Niels “Shoe” Meulman is a super-talented graffiti artist and creative director from Amsterdam. His work is so good, I’m actually shocked that I haven’t seen it before. He has a new book out, called “Calligraffiti” that looks fantastic.
I came across these covers for two of Akira Kurosawa’s best flicks the other day while looking for another one of his films on Netflix. Love them.

Love these cartons by Sanna Annukka for Cravendale Milk.
Chris Parks, aka Pale Horse Design, does some amazing work.
Love these cans by SuperBig Creative for Jones Soda (via the Dieline). Happy Halloween!
