Peter Lim’s graphic design portfolio is pretty small, but impressive. It’s one of those confusing flash based websites, so you’ll have to click on “Graphic Design”, and choose from the list of projects, then hover over the image and click on that arrow thing that appears to scroll through more photos of the project.

The people of Create/Reject have put together a design book that features the favorite typefaces from 50 of today’s top designers, and 100% percent of the profits goes toward UNICEF’s Myanmar Cyclone Children’s Appeal.
I bought one as soon as I heard about it. It looks like a fun book for type nerds and people […]
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 love these business cards for Andre Kato. They are very bold while staying clean and minimal. It looks like they fit together to form a typographic design on the back. Unfortunately, I don’t read Portuguese so I don’t know much about them, other than how nice they look.
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. […]
I find that when I choose color schemes for my designs I end up falling back to my favorite colors over and over again, so when I need variety I’ve been using Adobe’s Kuler to find color inspiration. I love the way it works with CS3 so easily, and it seems to be the […]
The fantastic design blog September Industry has created, with the help of other contributers, a list of movie titles that have font names worked into them. Maybe it’s because I’m a super nerd, but it’s the funniest thing I have seen on the internet in a long time. Some of my favorites are […]
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.
I really like these business cards for Toby Evans. Not only is it a very nice minimal typographic design, but I like the fact that he designed, screen printed, and cut them out himself. It gives it a very personal yet still professional feel. I might do something like this for myself […]
