Architecture firm ‘Ashton Raggatt McDougal’ has created an unusual gem in the Southbank area of Melbourne. The design has been honored with the 2009 Victorian Architecture Medal, winning in three categories for public architecture, interior design as well as urban design. From the pics I’ve seen the Melbourne Recital Center’s sharp angles, bright colors and [...]

Graphic designer Julien Vallée specializes in paper sculpture design and has pretty much made a serious name for himself through this trendy/popular medium. Working with some major clients e.g., The New York Times, Print Magazine and Globo Logos to name a few, he’s helped to set the tone for a pretty significant design revolution that [...] Typeradio from Blocter on Vimeo. In this video the folks from Bloctor talk about their popular typography/design podcast ‘Typeradio’ and the idea behind the concept of taking a visual medium and placing it onto a completely invisible platform… and all the interesting conversation that comes from doing so. I also like their swim upstream approach to [...] The wonderfully classic/retro NYC store front has been taken to new heights recently as Gawker Artists have come together to produce this amazing rooftop exhibit called Mom & Popism. Seen above, the near-life size photos have been mounted to the walls of the rooftop and then enhanced by the graffiti work of a few select [...] BMW M6 by Vita Brevis Films from VITA BREVIS on Vimeo. I respect a film production house that will hold out for the exact weather condition that will compliment the necessary mood, look and feel required to satisfy the original intent of their creative concept (in this case pea soup thick fog). So many agencies [...] Smart move by Urban Outfitters. They’ve launched their very own fixed gear online configurator bike shop -> “A singlespeed bike with a flip-flop hub, Aristotle‘s clean lines and components balance value and visual.” It must be doing pretty well because they are already backlogged with orders. Similar to a Nike Lab approach, the experience allows [...] Gregory Euclide is an artist and teacher living in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. What I’m digging about his work is that he’s taken some pretty mundane/everyday objects that you would typically find laying around in a vacant parking lot or that forgotten corner of your basement and has built small beautiful landscapes from [...] The Chap – Dig For Fire and Vincent Moon’s SXSW ’09 Take-Away series from Dig For Fire on Vimeo. Today’s 18th ‘Midweek Music Bump’ is a track called ‘Fun and Interesting’ by the geo-appropriately named London based band ‘The Chap’. Filmed in the intimate setting of their temporary SXSW residence they perform the track in a [...] A Series of Exchanges from Justin Jach on Vimeo. During the summer of 2008 Chicago based film and video artist Justin Jach spent a month in São Paulo, Brazil filming his favorite graffiti artists. The outcome is this brilliant documentary style video called ‘A Series of Exchanges’. This video not only highlights the great graffiti [...] I’m not certain how long this site has been around, but for those Space Invaders junkies out there like myself this is a great resource for graffiti, art and just about anything else you can imagine that could be inspired or created from the classic pixel configuration of Space Invaders. The “movement” was originally created [...] We all know how mundane the design “day job” can become at times. The Bandito Design Co. was started as a “healthy design side project” for designers based out of Columbus Ohio. Their prints display a ton of character and sometimes veer a bit on the retro/campy side of the fence. Their work is available [...] For those who need a break from reality this week this art film featuring music from the ‘Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ is for you. This video may not be all that uplifting, it may not make much sense either but it will remove you from reality for sure. Notes from YouTube page: A mescaline-infused short featuring the YYYs [...] |
