Inspiration

A treasure trove of amazing Russian design. A valuable source for any designer who’s ever been inspired by Soviet Paintings, Graphics, Prints, Illustrations and Posters.

T-shirts and Pearl Jam concert posters unsurpassed in the industry. Coby and Barry’s book Pearl Jam vs. Ames Bros is an amazing undertaking and well worth the purchase. Wearing their t-shirts has elicited so much public response when out and about im going to have to get more.

If you happen to be interested in “marketing” this blog is a great place to get another perspective you will not normally hear from your agency. Madership, by Atremy Lebedev touches mainly on design and typography but has its fair share of brilliance on other topics.

Amazing fine art and illustration by Ana Bagayan and her highly entertaining blog.

The wonderful world of travel journaling.

This image came from Mattias’ Moleskine Project. His drawings are fantastic and its hard to believe one person could produce this much work. Among my favorites is the page with the choice: real life or make believe.

Find, bookmark and share your favorite images. A great image resource and visual inspiration resource guide forwarded on from the Smatter.tv blog Hypercanvas.
