The first style is my favorite, but look at the cool green soles on the third style.

Warrior
I kinda dig these Warrior sneakers—the Converse of China.
The first style is my favorite, but look at the cool green soles on the third style.

Vanishing Point
How cool is this video? It's so pretty and fun to watch, and it hurts my head to think about how long it must have taken to make. Give it a watch...

Rethink
This book and accompanying video by Rory O'Sullivan are utterly amazing. The video promotes the Rethink Scholarship at Langara College, and it's incredibly creative and well executed. Check it out below.

Red Leaf StudiosIndie band sterotypes
I'm a little late in posting this, but it made me laugh just the same: stereotyping people by their favorite indie bands.
Around the world
In Around the World with the Bodoni Family, Teresa Monachino uses the typeface Bodoni (one of my personal favorites) to create an alphabet of travels. For instance, she places a series of Bodoni A's to look like mountains in her depiction of the Alps; uses a leaning I to signify Italy; and places D's to look like mouse ears for Disneyland.

Hello again.
Why, hello.
After a month of world traveling, relaxing, and enjoying what's likely to be my last holiday break ever, I'm baaack. I'm trying to get organized and back into work mode (or really just normal life mode), which includes reading the copious blog posts and internet musings I missed while I was gone. While I'm doing that, I'll share some of the many, many pictures I took while I was gone. I thought it'd make things easier to group them into themes of sorts, so I'll start with windows and doorways.
It might sound odd, but I'm always intrigued by the details of brightly colored doorways or windows. It must run in the family, because on a trip to Vietnam a few years ago, my sister and I noticed the constant among all our pictures was a focus on pretty much any bright doorway. So, without further ado, here are some shots for you.

What type are you?
This is fun.
(password = character)
Pentagram put together a "quiz" of sorts called "What type are you?" that asks you to answer a few questions and tells you which typeface is most fitting to your personality.
My type was Archer Hairline.

Scientific Air Plants
I very much want one of these—especially since my herbs don't look too happy about the vacation I just took.
