Here is another tilt-shift video. This one may be the best one yet. Tilt shift is awesome, funny, and dare I say cute? Nope, I don't dare. Anyhow, watch this...it's pretty entertaining

British stuff: Evening Tweed= awesome

While I was in New York I met this lot of British designers/illustrators that were all awesome. Super nice bunch that were all super talented. Sarah and Owen were two of them, and they are part of a little collective called Evening Tweed:
Above is a banana that Sarah wrote on. It is pretty damn cool.
This is an illustration for a t-shirt Owen designed. I like the wild iso grid.

British stuff: Stamps commemorate Iconic British Designs.

While the idea of having stamps commemorate iconic pieces of design is nothing new, the ones for iconic British designs are just pure class.
Sidenote: After looking at these, I find it a bummer that they are redesigning the buses. Those originals are so great...why mess with perfection? It is odd being a product designer when faced with a challenge like this. The fact is, with the cost of labor, new manufacturing technologies, and new trends, the newer buses will lack the character the old ones have. They will be all ID'ed up and be corny for sure. I don't condone this type of design. If it ain't broke, and you can't make it better, leave it alone.

British stuff: British coins actually work together

The British are up to some pretty cool stuff lately. The new coins they will be releasing are awesome. I love the idea of all the coins interacting with each other to make a cohesive composition...pretty awesome.
The design was the winner of a nation-wide competition which received more than 4,000 entries. The winner was 26 year old Matthew Dent. Congrats.
