Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

For the month of August, a series of guests will be fill­ing in on DWL with daily posts. Today’s posts come to you from Brad Surcey of Zeus Jones. For more from Brad, be sure to fol­low him on Dribbble and Twitter. Enjoy!

There is cer­tainly no short­age of hand­made script let­ter­ing these days, but few peo­ple do it as well as James T. Edmondson. I first noticed his work a cou­ple of weeks ago, when a del­uge of hand drawn logos and mono­grams began to dom­i­nate my Pinterest feed. After some inves­ti­ga­tion, I noticed it was all com­ing from the same guy.

It appears that James (cre­ator of Duke, Edmondsans, Mission Script and Lavanderia) cur­rently attends California College of the Arts and is set to grad­u­ate some­time next year. Most of his cur­rent work is made up of either self-initiated projects or things he’s done for friends. If his ini­tial out­put is any indi­ca­tion, I would say he is off to one hell of a good start.
