Ambiguous Horse online shop
The Ambiguous Horse of Pip Carroll's many-tentacled design agency is thankfully more ambiguous than Khartoum, the prize stallion that meets an unhappy end in The Godfather, but less ambiguous than the slack-jawed, talky-talky Mr Ed and those prancy, saccharine Little Ponies.Ambiguous Horse, in fact, is named after the optical illusion of its equine-silhouette logo, but all you need to know is that it's an agency that helps facilitate the awesomeness of many Melbourne designers by selling their wares online and helping out with the tricky stuff artisans are oft too busy to do.
So if Alice Euphemia should sell out of your favourite knuckle sandwich from This Charming Man, or you can't for the life of you track down the perfect nautical macramé necklace to match your new white nautical ensemble, or you know a woodgrain and ivory-cut Minuet Horse Broochfrom Lost in the Woods is the perfect way to show your affections tothat special thoroughbred gal, click through. Ambiguous Horse also does other cool stuff, like staging temporary Don't Sweat Shops, and mounting the Bicycle Film Festival. They might even help you write a grant application if you ask really nicely.

About
FourThousand is a subcultural guide to Brisbane, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Brisbane writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FourThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
