Flora Fauna
A designer friend of mine just sent out an email announcing the launch of his studio’s new site, florafaunaworld.com. I love the work, especially his posters (I also love most of the bands they are for). Pretty cool stuff, kinda makes me want to take off to Minneapolis (hmm ok, not really, but almost).
Mimi Leung
I love artist, Mimi Leung’s work. It’s just fun. This one reminds me of my cat Nochie when he sees us get the FURminator out.
Summer at MoMA
I keep spotting these beautiful MoMA ads in the subway. The campaign appropriates brighly colored information graphics to promote their summer offerings. I think this poster is espcially beautiful.
O Group Biz Cards
Check out my brand new business cards! Sweet. Designed by my Design Director at The O Group, Ken Rothermich
Danielle on Damsel
Danielle Rizzolo (My painter friend who I always find myself blogging about) was just featured on the blog Damsel. Check out the video of her studio. I am told it was hard to keep a straight face while filming it but I think it is really cute. Congrats Dan!
Help I'm Bored
Help Remedies is a super cool brand that solve simple health issues with simple healthcare products (bandaids, medicin, etc). Their packaging is amazing and their website is great. If I wasn’t already in love with the brand, their Help, I’m bored page really sealed the deal.

Check out the Latest Lacoste Finishline Window display that I designed. It is in stores now. This is a picture from a mall in Denver that my sister took for me. Thanks Steph!
Corporate Animal Love
Corporations do a ton of fucked up things to the environment but they are also in a position to do some great things to help make up for it (a little). I have recently encountered two really interesting ways companies are doing this.
Save Your Logo creates an opportunity for companies represented by a plant or animal in their logo to contribute to the conservation of that species. Lacoste is the...
Super Fantastic Porfolio Site
This is my new favorite Flash portfolio site. Maybe it is a bit flashy but it works so well and maybe I am a sucker for some cheap flash tricks… so what? I love the minimal approch and the color palete but the thing that sets the site apart is the way the navigation becomes a trail of where you came from and that you can activate a menu that is behind the most forward most screen. My love of...
Your Condo Is Ugly
I love this sticker that I walk by every morning on the way to the train. Ohh the perils of Williamsburg gentrification.
Very Cool Wedding Invitation
After returning from my cousin’s wedding this past weekend and while I am currently designing an invitation for my friends’ wedding, I thought this post would be appropriate. I love non-traditional invites. I especially love this typographic approach to tell this couple’s dating saga. Check it out full size here. The construction of the RSVP post card is also very clever. Ohh I...
