Life Plan
Details aside, this photo comes close to summing up my life plan in one image. The Freshwater house, Sydney was pohotographed by John Gollings. Looks like I'm going to need to employ Chenchow Little Architects. ^_^

Interaction design and curiosity
A quality video by Getty about graphic and interaction designer Ian Coyle. He and Duane King ( thinking for a living ) run a design studio in Portland OR and work on select projects that allow the user to investigate, discover and be rewarded for their curiosity. Concentrating on clean interactive design that's based on a working knowledge of letterpress printing - both these guys are producing work that makes sense to me. Here's a video of an AIGA presentation they did on ther work.
Iccedentally, they seem to share a space with OMFGco.

Engagement party invitations
I made linocut invitations for my engagement party with mixed ink, light pink card and a star sticker in the top right. Because my lady and I both love J Dilla's musical work the design references a Dilla 12" cover design by Studio No.1.

Point and click Glasgow
Some pictures I've taken on my old iPhone while in and around Glasgow over the last few months. Some local sights, a little graffitti and whatnot. I'd like to know who did the paste-up of the young girl and teddy bear, anyone know?

See Fresh
The removal of modern signage can occasionally reveal real typographic gems. This shopfront and beautiful piece of signage is one of my neighbourhood favourites.
But then I do have a bit of a thing for pink.

I bought this little red hat from CXXVI a couple weeks ago and am kind of aiming for that ill Steve Zissou look. Still some work to do on the beard.
