Type Tuesday: Bob's Your Uncle


As a follow up to the typographic seating featured last week, Martin Yeele, cofounder with his wife Michele of the stationery company Bob's Your Uncle, sent me pictures of SIT benches designed for a recent exhibition in Boston.

Bob's Your Uncle's products are distinctly typographic and bold. How fun to design a notebook and just plaster a big A on the cover!

Let's colour

BrazilIndia

You might have already seen this video/commercial by Dulux paints on other blogs recently, but it is well worth finding out more about the Let's Color Project. There are so many inspiring images on their Flickr site as well. It goes well beyond a nice idea for a television commercial into a program that truly affects positive change in places around the world.

LondonPainters' feet from around the world (set)Such a joyous project!

In the pages: Andrew Bannecker


I am very happy that Andrew Bannecker accepted an assignment for the current issue. This is his illustration for Mark Hamilton's article "Colour Coding the Movies: Blue" which explores films with an underwater theme. Here's a snapshot of the magazine from Andrew's blog:


Thanks, Andrew!

San Francisco: through the eyes of Kirstie Tweed


Kirstie Tweed was recently on a trip to San Francisco with her mom. Visit her blog to see more gorgeous photos. (Thanks for the post about us, Kirstie!)

Kirstie took the photos of me and my typewriter that appear on the letter from the editor page in every issue.

San Francisco: More reasons to love you

"Oh weary traveler. Oh vagabond wanderer. You've found it. For this is the place you've been searching. A home for the pioneer and a place rich with the spirit of a job well done. Levi's® Workshops are for workers. A place to hone your craft or to reawaken a long forgotten one. They're where the grit on your hands is a sign of your mettle. We invite you, one and all, to explore this endeavor and look with new eyes on the craftsmanship, ambition and desire that is Levi's® Workshops."

Levi's has a pop-up workshop space in San Francisco with some interesting events planned. On my list of things to see in August!
