Let it swim
Randy sent me a link to lots of awesome typographic package designs — very inspiring! I would suggest checking it out, there are some great designs.
This one looks like it’s been letterpressed:
I would love to design and print something for packages. The typographic design is great on this, too.
and wood type inspired package design for eggs. If I see this at the market, I would buy these eggs for sure.
Check out more great package designs here.
I had to post this here, for my inspiration and for your inspiration, but when I saw this wedding invites over at Design*Sponge today, I was in shock! How creative! I loooove the story and the design; lots of typography, very simple, cool, and you can easily follow their lovely story in such a fun way, it is definitely one of the best wedding invites I’ve ever seen. (besides mine… hehe)
Makes me want to design our story like this… :) How cute would that be? Maybe for our 10 year anniversary or something :)
Anthropologie has a catalog out right now that is so special. For their music-themed issue, they have collaborated with Hatch Show Print (!) and what they have done is really inspiring, I had to take pictures and share some of the pages/elements here. I’m sure all the letters are hand-set and hand printed by Hatch Show Print with their awesome collections of wood types and hand-curved letters and images… simply amazing.
The cover. I love the big bold types that are overlapping at each other. Pretty color combination!
The back. How fun! “resonate” “collaborate” – I’d love to try setting types like that someday… Very nice.
and this arrow… awwww so cool!
Page treatment.
Again, these typesettings are making me go crazy! You see things like this throughout the catalog.
and who knew wood types and fashion go so well together?
There are a lot more lovely images, types, atomosphere… along with great anthropologie goods in the catalog, if you haven’t already, please check it out.
Happy Friday, everyone! I hope this inspires your day! :)
In my neighborhood, Park Slope Brooklyn, 491 Six Wine Bar is coming Fall 2009. How did I find out? I walked by their window, the display caught my eye… and that’s how I found out. I thought it was very interesting: lots of artsy buildings and a typewriter. A message typed on…
Can you read what it says? The buildings are a part of an installation called “The City.”
Love the corks on the ground. Subtle touch.
I signed up to be invited for an opening, very looking forward to its door opens…
Friday inspirations :)
