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.
Love the embossed leather label. This is a well-done product, from top to bottom. Bravo.

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.
Aina is the Hawaiian word for land and for me 2010 is a year of reconnecting to the earth. In 2009, we experienced a year filled with financial problems, political tensions and fear in the media… As a forest sometimes burns, new life regrows in its place. While we may have had a year of burning I feel like the soil we have to grow out of is fertile and full of growth.

At least I think Mark Boulton wrote that on Colourlovers. I can’t seem to find it now, but I scribbled it on some paper and I like it more and more each day. I believe the quote was in reference to the color he chose as the color of 2010. Apparently, Pantone decided it’s turquoise.
This wonderful poster is for sale over on Society6 for $50. Worth every penny. (via Kitsune Noir)
Love these cartons by Sanna Annukka for Cravendale Milk.
Patagonia decided to scrap their printed catalog and instead debuted an entirely online catalog yesterday. They’re certainly not the first company to do this. But it re-ignited a conversation I’ve been running in my head about the possibilities that interactivity bring to works that would traditionally be print-only. From the Kindle to the iPod to traditional browsers, the way that we tell a story or sell a product should never be the same.
Chris Parks, aka Pale Horse Design, does some amazing work.
