Graphic Design Draft has a clean and simple yet unique style of design. I can’t say in detail what the firm’s design philosophy is because the whole site is in Japanese. Too bad all those years taking japanese in high school didn’t do me any good!

GRAPHIC DESIGN Clara has some really nice new poster work up on her portfolio site. I especially like her set of college reports she created describing her internship experience. I wish we had such a developed internship program at my school!
holland design
BOOK I just bought the Super Holland Design book! There’s a lot of visual yumminess inside. I wonder what these amazing designers think of the Dutch government’s attempt on a new national logo.

colors
MAGAZINE The brilliant COLORS magazine has done it again! Issue 73 is filled with amazing mind-boggling concepts about money. I had the great opportunity to meet with the creative directors. They are such inspiring and kind people. You can really see their personalities shine through their work. They’d make Tibor very proud.
evah fan
ILLUSTRATION Evah is an amazing San Francisco artists who’s artwork reflects nonsense and mystery. Her illustrations are fascinatingly whimsical yet twisted. I also came across www.tinyindustries.com who’s illustration style seems to be very similar to evah’s. They have some lovely work, too.
frederic tacer
Graphic Design Frederic Tacer is a graphic designer based in France who has some very inspirational works. Take a look especially at his Cotyle Type that he designed while he was confined to his bed for a month and half during his recovery from a fractured pelvis. You know you’re a true designer when you can design even while in pain. Design makes all things bad go away!
