Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

I look for­ward to the Studio on Fire let­ter­press cal­en­dar every year, and this year’s ver­sion does not dis­ap­point. For 2012, they’ve employed the stel­lar illus­tra­tion skills of Missy Austin, Brian Gunderson, Dipped in Acid, Jolby and Tuesday Bassen to bring to life the theme of Positive Apocalypse. And the cho­sen color palette is right up my alley; I can’t wait for it to brighten up my desk in a cou­ple of months.

It’s true that I’m always a fan — I’m pretty sure I place my order within 60 sec­onds of spot­ting the post each year — but, in my opin­ion, this iter­a­tion clearly takes the cake. If you’re inter­ested, you can read more about the process and design details on Beast Pieces and pick one up for your­self in the shop.
