Handbound Books

340
My friend Chris and I want to start hand-binding sketch books and then I found this girl who is just f***ing pro at it and I'm so jealous! I didn't realize there's so many different ways to bind. I am very excited. Off to the crafts store!

Neon signs are awesome. Especially when they double as works of art.

Package Type II

This is for the girls. I've always admired their package design and general brand identity. It is totally my style. I just wish I could afford to buy more of their products!

Whenever I post something not related to type, you know it's going to be good. Alright, so I'm pretty sure this girl is f***ing crazy, but her work is just beautiful.

Web Type

I usually hate animated websites, but every one of these are simply works of art. I haven't seen so many beautiful websites by the same firm before. Of course they are mostly all fashion sites, but still. Wonderful. I suggest looking through their portfolio. Every link leads to gold.

ALSO: My friend Christopher just sent me this link on how to avoid orphans on webpages. Highly recommend giving it a look see!
