Benedictine Type
Beautiful type by Paul Henri-Masson.
Farmers
Widgets & Stone created a cohesive look for a small Farmers market in Tennessee. The Farmers were being confused with many other local markets so they omitted the word market and went with who they really are, Farmers. Widgets & Stone put together a nice review on their process and if you’re hungry for more images, visit their Flickr page. I especially love this line at the end of their review: “No local farmers, no local food. Know local farmers, know local food.”
26 Characters
Recently fell upon the blog of 26 Characters, the blog of painter and lettering artist Michiel van der Born. I’m really keen on his tattoo-inspired work.
Sam Tootal
Really impressed by the identity for Sam Tootal formed by Manual Creative. A solid monogram makes way for a great identity to be executed. via
HeyDays
I get really excited over designers or design studios who create simple yet stunning identities for companies large and small. I think it’s difficult to convince a client to stay simple (simple in it’s appearance not in the arrival to the solution); for a small business when they want to appear as a larger corporation, and a large corporation doesn’t want to seem small. But the work of HeyDays has a delicate balance and creates brands that can be either and I think that’s something special. I posted about their work once before here.
Ivana Martinovic
Lovely work from Ivana Martinovic incorporating many handmade elements. Ivana is a senior designer for Landor in Sydney, Australia.
Luke Bott
I recently discovered Luke Bott‘s work thanks to FFFOUND! and really like this style of work. I found a few pieces that were along the same line. He has much more work on his site, but these three really caught my eye. via
Lydia Nichols
I really get way too excited when I stumble upon a designer/illustrator from my home state. Pennsylvania is the place to be, and Lydia Nichols‘ work is just fantastic. Originally from Pennsylvania, Lydia now lives in New York but continues to infuse her work with inspiration from her home state. I especially love the Pennsylvania Wedding invitation she created, at bottom.
Papirmekanik
I don’t know why or what it’s for, but I like it. Papirmekanik is mechanics with paper. There are several other posts on the artist’s website.
