yes ANOTHER blog

Every time a campaign as crazy as this gets made, we all applaud. Because it's good for every creative, every client. And a reminder that sometimes we just need something nutty to sell.

From Uncommon Stockholm, this campaign gives me all the ENVY-FEELS I've been craving. Smart, understated, true. Reminds me of the "everything tastes better with Coke" campaign but LIGHTYEARS better. It doesn't shout. It just enters the room in a way that you can't ignore.

ICONS ICONS ICONS!! Nope, no Madonna. Not Steve Jobs. THESE kinda icons. It's like Noun Project but ANIMATED. See, I'll always be a design NERD at heart.

Needing this today! These poems on birds thing is not my thing, normally. (I'm a poetry SNOB with all CAPS). But the simplicity of this line? Patience is respect bestowed on the present and a kindess to time. <chefs kiss> to Maria Popova!

BBH! BURGER KING! I LOVE THIS SO MUCH that I can barely write full sentences! I stumbled upon this collection of fashion MADE for drippy sauces on Red Church's site. IF you have time check out all of Red Church's work...the site's UX is so fun, I wanna jump inside and swim around.

WOW, this is the cutest site I've ever seen. I've never even heard of this brand, nor do I need to buy any "bloomers" right now. BUT it's been a while since I've seen a site this well executed. Now I have to go hunt for whoever did it...

THANK YOU TYPEWORKS for inspiring me today and at the same time reminding me I have love for more than words.

K, that's enough but this design is my new fav...everything from industrial design, to student designs, strange designs, simple designs. This helmet was designed by a shop in South Carolina called Discommon. As a huge Mando fan, I love the mashup of old timey Gma-inspired porcelain. What's even funnier is the writeup on the site, that if you do put it on your head, have a hammer nearby to get it off! Design, these days, inspires me much more than copy...maybe I should make the switch? NAHHHHH.

Old, but STILL SO GOOD. When you work on BMW for as many years as I did, you THINK you've seen every idea. This one is so simple and fresh. Two things as creatives we all strive to be.

ILLUSTRATION ALERT!!! Soccer has never looked this cool...sorry Ted Lasso. Kudos to Richard Swarbrick. I took a screen grab and it doesn't do it justice. As Ani DiFranco says, "I have the kind of beauty that moves."
