Hero was at the Grammys with Ringo Starr

Last night Ringo Starr sported a tee designed by Hero, to the Grammys. It was a shirt we designed for Electric Fetus, an amazing independently owned record store in Minneapolis. We might be geeking out just a tad bit today!!

Here's a close up of the graphic!

Time to drool over House Industries again...

Every time an email shows up in my inbox from House Industries, I can expect I am going to be wanting most of what is contained. This week's email is no exception, they are featuring their new Holiday Objects and of course, I want way too many things. (Hint hint, Christmas is coming up - I am making it easy for you, buy me pretty much ANYTHING from House and I will be happy.)

Check out all of House's wares on their website and if you are in NYC today, you'd be stupid not to hit up their one day Pop-Up Shop at the Type Directors Club to touch and feel both old and new Housewares in person:

House Industries Pop-Up Shop
November 19th from 11:30am-6pm
Type Directors Club
347 West 36 Street, Suite 603

Our pals Allison and Craig from Strawberryluna, got me the Ampersand Cutting Board for my birthday last month and it rules my face!! I have it on display in our kitchen and it makes me happy every single morning. (thanks again guys)

Type Bags

Check out these fabulous type bags from da da da studio that I found after checking out Delicious Industries' blog post about their tees. Available in Avant Garde Medium, Frutiger Black, Helvetica Bold (shown above) Helvetica Bold 108p (shown above). I of course LOVE both Helvetica versions. Of course the tags are equally as cool as the bag itself. Check out all the bags here.

I want this doormat

So geeky and so amazing!! I need this "enter" key doormat!

A website dedicated to mid-century design aesthetics, utility and ideals, The Mid-Century Modernist.

Wow, this is a wonderful collection, whether it be authentic or inspired, architecture, ads or products, there are just so many great gems to geek out over!!! I think I could spend all day on this site.
