David Pearson is posting covers from the fifth and apparently final series (boo!) of Penguin’s wonderful Great Ideas series. Dickens’ Night Walks is one of my favourites.

It’s Nice That : Article : Michael Please: The Eaglman Stag

This is bloody amazing. I rarely see a trailer that makes me want to hunt down the film there and then. I’ll say it again, bloody amazing!

Holy…

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Julia Hasting interprets ‘forecast’ for a magazine called Nozone. I love rain when illustrated, when written about, just about anywhere.

Good questions all - some early thinking for this year’s Instal festival following last year’s statistic-fuelled effort. See it larger over at Flickr.

Just stumbled upon this at Underware - half a liter of human blood used to make printing ink. Totally astounding.

Yesterday I wrapped up work on Coming & Crying, the Kickstarter-powered first release from Melissa Gira Grant and Meaghan O’Connell’s Glass Houses Press. The perfect cover photograph is by Nikola Tamindzic, and I handled design duties inside and out. 

There was nothing about this whole process that wasn’t a total joy (despite some contradicting claims). Melissa and Meaghan are two of the most enthusiastic, appreciative people you could hope to work with, and I feel totally privileged to be at least a tiny part of their incredible project. It’s the first hardback I’ve worked on, and it’s being printed by Oddi, who you may know as the printers behind some of McSweeney’s most beautifully finished books. It should be available in the next couple months.

Oh, also - Dolly is a hell of a typeface.
