The making of an Eames Shell Chair
December 9, 2008 – 6:55 pm
I loved this video of how an Eames shell chair is built. It’s one of those “Picture Picture” type factory process films that always seem to mesmerize me.

Polaroid photography of found retro stripes by Grant Hamilton
November 3, 2008 – 1:55 pm
Photographer Grant Hamilton takes a variety of nice photos, but the ones that really caught my eye were the Polaroid shots of found retro stripes. You can buy large prints of some of these at his etsy shop. They would also make great color scheme inspiration for any retro inspired design.
Words flowing in and out of wall
October 15, 2008 – 10:04 pm
I thought this creative use of typography in architecture was breathtaking. It’s looks like some sort of poem, and the words seem to dip into the surface of the wall and emerge in a flowing rhythm. Typophile user ngocngo noticed this on a new building and I’m glad he took the time to [...]

September 15, 2008 – 11:01 am
I’m so excited for my favorite season of the year, and this reusable canvas bag featuring a typographic design of autumn foods got me even more in the mood. It was designed by Shaz Madani (click on “Taste the Seasons to see more) and the idea was to encourage grocery shoppers to buy foods [...]

Abstract Letraset typographic design experiments
July 15, 2008 – 10:08 pm
Graphic designer Lander Janssens, of Grapplica (warning: his site resizes your window), has shared a wonderful collection of abstract typographic designs made with Letraset. I am amazed at how balanced and uncontrived these designs look, which is a lot harder to achieve in this type of work than you might think. I also [...]
Beautiful Polaroid typography photography set
July 8, 2008 – 4:16 pm
Designer/Photographer Douglas Wilson has just uploaded a large Flickr set featuring Polaroid photos of found typography. It consists of mostly hand drawn type on signs, some printed type, and a nature photos thrown in occasionally to provide some nice interludes. They are scanned in sets of four, which makes for some interesting compositions.
