Stefan Sagmeister, Things I have learned in my life so far
All I can say is "WOW" a much watch!!
A while back I posted about Stefan Sagmeister's project called, "Things I have learned in my life so far", this truly inspiring glimpse into this project is simple, beautiful, and poetic. This project grew from a list in Stefan's diary during a year long commercial hiatus. He returned to paid work with greater freedom from clients and himself, and created a series of projects spelling out personal truths--"worrying solves nothing," "trying to look good limits my life," and other simple, meaningful statements.
Watch this and buy the book (I just ordered it now).

Alexander Girard and InterfaceFLOR
Official distributor of Alexander Girard designs máXimo recently announced its collaboration with InterfaceFLOR, a producer of modular carpet tiles.
The collection, which will launch this spring, will feature Girard's La Fonda del Sol sun imagery, along with the cheerful color palette we've come to associate with the revered mid-century designer. The partnership seems apropos—Girard wrote a letter to Herman Miller president D.J. Depree back in 1953 expressing interest in creating a modular carpet tile system. Some fifty plus years later the market is just catching up.

Flatstock 16 - SXSW - Austin, TX
FLATSTOCK 16 is being held in Austin, Texas in conjunction with the world's premier Music Festival South By Southwest. Poster artists from around the world will hit The Austin Convention Center for the bi-annual convention sponsored by the American Poster Institute, dedicated to the promotion of music poster art and design worldwide. You've heard the sordid tales of deluxe poster prints sold to you the fans by the artists themselves, now come see for yourself. FLATSTOCK 16 is FREE for everyone so come one come all. Show up early and be ready to be overwhelmed with amazing posters (you might want to bring some dough too since you won't want to leave empty handed.) FLATSTOCK 16 is an all-ages event.
Hero has a double booth this year, so be sure to come by and say "Hi!", we're gonna have loads of new stuff. Including exclusive t-shirt designs, etc.

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…."

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!
