Great work and experiments from Petra Cortright.

Right now (could get pulled) there is a sample from Gary Hustwit’s documentary Objectified where they talked with Jonathan Ive about the design of Apple products. I have yet to see the film but this clip was very interesting and reminds me why we do what we do…

This morning I came across the mega-load, the gold mine, utopia, a secret treasure of amazing book designs. Unfortunately I am too busy right now to truly enjoy this blog, and will have to spend more time on this later. But you can enjoy these now over here and even on flickr.

Worth checking out this interview with the master Japanese psychedelic artist Keiichi Tanaami. Did you know we have quite a few books featuring his work? Did you also know these books are at some really low prices? See for yourself:

A design and screen printing studio focused on mentoring students to produce excellent work for the benefit of others is the mission of Ambrose and I couldn’t be more excited about what they’re doing. This is what it’s all about in my opinion and I’m stoked there are people out there doing things like this. If you need to do a run of t-shirts soon why not give these guys a call and help others in the process.

Discovered some bizarre, Czech children’s illustrations here.

I’ve really been enjoying the work of Mr. Armstrong lately. He does all kinds of wonderful large scale art deco architectural wonders using a variety of media & techniques. While the site is a little tricky,  just be patient and click on the dates at the top to navigate through the various works. I also really love his drawings as well, definitely need to visit his studio soon.

San Diego is classy, Michael James Armstrong is proof.

Espen Friberg, a piece of Yokoland, appears to have updated. I may be way off with this post. Either way, one of my faves. Add Espen on Flickr as well.
