New American
Everyone’s talking about it, so let’s dive in – American Airlines has left behind the iconic Vignelli logo for an entirely new look. Check out their launch site for the video on what’s different (skip to like 2:30 for the good stuff). And then look at what we have here: New Graphic Eagle FullContinue reading “New American”
There Just Isn’t
A friend of mine asked me to make this for her. One of her all-time favorite movies is the Wizard of Oz, so I can absolutely see why she would want this quote. It’s interesting how much this quote means to me. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I like the Wizard of Oz asContinue reading “There Just Isn’t”
Favorites from Pinterest
If you haven’t been over to the Pinterest boards in a while, here’s a little refresher on some of my favorite pins over the last few months. On the Design board, which is where I put anything design related from furniture design, to print and digital pieces, I’ve got 2 lovelies. I loveContinue reading “Favorites from Pinterest”
Flag Day – A Design History Snippet
Below is a really interesting post I ran across about the design of the U.S. flag, and it’s a history I’ve never heard before. You usually get the Betsy Ross story and the cute little cartoon of her sewing in a rocking chair, but I think this is MUCH more interesting. Enjoy! You can readContinue reading “Flag Day – A Design History Snippet”

The Secret Art of Dr. Seuss
I ran across this article on Brain Pickings about a book published in 1995 called “The Secret Art of Dr. Seuss.” I was really amazed to see that his style and aesthetic were so much a part of him that he could make this scene look like it was edited out of One Fish TwoContinue reading “The Secret Art of Dr. Seuss”
Beautiful.Witty.Hipster
You probably know I love vintage stuff. So is it really a surprise that this made me gasp a little? I mean just look at those COLORS! This whole series of “old school heroes” is just fabulous. You can see some of the best ones here, and you can take a peek at more ofContinue reading “Beautiful.Witty.Hipster”
England How I Love Thee
It’s no secret that I love pretty much anything English. Especially design-wise. There’s something about it that I can’t quite put my finger on. I guess there’s this idea in my head that anything English is automatically more refined, or more elegant, or just better. I know that’s not really true in my head, butContinue reading “England How I Love Thee”
In the Meantime
I’m so sorry, but I’m going to have to postpone the Foodie installment of the gift guide until tomorrow. I’m working on some rush projects for Ameraguard that I really want to have at least partially done before I go into a Turkey coma. But, never fear, I’ve found a beautiful mid-century modern exhibit toContinue reading “In the Meantime”
