Lions & Vultures

I love this image. I haven’t had a minute to post it, but it’s definitely been stuck in my head. Incredibly talented German designer Katrin Schacke created it for a beautiful editorial spread, and even though I can’t quite tell what it’s about (language barrier), I love it.

It’s fresh and quirky but uses recognizable elements and tells a unique story, and I want to know more about it. Or, maybe it’s just about having more plants in your office building, which is also something I can completely get behind.

This type project by Mia Dörwald rules. Actually, all of her typography work rules, but this is the one that stuck out to me the most. The imagery makes the whole thing feel like a high fashion something, but really it’s all melty and weird. It’s perfect.

The shapes, lines, and figures that Skip Hursh conjures up are just bonkers great. He’s also a solid contributor at The Fox Is Black, he has an online store with 1 million great prints in it, he makes really rad animated gifs, and his middle name is apparently Dolphin. For some people that might be a little too much awesome, but I think he pulls it off wonderfully.

These are some of the graphics I prepared for a recent music exchange. The theme was loyalty, the songs came together nicely, and the little zine I put together with visuals for certain tracks looked really rad when it was printed. If you want to download it, you can! Here.

Dessau is a fun, weird display typeface by Javier Fuentes. He mocked it up as billboards wishing Boston well (scroll to the bottom), and I love it. Seeing something like these around town would constantly keep me in an excellent mood.
