Vintage Looking Soccer Posters

Just got sent over these awesome Soccer Posters by Zoran Lucic. The typography is spot on and he uses really great printing methods to get that vintage effect. See the rest here.

USA as seen by a New Yorker

Found this map which I thought was hilarious. I have to admit my 3 years in NYC have definitely made me understand this map much better.

Phraseology Project

Check out this new project by Drew Melton called The Phraseology Project. You can submit words or sentences and he will transform them into typographic masterpieces.

Mosaic Made of Burnt Toast

This is a mosaic made from 3,053 pieces of toast by Gustavo Aguerre and Ingrid Falk. Each were cooked at different levels to create the lights and darks to create an image that is over 22 feet wide. If you want to see it in person it lies in the Museo de Arte Moderno in Buenos Aires.

Awesome Video by Josh Owens who spent 6 weeks in NYC hopping from hotel room to hotel room shooting footage of the city.

FabFoods

Finally an artist that merges my 3 favorite things: logos, food and fashion. Photographer Linus Morales did this series called Fabfood.

Brooklyn Botanical Gardens

A few weeks ago I finally had the chance of checking out Brooklyn Botanical Gardens. Its one of those things that all New Yorkers say they want to do, yet very few actually venture into Brooklyn to actually do. Let me tell you, its well worth the trip! Probably one of the most relaxing places you can find in this city. You can lie on the lawn or scope out the beautiful flowers. A perfect day out!

WD-50

Last weekend we had the pleasure of checking out WD-50. Wylie Dufresne's Molecular Gastronomy restaurant in NYC. It was interesting to say the least. We opted for the tasting menu which consisted of 11 courses, some of which were a hit (chocolate beet ice cream) and some of which were a total miss (fois gras). All in all it was an eclectic experience, if you want to spend the evening analyzing strange food combinations and presentation, this is the place for you. Would I recommend the food in itself...maybe not. Above you will find the Poached Egg in Edible Shell, King Oyster Udon Sweetbreads, Lamb loin, Chocolate Beet Ice cream, Chocolate packets with Rice Krispies Treats, and last but not least the beautiful kitchen that we got a tour of after the meal.

Interior Design Inspiration

Since moving into my new apartment I have been all about scoping out decorating inspiration. Here are some interiors that I find particularly cool. I really like pale walls combined with bright furniture and decoration.

Photography - Eric Lafforgue

I recently discovered photographer Eric Lafforgue's work one day when searching for a portrait photographer. He travels all over the world and captures portraits of natives. The ones that particularly stood out to me were the photos of tribal Papua New Guinea. I find it so fascinating to look at the colors and accessories people use to decorate their bodies. Check out his photostream here.
