Picture Systems

Picture Systems features the work of Zacahriah Ohora, a Pennsylvania-based illustrator. I absolutely love his graphic, colorful style, especially when it comes to his gig posters. If you like what you see, check out his shop for available prints.

Naturella

Naturella, a new release from You Work for Them, is “a collection of natural and organic elements from the garden.” I could definitely see this coming in handy.

Card Candy

I am loving these bold and simple cards by byrd & bleeker. The combination of neon inks and kraft paper—not to mention the fun, playful messages—is just so fresh and modern. Perfect.

McCraw’s Confections

This project by Craig Skinner is right up my alley. A rebranding of McCraw’s Confections required the designers to update the brand without losing sight of their small town Texas roots. The new playful identity was then applied to packaging,…

AirMax1-a-Day

Last week I tweeted about this awesome self-initiated project by Matt Stevens. Using an illustration of a Nike Air Max 1 sneaker, he created a series of illustrations inspired by the styles of his favorite artists, designers and illustrators. I…

Marypat Pastry Shop

Wallnut Studio always does such a great job of styling their work sample shots. And this newish project for Marypat Pastry Shop is a perfect example. From the piled up muffins to the artwork to the environment, their attention to…

Martino&Jaña: Induse

Awhile ago I posted about Martino&Jaña‘s beautifully hand-lettered posters for the Guimarães Jazz 2009 event. So I was happy to see a couple of new-to-me projects in their portfolio when I checked back in with them. This project, in contrast…

LoucheLab

LoucheLab, the etsy shop of Brooklyn-based couple Ned and Aya, makes me wish I could go on a shopping spree and pick up one of everything. As you can see below, their unique, colorful, hand-painted ceramics are insanely gorgeous.

LA×NYC

Paper Cut, a studio of two French graphic designers living in Brooklyn, recently took a road trip to move from LA to NYC. Being the visual people that they are, they created an informational map outlining the 14 day trip.…
