Hasta La Ideas

Of all the things that could be made glamorous, raw meat is an unlikely candidate. However, Australia’s largest chain of premium quality meats, 133-year-old ‘Victor Churchill‘, has done so.

Makes you wish you weren’t in front of a computer, this thing looks like a ton of fun…

Check out the site for today’s pic, as well as a write-up on this one (from March 6).

New work and new website…

They aspire to inspire, working across a broad spectrum of mediums. Although the use of geometric shapes isn’t particularly groundbreaking theses days, I’m a huge fan of how they intermingle them with clipped and/or obstructed artwork. I love seeing hand skills interacting with contemporary design in a world gone digital. The duo from Norway recently hung this show at Galleri Darbu (below).

Some other great stuff from Oh Yeah Studio…

A great piece from Art Center College of Design student Andrew Johnson.

The book talks about L.A.’s oil history and how that past is often hidden by it’s celebrity stricken landscape.

Some excellent work from the London-based designer, specializing in book covers. This one caught my eye a few weeks ago, and after contacting him I was able to get some of his latest to share (see below).

He’s been designing since 1998; first at Bloomsbury Publishing, later at Penguin, and currently freelances out of a shared studio with a ping pong table in North London. Sounds good to me! Check out his site for more.
