Loving the poster designs of Ross Bruggink.



Great shirts by Make Believe (especially loving the anchor design). Purchase them here.

The current iteration of Grain & Gram, an online “Gentleman’s Journal”, interests me both in subject and in design. The look and feel is sophisticated and elegant, bringing a classic print publication sensibility to the web.
And recently, they featured a profile on Nick Sambrato of the print shop, Mama’s Sauce. I’ve worked with them a few times and they always do an excellent job. But we are located about 1000 miles away from each other, so it was great to get an inside look into their shop. They’ve also got a new website on the way, which looks like it’ll be extremely easy to use—check out the sneak peek right here.


This album of behind the scenes shots on Facebook is quite the teaser for Kate Spade’s newest campaign.

Looking forward to see more of Lookwork, Ben Pieratt’s new visual RSS reader and image-bookmarking service, when it launches in a few months.
So glad someone was able to get a good picture of this billboard, which is actually an incredible advertisement for Inception. The billboard changes every few months or so but I’ve never seen such an ingenious use of the format.
The World Cup is over as of yesterday, but that doesn’t mean we can’t still enjoy this poster by David Watson. Sales of the poster will benefit Soccer Aid and UNICEF.
“Pimp your macbook” with these fun stickers.
Here’s another fun one-a-day project, Lukes Beard’s Lyric a Day.
