Kama Sutra
30th January 2012
Part of Penguin’s Graphic Classics series, where every classic re-edited is paired with an artist to produce collectable works, the cover of this new edition Kama Sutra has been illustrated by vector queen Malika Favre.
A playful, bold alphabet makes up the words Kama Sutra, while the colours are a nod to the books Indian origins. With original text by Vātsyāyana and no pictures inside, I think in this case you can definitely judge a book by it’s cover. Sexy.

I’m procrastinating from my wedding to do list, by making animated wedding to do list gifs.
Crazy.

After buying Alex some Tattly™ tattoos for Christmas I got all excited about wedding tattoos for Si and I! Check out Tattly’s Deming lettraset tattoo I’ve just bought.
Oh yeah!
BLANK {space}
22nd December 2011
The other day I discovered BLANK {space} – an sweet little store-cum-gallery that is literally on my doorstep. It’s tiny and hidden away behind big black grills, but inside it’s light and pretty and full of gorgeous letterpress stationary *sigh*, unique prints and limited edition works of art.
Another awesome Cape Town find. Yay!
Playful / Pablo Alfieri
19th December 2011
Whenever I see new work by Pablo Alfieri I can’t help but sigh. It’s so beautiful and I’m always inspired by what he produces. His ideas are quite simple on the whole but he executes them in such a polished way. Colourful, bright and bold and usually with a little twist. Amazing.
Check out more of the Argentinian designer’s work on flickr.

Cats Let Nothing Darken Their Roar

Oh me oh my! I was doing some searching for a 2012 calendar and just look at this beauty I stumbled upon!
Cats Let Nothing Darken Their Roar is printed in 4 colours on uncoated stock with a black ribbon binding. Designed by Helsinki based designer Noa Bembibre, every one of the 700 copies is quality controlled by Bembibre herself. I think I would like one of these for Christmas please.
Kabel
22nd November 2011
Kabel is the newest typeface offering by Font Fabric. Designed by Mathias Nösel, I think it fits rather nicely on Between the Neon and the Sea. Don’t you?
