Winter is Coming

March 8, 2013 — Leave a comment

I have to admit, I’m a little bit of a nerd. Last summer I started reading the Game of Thrones books, and as a result, am a huge fan of the HBO series. This morning I ran across this poster series created by HBO for the upcoming season. Such beautiful art direction. March 31st can’t get here soon enough.

This is a rather bizarre video for the band Beach House. Directed by Eric Wareheim.

Today the Times published a photographic view of domestic violence. It’s poignent and real. Some images may be hard to look at but it’s something that none of us should turn a blind eye to.

Hand Drawn Type With a Twist

February 12, 2013 — 3 Comments

I guess this is a theme today – daily illustration projects.

Daily Dishonesty is a blog by New York designer Lauren Hom. She puts her own spin on hand drawn type by illustrating little white lies. Enjoy.

Windows of New York

February 12, 2013 — 2 Comments

Windows of New York is a project by graphic designer José Guizar. Such a simple idea and so beautifully executed. Check out José’s other work as well. I’m especially a fan of his Lucha Libre beer.

Public Signage

December 12, 2012 — 4 Comments

This must have been some copywriter’s dream job – by the guys over at Partners+Napier.

While I’m not saying that I’d ever steal public signage, I’d like to have one of these in my home.

Hand Lettered Song Lyrics

September 21, 2012 — 8 Comments

Leandro Senna is an art director and graphic designer who happens to be very good at hand lettering. Inspired by Bob Dylan´s Subterranean Homesick Blues video, these are some of the hand lettered song lyrics he created. Check out the video to see the whole sequence. Pretty cool.

This is a fun little time lapse video of San Diego. Enjoy.

Hello everyone, I’ve been traveling abroad for the past month, and sadly too busy to post. My apologies. I’m back and thought it fitting to start off with a post about an airline. Enjoy.

Anna Kövecses, in colaboration with Boulder, Colorado based Victors and Spoils put together this theoretical redesign for struggling American Airlines. It’s main focus is to convey an aura of safety. An approach that seems so intuitive, yet I’ve never seen it done before. Read more about the project, and the controversial agency that commissioned the work on fastcodesigns.com.

I love this band. “Heavy is as Heavy Does” is the new single from Portland based band, Menomena.
