There’s nothing I don’t love about the design of these books—their compact size, the colors, their common design elements and, this goes without saying, the patterns. The topics are also, of course, extremely pertinent for anyone in business. First seen…
Somehow I managed to get on Mike Perry’s mailing list—snail mail, not email. I have no idea how it happened, but hey, I’m not complaining. So the other day I received a new promo piece from him: The Landscape Between…
I love the simplicity of these type tees from Print Liberation. If I was having a bad day and saw someone walking down the street in one these, it would snap me out of it (at least momentarily). Fun and…
Denis Olenik is one of the designers I follow on Behance. Based out of Belarus, he does some really great logo and identity work. I also really love his presentation. See below for a few examples, and check out his…
Delicious packaging for the Bubble Roome. I especially like that they emphasize each product’s pattern by shooting each one on the same background.
Love the new If You Could prints for August, designed by Jason Munn and Rob Ryan. In case you haven’t heard of the series, it is a monthly print release from London-based studio, HudsonBec. The two artists—one established and one…
Photo from FotografeRx’s photostream So sorry about the lack of posts the last couple of days. I took an unexpected sick day yesterday and today I’m headed up to Newport, Rhode Island. So I leave you with a couple of…
“Playful Type presents an inspiring collection of illustrative fonts and hand-made typography created from a variety of cutting-edge approaches and indicates current development in font design.” This new release from Gestalten is definitely going on the wish list. It won’t…
This may be old news, but I love this wallpaper designed by Mike Perry for Studio Nommo. It looks amazing in that dining room.
Grady McFerrin’s portfolio is overflowing with beautiful work. But I am especially loving his wine labels, with their gorgeous hand-drawn type. Makes me want to go pick up a couple bottles just to have those labels on display. Click here…
If you haven’t heard of Blanket Magazine, it is a free, bi-monthly, themed PDF publication that features artists and designers and their work. Each issue is full of inspiration and always introduces me to at least a few new artists.…
I came across these really fun hand-printed wallpaper designs, by Grow House, Grow!, in a recent issue of Time Out New York. I love that each of the designs has it’s own personality and story, as seen in the product…
I found these eco-friendly totes in the latest issue of Readymade. Handmade from banners used to promote previous Wexner Center exhibitions, all of the bags are one-of-a-kind, and a pretty good deal at $40 each. The Wexner Center for the…
Not sure how long this feature has been present on J. Crew’s site, but it is new to me. They have this small interactive section which lets you see some of the inspiration behind the new fall collection. I am…
New ASG edition print from Art School Girl for August, by Molly Carter. In case you haven’t heard of ASG editions, they produce a new limited edition letterpress print by a different artist every month. I wish there was a…
I know it’s not Wednesday but I couldn’t resist. Ampersand Tee, $26 from House Industries
I’ve had fun pulling color palettes out of found imagery the couple of times I’ve done so—it allows me to get a tiny glimpse into the process. So I think I’ll make this a regular (or semi-regular) post. This week…
I read about this new book from Mike Perry yesterday on Treasuring, and immediately placed an order. “Over & Over” follows the same format, only with hand-drawn patterns. Knowing how amazing his first book is (since I own a copy)…
