Things I have learned in my life so far


Created by Stefan Sagmeister, this amazing blog was spawned from a list, under the same title, that Stefan created in his own personal diary, and he now extends this question to you:

"What have you learned in your life so far? What is it that you are fairly sure about? What is it that you believe in by now?
Please do write it down beautifully. Design it digitally, photograph it, draw it, scan it and upload it. Use any media that works for you, paint, sculpture, film…."

It is an awesome collection of all kinds of typography treatments along with some truly amazing thoughts and insights from people all around the world. Check it out here www.thingsihavelearnedinmylife.com

French Dunny Trading Party at Hero Thursday 2/21

Concrete Rings




I've wanted these since I first saw them, and they are back in stock now... the 'corner' and 'rock' concrete ring designs by studio 22 are available exclusively online through the designboom shop.
when the rings first went on sale earlier this year they sold out within days - so be quick this time to avoid disappointment!
