlands! Detweelingwinkel is a business dedicated and inspired by twins Fabian and Levi. Linda Berkel’s store is filled with exclusive and clever twin products of excellent quality. The assortment is renewed regularly and was created with love and attention. We just adore Detw…eelingwinkel….just saying the name makes us smile.

It’s only two days into the work week and the Allen Ave. crew is “TIRED”. Shipped over 400 of the new Cevan bags in the last 48 hrs. and have another 600 on the line to prep and deliver. We might need a few cases of Red Bull to get us to the end of the week.

We didn’t need another reason to love Lego…their new Landmark & Architecture series just reaffirmed our devotion of their genius. Now how do we convince the Lego Group and Adam Reed Tucker to make and add our Allen Ave. Designs robot mascot to the top of the Empire State Building?

Allen Ave. is inspired by almost 700 pages of product “Eye Candy”

From Lego bricks and the Frisbee to door handles and sewing machines, chairs, tables, scooters and aeroplanes, these classics have a timeless quality and have barely changed since their invention.
The latest edition highlights Charles and Ray Eames, Jean Prouvé, Arne Jacobsen, Alvar Aalto and many other designers’ contributions to furniture and appliances for the booming middle classes.

Yes, we are “Industrial Design” groupies at Allen Ave. Designs.

Throughout the years, Allen Ave. Designs has had the pleasure of working with some of the best designers, photographers and artists in the business. But this week, our office is buzzing about Megan Eisenberg. She’s 8 yrs. old, has Autism and creates some of the best illustrations we’ve seen in a long time. Artism by M.E. is fantastic and we are loving her work.

Canada is answering the call from parents who want more than the usual offerings for baby products and brands. Who is answering the challenge?

Say Hello to Modern! Babybot is for the modern minimalist. If you love beautiful, relevant design-inspired products, why should baby products be any different? The masterminds behind this idea are two creative directors with a love of awesome product design, the  know-how to create a killer online shopping experience, and a serious eye for coolness. Is this a new concept? Not even close. Their mantra “Say hello to modern”, is a throwdown because Canada had yet to see it done well.

The new Cevan City bag series is almost ready to launch. The new line is a more compact design than our Metro series but with most of the great features. The City line is insulated, has dual holding sides and great number of pockets and holders. As all our lines, the City will feature great art designed by Allen Ave. Designs graphic artist in California. Check in soon, this is a limited run design series and will sell out quick.
