Artist: Prints

Robert Murdock is CCO at Method here in San Francisco. His design moniker is Post-Mammal , which in his words is "based on the notion that humans are always evolving, and are always looking for what's next — essentially what's beyond human." Robert's work is incredible. I could easily post every image from each of his projects but I wanted to show the variety of the work he does so you could get a sense of how multifaceted he is. One of those choice designers who combines rock-solid formal design chops with an extremely [...]

So many good looking and well dressed artists out there. It's hard to choose, but this one really caught my eye. The ninth style award goes to... The Good Natured! The Good Natured is Sarah Mcintosh and plays what you can call electropop. She's very talented and has released two ep's, Warriors and Your body is a machine. What I truly like about her is her quirky style, from old vintage dresses en blouses to very colourful tops and cardigans. I'm also madly in love with her hair, it suits [...]

Clever print. You can get this as a print or a T-Shirt, both available at Threadless .

Barcelona based Folch Studio kicks off the second half of this week with some wonderfully restrained graphics. They also provide a few studio shots - something I wish every studio was required to do (to satisfy my own curiosity). I'm painting my ceiling charcoal as soon as I find my paintbrush. Make sure to check out these guy's rather massive portfolio . Permalink | Comment On This Post | Tweet This Post | Add to [...]

Incredibly, the entire movie has been condensed down to the single sheet seen below. Artist Chuck Forsman is selling prints of it on his website if you want to grab yourself one. $20 for an 11 x 17 print. Not too shabby. [via Geek Tyrant ]

Many of us remember watching Saved by the Bell after school, and wishing we had the amazing style they did. Even if it was ten years after the show stopped airing, and you saw a re-run. Oversized t-shirts, large prints layered with other prints, skinny leg jeans, many components that we see in today's fashion trends. Who would have guessed that in nearly twenty years Saved By The Bell's pop culture style would be 'in' again. Thankfully, it is. Take for example Lisa from Saved By The Bell's dress below, [...]

B ernard Barry is one of the principal visual designers at Facebook. A pretty sweet job I'd say. Imagine having a guarantee that your work would always reach millions of people. Barry handles the pressure nicely; his work is exceptional. If you just briefly glance at his site, you might not notice the absurd amount of detail that goes into each of his projects. The scale of each is often staggering . Barry also has cataloged his entire collection of books and movies . Absolutely worth checking out if you're on the search for some [...]

Brock Davis has a very fun Make Something Cool Everyday collection up on his site. The stylistic variety of the work, in addition to the ever present and nuanced humor, makes for a very interesting collection. Very impressive. A lot of designers undertake such a project, and I'm always fascinated to observe how their creativity evolves over the course of the project. I'm especially intrigued by the work in the beginning (that probably was the catalyst for the endeavor ), and the work at the end (when they've theoretically dialed in their process). [...]

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fypi6d AJB8E I always see those huge drums of ink sitting around when I'm on press for a print job but it rarely occurs to me to ponder where it comes from. Well thanks to The Printing Ink Company, now we know. It's amazing the time and the attention to detail they put into each step. Beautifully shot; the whole thing really makes me appreciate printed materials all the more. Written and produced by Ian Daffern | Directed and Edited by Tate Young Video [...]

A Collection A Day is a blog by Lisa Congdon chronicling her daily obsession with assorted ephemera. I've always held onto little scraps and tokens like these, but none are as good as the stuff Congdon has on display. I often find this kind of stuff even more inspirational than straight-forward design, particularly the airline tags.

Shailesh has some excellent examples of various matchboxes up on his flickr . I forgot where I found this link but I'm going to take a wild guess and say it's from Dave over at Grain Edit , who has a very impressive matchbox collection of his own.

Pascal Tremblay aka Makeshift is a graphic designer based in Montreal. I am usually not a fan of anything resembling postmodernism, but Pascal's eye for color and composition make him an excpetion for me. I am not sure how Pascal renders his images, but they sure look hand done, at least for some of the watercolor-like textures. I also noticed you can most of his work here , sometimes at really massive sizes (yet still affordable). Permalink | Comment On This Post (2) [...]

I believe this is a catalog for Aries Kits , a company which manufactured modular synthesizer kits during the late 702s in Massachusetts. I love how the limitations imposed by 19702s printing technology actually fostered good design in a lot of cases. I wonder if the designer put much thought into the layout of top portion; it looks very purpose-driven. That "Explore Sound" wire-frame logo was probably super high tech at the time. I forgot where I found that image, any ideas? (Tineye was down at the time of this posting) [...]

Everyday Magazine is a magazine that focuses on the behind the scenes of creative folks. I find the design to be quite relaxing and the inner pages to be nicely laid out. The project was created by Mikael Floysand as an assignment at Westerdals School of Communication.

Dwell has an excellent piece on Swiss design shop Geigy. The in house agency has such a rich portfolio of beautiful work, most for the medical industry. I particularly enjoy the packaging work.
