Posted on Monday, February 15, 2010 in happy monday, i wish i was...., inspiration

ok so a vast majority of us have off today, then there’s the 1 percent hardworking idiots like myself who have to trudge out in the snow to do design for clients who have off :) anyway – i’m vicariously on vaca through this lovely photo- where i have no idea where i got it from, so if its yours – its beautiful and i’m jealous.

enjoy your day off snots.

good weekend

Posted on Friday, February 12, 2010 in design, diy, good weekend

tgif. so happy to see that one go – that means one less week of winter to have to deal with! :) it has been a trying week at best. ramming our creative heads in to walls, fighting technological demons that are vinyl cutters, slicing digits with dull blades – we welcome the weekend. so in lieu of the commercial holiday that is valentines day – i leave you with a really cool diy (and i’m sad that i have never seen this site before today.)

via a blog that i will be following like a hawk – benign objects.

happy monday.

Posted on Monday, February 8, 2010 in design, happy monday

here is a very different evil post for you. i’m coming off a bit of a rant.

Kids -

Today I write you about a sore topic called Arial. Today in my alternate life I had someone request a font change…from Helvetica to Arial. Here is why I cry. First of all, lets have a design history lesson kids. Helvetica was created by Haas Foundry in the 50′s. When was Arial created? Yeaaa, 82. Hello, Arial is a rip-off of Helvetica. So – naturally Arial is awesome cause its younger….NOT. It’s limited – yay a couple style options (really is awesome trying to create hierarchy on a newsletter), its homely and just plain dumb. People, I beg of thee – its a system font for a reason. It is only acceptable for web, thats all folks.

Arial is a poser.
We don’t like posers.

Cannon Beach Residence – Nathan Good Architect, P.C.

Posted on Tuesday, October 27, 2009 in architecture, design, house + home, inspiration, interior design

Maybe I have a profound respect for architecture because I have no mathematical skills at all and can only dream of being as bad-ass as these architects we post here. Take this bad boy…the Cannon Beach Residence, a yummy compilation of Nathan Good (architect) and Georgia Erdenberger (interior designer). Bring the outside in… l o v e  i t. Oh yea, and on top of it looking phenomenal it also is very green. Read about it here.
