Hey guys! Please excuse the design disaster around these parts at the moment. New shiny layout in the works and to be revealed soon! Yay! xo. (2012/02/04)
Excuse me while I bask in nostalgia for a few minutes here. I really miss Sydney. Sometimes it’s still kind of surreal that my travels in Australia are already over. I feel like I should still be looking forward to them. After all, I spent a good year of my life looking forward to going to Australia. And then I was there, and I fell in love, and it went by in the blink of an eye. Cue wistful sigh.
This little video has me dreaming about and falling in love with it all over again. What can I say? I’m a sucker for travel videos. And travel videos with awesome typography are even better. Like a moth to a flame, I’m longing for sandy beaches, bustling downtown streets, that beautiful and humungous! harbour, koalas…
For the ultra-wanderlust-filled among us (raise your hands proudly, you’re not alone!), they also have equally as lovely videos for other cities, including Vancouver, Beijing, London and Paris, among others. Go forth and enjoy!
Because I wasn’t lying when I said I was superduper obsessed with this calendar compiled from photographs of house numbers. Nope, not even close. In fact I’ve started to cross the line between regular and healthy love to full on kind-of-frightening-I-should-probably-be-restrained obsession. The other night I was Googling up a storm rivaling Doomsday in size, and I found this glorious set of 365 photos of house numbers on Flickr! Oh, sweet baby Jesus, it was like my birthday and drinking milkshakes and and popping bubble wrap and petting fluffy sheep and hearing my favourite song all at the. same. time. Guys, I got it baaaad. I fear my obsession cannot be cured. And like any noteworthy rabidly disease consumed person-slash-zombie-type-thing, I must pass the infection on… broohahaaa.
Warning: There are a few curse words/minor profanities in some of the images posted in this entry.
Little known fact, once upon a time, I studied graphic design for a year. Yup. Ended up not being my thing, but I’m still made about type! Typography is what initially drew me to graphic design. I’m not so much on the up-and-up with the graphic design community at present, but one thing I do really enjoy looking over is custom typography. One of my favourite artists is Seb Lester.
