The owners of Papier Valise have an eye for lovely old labels. Vintage paper (and other provisions) are all available through their online shop (some in large quantities). This particular example reminds me of something that inspired, or could be re-created with that beautiful typeface Phaeton. #
A cleverly designed scan-tron (think: standardized test form) for teacher/professor reviews. #
While I'm on the topic of posters, this is a beautifully designed alphabet. Each character has a great feel, and an obvious attention to detail. #
I'd love to own a copy of this poster (or even better, to get one without the extra date/time crap on there). It's a great movie, and I think this is an awesome poster. "You killed the car." #
Something in these designs grabs me. I don't know if it's the informal, but obviously deliberate design. Be sure to see Alice's blog for other fine examples of her work. #
Possibly due to my recent thoughts being filled with how to use that blasted new typeface Phaeton, and its older feel... or maybe it's because these illustrations are so spot on and perfectly fitting such a classic book. Either way, they deserve an appreciative review once more. (or see the full flickr set) #
Sometimes I sure feel like I want to beat the $#!% out of something, and this would be the perfect tool. #
Butter, packaged in a ceramic crock, with a wonderfully designed label. I'm not into the whole organic shtick, but I might buy this butter just for the crock and label (which cleanly peels off). #
Charming concept and illustrations by Sutasinee C. Seitz encouraging family togetherness through camping. I've always enjoyed camping, and think if I were a kid I'd totally want one of these kits, with spare marshmallows and spare matches… and a knife, and rocks to throw, a good pad to sleep on, and a deck of cards. #
I really liked this wedding invitation, although it could have been a bit shorter. Nice layout, and usage of Futura. #
