“The A-1 Scrabble designer edition. The purpose of this project was to revive an old, but loved game: Scrabble. The idea was to excite people about typography by giving them the ability to choose what font their scrabble set would come in. The set would come in the font of your choice or with an assorted font pack. The scrabble board and interior box are made out of solid walnut, and the exterior box is made from birch. Each of the 6 board pieces is magnetized to fit together perfectly and each piece slides nicely into its respective slot in the box and is secured by interior magnets as well. The interior of the exterior box as well as the bottoms of the 6 board pieces are lined with cork, to protect them while in use.”- - - Lovely Package

masterpiece theater
Will Staehle is a graphic designer based out of Venice, California. He literally just finished a lecture at SCAD. Pretty cool guy, originally from WI, so he's pretty stoked the Packers won. He draws a lot of inspiration from Victorian-style typography, which I find more and more interesting. Worked for the likes of HarperCollins, JibJab, Veer and does a lot of freelance work along with collaborating with his wifey. Caaaute.

I hope it doesn't look like i'm some sort of alcoholic with all my posts relating to alcohol packaging and what not. THEY'RE JUST REALLY COOL ALRIGHT. but srsly, this particular poster I found on FrenchPaper---really fantastic paper and a kick ass blog. Currently it's 45 degrees and raining in Savannah, Georgia. Meanwhile, in Florida, it's FUCKING 80 ADN SUNNY. not okay, can i go home now? Monday, January 31, 2011

gimme
I actually really don't like Absinthe, wish I did but I don't know, it's waaay too much licorice flavor for this gal. But I'm all about this package design. Absolutely beautiful; the embossing is exquisite. So I wouldn't mind buying a bottle and having my friends drink it, as long as I get to keep the bottle.

inspiration for an upcoming project
French designer, Phillipe Apeloig, is famous for his typography and matching typographic posters. In Type II, we're working on designing our own alphabets/typefaces. I drew a lot of inspiration from his work and my posters display simply two letterforms, stressing the contrast. Pics up soon, yo.
great gatsby business cards
Not only is The Great Gatsby my favorite novel but now these are my favorite business cards. What a cool/nerdy concept. I totally geeked out when I saw this. Brought to you by The Heads of State. Anyone want to get me this poster, it's only $90....

maybe i'm getting carried away
but this website, Lovely Package, is killing meeeee. Midnight Moon is a brand of Moonshine; the packaging done by Shane Cranford. Based out of North Carolina, Cranford has a distinct style that carries out throughout all of his projects. It's a sort of blend of old style typography, old style meaning, retro, 50's or 60s with mis-registration with the clients needs/wants. All i know is that i want/need this fa sho. Cranford has done work for the likes of Coca-Cola, Single Brothers, and he designed the football brochure for Wake Forest University.

"Designed by Kelly Thorn | Country: United States
“The assignment was Diablo Salsa and Tortilla packaging, and it had to have a Mexican feel. I decided to use Catholicism in Mexico for inspiration, and found some Patron Saint candles to work off of. This is the final product.”"
This is an amazing site, I'm currently obsessed and it makes me hate my life even more. Will I ever be able to create something as sick as packaging for a salsa? or brand and brew my own beer? Anyways, check it out y'all. LovelyPackage.com
Found on the blog, The Heads of State, this package design for joints would have Dre wanting to market this shit. Nice clean, graphic design fitted with humorous titles such as "Possibly Oregano," or my personal fav, "Vermont Ski Trip." Lemme get dat.
