I love the little trend of setting up those tiny railroad set figures to look like they are interacting with the real world and then taking photos of them. I always dreamed of encountering mini people in my house after reading books like The Borrowers, and these photos evoke that sense of longing for […]
I love these designs made by Flickr user “Anita J+”. She used books to form the shapes of trees and flowers for these environmental awareness posters. The rest of her stuff is top notch as well, although I can’t find an official website besides her Flickr account.
I found some nice design work by Richard Perez. Looks like his site is under construction for now, but you can view his stuff on his Flickr account for now. I really love the way he experiments with shapes and colors.
I saw this vintage children’s book at a thrift store called, I Want to be a Coal Miner. I thought that was a strange aspiration for a child and I had to thumb through it. It turns out that although the story is boring and borderline propagandistic, the illustration style was amazing. […]

“Click”, by Colin O’Dowd, is a mirror shaped like a Polaroid picture. I think it’s a pretty nifty product for people that are into photography. It would be a fun mirror for those that use compact mirrors, but I would also like it just so that I could photograph it reflecting different scenes. […]
Whitney Shaw does some sweet illustration and design. I’m especially impressed by her personal business card that she illustrated and had pressed by The Mandate Press.

Moontree Letterpress has a great blog about the designs that they make. I love this card design of a guinea pig on a scooter. It’s fun to see silly designs printed in such an elegant way. It’s for sale on Etsy. Be sure to check out their more “serious” work on […]
Oomingmak Design Company makes some fantastic gig poster designs. I love the vintage color palette and the type work is spot on.
