Everomp: Design Makes the Heart Go Yonder

DLVBBDO. Strangest portfolio site I've seen in awhile. Kind of fun to type your way to different sections. But... slowwwwww. (03/31)

1000 Year Forecast. Brilliant. (03/31)

English As She Is Spoke. A handbook to learned English good. (03/31)

Please keep off the banks. No shit. (03/31)

Turn your body into a battery?! (03/31)

Lovely packaging from Lateral Branding. (03/31)

Death cancels everything but truth. (03/30)

An interview with photographer Sam Falls. (03/30)

Silent movie featuring Scarlett Johansson. Could she be any cuter? Dear God, somebody find me a bunny. (03/30)

A first: popcorn containers, by Libat Porat. Love the cardboard'esque look and feel. (03/30)

Lamborbiker Concept by Flavio Adriani | SwipeLife

City of Jaca Hockey Arena. People in Spain, lucky lucky. (03/30)

Beer logo sweaters. Um. Yeah. [uc(03/30)

Sphere logos. Not even enough! (03/30)

Sexy People. We are the world. We are the future. Especially this guy. [urn] (03/27)

Vintage beer cans. Lite Beer, eh? Guess so. (03/25)

Retro DHARMA ads from Lost. Love the "smoke" ad. (03/25)

Louise Fili, an amazing designer/illustrator that I've never heard of before. Shame, shame, shame on me. Love her work. My favorite right now is the identity for Rusk. (03/24)

Brandy Agerbeck: Graphic facilitation. Wow, definitely something I haven't seen before. (03/24)

Elmo and Garvais! What a great way to start the week. Thank you! (03/23)

Reid Miles, one of my all-time favorite designers. He gave a vision of the jazz scene. Interestingly, his personal distance to the music helped craft the ultimate look. (03/23)

Why do freeways come to a stop? (03/23)

Michelle Obama to plant White House edible garden, another step forward. (03/23)

Jacques Auriac, a new one on me. (03/23)

Goodbye Google, a well-thought description of working as a designer at the Big G. When data rules the land, shouldn't those who can best communicate it be heard? (03/23)

To say "Brian Miller has a knack for making the complex beautiful" is an understatement! (03/20)

BMW Museum. (03/20)

A very mesmerizing video showing the evolution of the Batman symbol. One of my favorite songs, by U2, in the background. Bonus! (03/20)

Font Burner, an interesting tool for embedding fonts in a web site. Gonna research this one more, but I like the idea. (03/20)

Wisconsin has a new logo. I'm not discussing this as a way to point a finger and throw a snide comment. Please read the review. It's an insightful, educated write-up about an identity whose in the virtual shooting gallery for commenters who only know how to say "That's complete crap!" I wish there were more insightful articles like this about identities. (03/20)

Bring Down IE6. Funny site dedicated to destroying an old browser. Strangely, the site seems to attack the browser itself (which it deserves, yes), when it's really the user base who needs a wake up call. (03/20)

Abandoned ruins, by Rob Dobi. (03/19)

The Fawcett House by Frank Lloyd Wright. (03/19)

Official Where The Wild Things Are poster. Excitement. (03/19)

I'm really enjoying the work and web site for Alexander Meyer. Lovely use of black and white. (03/16)

Interesting photographs of Dubai from Josef Hoflehner. (03/16)

shotopop has some beautiful work. I almost feel their web presence overshadows the work. Overload! Regardless, very nice. (03/13)

Retro cereal boxes are on the way. Or as I like to call them, non-ugly cereal. (03/13)

Incoming, life-sized Gundam! (03/13)

Posters in Amsterdam. Simply that. Definitely worth a look. (03/13)

Love the photography of Branislav Kropilak. Special treat, click on Trains. (03/12)

Daft Punk's Console. Schedule to lose an hour having some sound fun. (03/12)

Mom, Dad... I'll be living in a water tower this semester. (03/12)

Pitchfork redesigns, and I can't help but wonder if this is truly needed. What would Rolling Stone look like if they decided to redesign 30 years ago? (03/12)

OS Interface Design between 1981-2009. Amazing that we haven't actually come too far, quite yet. In the grand scheme of things. Just imagine what we'll see in 10 years. (03/12)

An eco-friendly oil factory. That's right. (03/11)

Zombie Donkey is quite clever. (03/11)

I'm in love with this aviation photography. (03/11)

MICA has been given a web redesign. Congrats to the folks at Cog. A quick writeup on the project and here. (03/11)

What could happen if Citibank were nationalized? Ironic. We hate the banks, then we hate the government for saving their asses. (03/11)

The rich textured illustrations of Yellena James. (03/10)

The greenest vehicles a the 2009 Geneva Motor Show. (03/10)

Think everywhere, even in the shitter (so to speak). (03/09)

Hamburger cupcakes. Oh boy. (03/09)

Brand face. (03/09)

Object-oriented CSS framework. Now say it three times fast. (03/09)

A nice roundup of modern design homes. (03/09)

Horizone Lines

I hate album reviews. How should they matter, in any way, to our own opinion? Unfortunately, they do. And we follow them to our own opinions. On that note, I hate to think this is an album review. This is more of a reaction to the general feedback I've mistakenly overheard. So U2 just released an album...

Class bank logos, there's something timeless about these logos. The unicorn's a bit strange, though. (03/06)

Do you remember when you said you'd never forget this? (03/06)

These Science ads from yester-year are pretty amazing. The modersism found throughout is worth noting. My favorite - Hercules Powder Company (?) (03/05)

Afri Cola. Very cool design. Wish we had more bottles like this in the States. (03/05)

Hotel Tierra Atacama, found in the middle of a desert, apparently. (03/05)

Harvesting rainwater. Wouldn't it make sense to incorporate this idea into all new houses built? (03/05)

GE augments reality. Well, sort of. Really cool idea using, I'm assuming, fairly simple technologies. (03/05)

Get clean coal clean! Directed by the Coens. (03/05)

Disregard the cheese factor of the circa '91 interview with Paul Rand. Worth watching. Rand seems to keep the graphic designer/interviewer at bay when asked questions about the sacredness of his IBM logo. Why are there eight lines? Because it's practical. (03/04)

Thirteen's typography is stellar. [fff] (03/04)

.htaccess Editor. Worth bookmarking for future use. (03/04)

One of the most incredible videos I've seen in a long, long time: Reza Dolatabadi’s Khoda was done in two years, each frame painted separately. Painted. Separately. (03/03)

Fluid Grids come to life. Must-read article, but give yourself an hour to let it sink in. (03/03)

The design of Andy Gilmore. I'm truly amazed at his body of work. (03/03)

The art of Jay Horinouchi. (03/03)

One for Dad, Omaha Steaks redesigns their logo. Growing up, my family would cook out many a steak from them. Always top notch. (03/03)

Family Fun!

The US Trade Deficit. A graph worth looking. (03/02)

Empire Design, makers of promotional material for Hollywood movies. Click on "Trailers", really like that effect. (03/02)

Beautiful illustrations for a calendar, circa 1957, by the German couple Sigrid and Hans Lammle. (03/02)

Available Online for Free. Not that I'm endorsing that kind of thing. (03/02)

A Penguin Tumblr theme. Not bad at all. (03/02)
