Title is:
The ultimate flickr picture: cat, self-portrait, naked people, fake vintage color, speudo-conceptual, square crop, big glass for cool looking. But sorry no hdr. Fave this my friend and give my a tons of awesome blinking awards, loser. (CQFD)

Is it too much to ask?

Home, friends, family, hugs, crisp cold, expensive drinks. Just one day would be enough.

It’s the latest vinyl from Norwegian band Motorpsycho. Kim (we’re on a first name basis in my head) did an amazing illustration that was laser cut on to the vinyl. It looks amazing. I need to own this.

… is one of them days where I wish i had just stayed in bed watching Pushing Daisies all day. I wish life was as pretty as that show is.

Let’s make this and play with dolls and lego. Please.

While researching something completely different, i came across this. I need to get more rings! Only problem is that my hands are tiny and that no rings fit me! And i could definitely not fit more than one ring per finger! It looks pretty anyhow.

I want this.

I’ve been trying to find this short film somewhere online, but no luck unfortunately. So these stills (the video’s just stills too) will have to do. It’s made by Norwegian actor/writer/artist/general cool person, Iram Haq and the visuals are stunning! It was shown lots at the Sundance film festival and things. You should watch it, even if it is in Norwegian. 

Oh, and then there’s a Norwegian commercial she has directed for some chicken producer or something. It’s pretty anyways:

I’m desperate for some sunshine and a stress free existance. So tempted to follow in my friends Tom and Oli’s footsteps. Quit my job (although i love it, so maybe not), sell all my shit on eBay and go somewhere far away (in their case, New Zealand) and live in a bright yellow van. Who’s in?

My housemate Michelle pointed me in the direction of this amazing Montreal based photographer – Benoit Paille. I am absolutely in love with his photographs and visual style. So dreamy.

…with this blog. I came across it on another blog (another one of my faves). It made me jealous. I want that. I’m not entirely sure what ‘that’ is. But i’ll find out and let you know.

But enough about that. I have a new font crush:

Do you guys remember this? I remember thinking it was adorable when it first came out. The guy was even kinda cute! I remember hearing it was just a hoax or something for publicity, but apparently they did actually go out, but now of course they’ve broken up! Oh well. It’s still a sweet story! I’m gonna pretend it never ended! 

Love, love, love! Florals, swans and polaroids! Yum!

I stumbled across these lovely illustrations by Nick Deakin. I love the naive feeling these have. They actually inspire me to start drawing again – something i unfortunately gave up whilst at uni. To see more of Nick Deakin’s work, click on one of the images.

In a moment of boredom i decided to redesign my logo! This is the finished result. Figured a bit of good old rhyming would do the trick! No more Line Graphic Design, just Line Design! 

Here is what my redesigned twitter page  looks like. Beneath is a close up of the logo and whatnot. 

I’m sure you are all aware of the amazing site Etsy, where people can sell all their hand made stuff. This is all good and well, but lets face it, sometime people sell the weirdest stuff. regretsy collects the worst(best?) things people are trying to get money for. Well worth a gander!

I absolutely love the show Mad Men for many reasons. The fashion, the make up, the manners, but the main reason i can’t get enough of it is the designs. If – like me- you love it and need to know more, read this article on the typography of the show, and it’s type accuracy. Pointless, but amazing nevertheless.
