I don’t feature enough interactive work here, so I was excited when Josh Rhode, who operates under the name Kult House, sent over his portfolio, which features quite a few amazing interactive experiences. This particular project was created at R/GA…
To promote an upcoming AIGA Salt Lake City event, The Mandate Press teamed up with Dan Christofferson to create a companion poster and postcard set. The event (which I wish I could have attended myself) was entitled “Full Bleed, The…
The latest product from Brian Everett is this fun pair of tea towels, featuring an intricate cityscape. You can purchase either the night (warm gray and white on beige) or day (lime green on cream) versions right here.
Trilon is a huge new type family from Terminal Design, which was created in response to the complaint of a designer friend that hates almost every sans serif font. The resulting family includes 10 weights in 4 widths plus italics,…
I found this treasure trove of vintage inspiration very randomly while doing research for a new project, and I’m so glad I did. The Rumsey Collection is a huge collection of historical maps—and that really is an understatement. The 150,000…
I’ve just stumbled upon Elsa Mora’s most recent project: Miniature Artist Books, and I am every bit as fascinated with her new venture. I think anything in miniature makes it feel a little bit more special and magical; and these…
I’m loving these playful, colorful cards by Sydney-based The Lowercase. The set includes three cards with a simple message that’s taken to a whole new level through smart production techniques. Each card features punctuation windows and a pop-out mouth, to…
I know we most often show the finished product around here, but I am equally—if not more so—inspired by the process. Take these type sketches by Matt Braun of Brain vs. Braun, for example. I love that you can very…
Today I present to you Becca Stadtlander, a talented artist who I wish I discovered sooner. There seems to be a real sense of history in much of her work, and her varied use of patterns and textures is something…
There is some lovely calligraphy in the portfolio of Sergey Shapiro.
Johnny Chang, a recent grad of the Art Center College of Design, has lots of great identity projects in his portfolio. However, I was really impressed by this sophisticated and minimal packaging redesign for Seventh Generation.
Unfortunately there isn’t much context provided for Atelier Punkt‘s identity, by Montreal-based studio Feed; though from what I gather it is a unique art and design space in the city. I was instantly drawn to the bold black, white and…
This playful and sweet identity for Lecca Lecca, a couture children’s clothing line, was designed by DHNN, a Buenos Aires-based studio. I love that the design was inspired by Italian lollipops and sweet treats.
It wouldn’t be Valentine’s Day without at least one Valentine post, so I thought I’d feature these sweet and modern designs by Mike Smith. Mike created this set of four cards—one for each day of Valentine’s weekend—for his significant other…
Up There is a lovely short documentary about the art of hand-painted advertising. This process amazes me; and I feel incredibly lucky that I’m able to witness some of the last examples of the art form in action here in…
For her son’s first birthday party, Eunice of Hello Lucky created this adorable circus-themed invitation. I am loving the playful illustrations, and what a great color palette.
These interesting patterns were created by Iconblast, aka Victor Ortiz, for Nine West.
I’m shocked it took me so long to discover All the Buildings in New York, a project by James Gulliver Hancock where he—you guessed it—will attempt to draw all the buildings in New York in one year. The project started…
