I’ve seen a resurgence of some beautifully designed retro art deco fonts lately. Above are a couple that I’ve really taken a liking to, Cassannet (by Josip Kelava) & Metropolis (by atipo.es). They maintain a great classic quality while also feeling nice and fresh. Both terrific fonts for designers who are looking to shake it [...]

21 artists come together to show off their amazing helmet designs at a Portland art gallery, all supported by classic motorcycle helmet company BELL. Love to see a company take notice and place a spotlight on their customer’s passions. Makes for an entertaining view. Visit -> http://www.bellsports.com Instrument UX Innovation Reel from Instrument on Vimeo. UX, IxD, interactive design, UI design, experience design, motion design, yadda yadda yadda, whatever the brand or flavor you should choose… it’s about producing something special that makes people want to engage and experience whatever it is that you have to offer them. Hopefully effortlessly, and with some kind [...] The Derelicts a short film by eGarage from eGarage on Vimeo. A friend at work passed this well captured and well told documentary vid along to me this morning. The man behind ICON, modern engineeering, classic purposeful design, discusses his love for the “derelict style”. Love the description “time burned, natural finish and patina”. Visiit -> http://icon4x4.com/ Related [...] The Wolf I Used To Be… from Nearly Normal on Vimeo. This papercraft stop-motion film is both mesmerizing and and inspiring in so many ways. The story, lighting, the quality of the character rendering and the overall scenery is nothing short of pure genius. Can you tell I like it? Have a look for yourself. Visit -> [...] Photographer Simon Harsent’s thought provoking ‘Melt’ series of iceberg portraits fascinate me. At first glance they feel powerful and have a sense of permanence, but then those feelings are soon replaced by a darker reality, making them seem dismal and fragile. Aside all of that, they are amazingly captured and processed. Be sure to have [...] It’s not easy for companies to keep track of their brand presentation across all the platforms, screens and devices that exist these days. Especially when you’re in the app space, and you have hundreds of third party app designers and developers out there creating new experiences specifically for your device. How do you keep it [...] The Future Belongs to the Curious from Skillshare on Vimeo. Notes from Vimeo: “From the moment we open our eyes it fuels our existence. We are on a mission to remind everyone to never lose your sense of curiosity or wonder. Long live learning!” Visit -> skillshare.com I’m really getting into the content that FvF interview magazine is serving up. Covering artists and designers, it’s a nice look inside their day-to-day and the personal environment that they’ve built to support their creative process. The shots above are from the interview with Brooklyn, NYC based set designer Johanna Burke. Many more beautifully captured [...] If you haven’t stopped by the Percival menswear boutique site yet, you should do so. Not only is their menswear collection pretty fresh, I dig the product photography and the super clean design. All together it makes for a nice branded shopping experience. Sophisticated + simple and a bit edgy. Visit -> http://www.percivalclo.com/store/ TimeHue from abstractmachine on Vimeo. Notes from Vimeo: “TimeHue is a clock that represents time as a series of hue values ranging from 0° to 360° within in the HSL color space. To read the clock, start from the center and move outwards: the hue of the small circle represents hours, the middle continuous hue represents minutes and [...] Really nice work coming from 20 year old Norwich, UK artist ‘Inflow’. Saw his stuf this morning via the magical tumblr radar. Many more insanely detailed drawings to be seen beyond the link below. Visit -> http://inflowdesigns.co.uk/ Christmas Card to Friends from Stephen Fitzgerald on Vimeo. The above paper craft animation by Stephen Fitzgerald is nothing short of amazing. Be sure to check it out. Also, I wish you all a belated Merry Christmas! Many thanks to those who stopped by CircuitBreaks this year. I hope to see you in 2012! Notes from Vimeo: “A friend [...] The new interactive video experience titled ‘Sprawl 2: Mountains Beyond Mountains’ coming from Arcade Fire feels really fresh and innovative, right down to the dismal, twitchy videography and art direction. In short you get to swing and sway right along with the track with either your mouse or with your own body via the video [...] |
