I’ve been a fan of Job Wouters (a.k.a Letman) for a long time, and his work is a personal favorite of mine. He recently collaborated with Gijs Frieling on a mural for the runway show of Dries Van Noten’s Men’s Fall 2012 collection during Paris fashion week. There was also a handful of garments within the collection that featured their art.

Back in October of 2010 I came across these cargo vessels designed by PostlerFerguson. I won’t lie, it was love at first site except they were prototypes and not available to the public. It was a test of patience, but my prayers were answered last month when Papafoxtrot (coolest name for a toy company, right?) started selling them. Sometimes it’s worth the wait for the things you love.

Alright everyone, it’s time to nerd out on some serious type. Answer me a question. When was the last  time you came across an awesome beveled sans face? Probably the last time you found an awesome inline. The truth is there are some out there, but they can be hard to find. Very few can deliver as much condensed-sans-beveled-awesomeness as the cool folks over at Aesthetic Apparatus. They’re getting their font on, and it looks oh so good.

Target Education Illustrations: Ty Wilkins

Nowadays it’s hard to find an illustrator that is producing work that is the least bit original. Austin’s Ty Wilkins has managed to do this with his clever use of geometric shapes and pattern. If I do so dare, I would compare him to a modern day Charley Harper (There will never be another Charley Harper, but you can see the similarities).
