Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

If you like well-designed t-shirts you should know about Rumplo. The descrip­tion on their site reads as follows:

Rumplo is a place to find bril­liant artist-designed T-shirts from around the world. Rumplo is also a T-shirt com­mu­nity — a place where you can sub­mit your favorite tees and share them with the world. And Rumplo is a tool that makes it easy to keep track of your favorite t-shirt design­ers, t-shirt shops, and your friends favorite tees.

What’s great about it is that it gath­ers all the best shirts from many dif­fer­ent sites and pools them into one place, allow­ing you to search by color or key word, keep track of your favorites and com­ment on designs. They also send out a bi-weekly newslet­ter that high­lights pop­u­lar tees. The other day week I received a themed ver­sion that sep­a­rated the shirts into dif­fer­ent cat­e­gories, all hav­ing to do with type! I had seen a few of the shirts they included before but some new ones def­i­nitely made it to my wish list. Here’s 10 of my favorites from this week’s type-centric email (links below the photo):

1. It’s Not You It’s Me
2. ABC123 Girl
3. Hel Fucking Vetica
4. I See the World
5. Grandburo Honesty
6. Step Up Your Game
7. Helvetica
8. Fear of a Cooper Black Planet
9. Bean Tee (shouldn’t be a sur­prise I like this one…
10. Ampersand (or this one)
