Lovely lady Lauren Beard has opened her very own Etsy shop, go and purchase all your high quality illo based brilliance now. Thank you.
I've been doing a lot of thinking and writing for Digit this week, so in a self serving manner, would you like to look at one of my posts and tell me how you are? Thank you.
Illustrator Zara Picken strikes again with updates to her blog, and some playful self-promotional pieces including the two above. Have a little scroll through her blog, there are some really beautiful tactile pieces.
So, I've been sneakily moonlighting, well, doing my day job really. The Digit blog is finally live! So check it out, add it to your RSS feeds and soak up all that great thinking from a bunch of great thinkers. Well I would say that wouldn't I? Please comment if the urge takes you, join the conversation.
Dear Trekkers, there is much hype around JJ Abrams' latest film but maybe cast an eye over their official website and raise your designer eyebrow in Spock-style shock!
Problem: gorillas can attack/cause incidents when you make eye contact
OK, so it's an oldy, but the idea is still bang up to date. The crowd cheers as you open the box to your new football boots, dreams are made of this sort of stuff! Oh to be a child again.
If this diagram is anything to go by, casting a quick eye over what I've done today, I'm at Assistant Creative Director level! Woohoo, some days I'm even at Creative Director status, champagne here I come. Thanks Igor, for this find.
Innocent have a lot to answer for, it has spawned numerous chatty, friendly styles of writing. I like to think their hearts are in the right place, after all, they are selling fruit in cute little bottles, the man from Del Monte is doffing his hat in admiration, everyone likes fruit right? 
Sometimes an idea just fits, perfectly. I am in no way suggesting that Apple are poisonous or misleading. Think Different. 
I blogged a little while about this Vetiver poster that I coveted, well I will covet no more, I'm the proud owner of edition 11/20, and it's a beaut. I'm waiting to frame it, but it's on the most delicious thick watercolour paper, it seems a shame to place it behind glass.
This was a surprise birthday present and it's just beautiful and suits my Brompton down to the ground. It's a great piece of classic English design, so I thought I'd share the packaging. 
It's in my genes of course! Great little Chupa Chups advert by DDB Spain, although it clearly works in any language, found via the appropraitely named Inspire Me Now tumblr
It's much anticipated and if the trailer is anything to go by, Spike Jonze's interpretation of Maurice Sendak's classic book 'Where the Wild Things Are' is going to be sensational.
Simple idea, nice execution, a potential DIY project. Let me know if this inspires you to make something similar, I'm going to be on the look out for an old test tube rack now...
I have a moral dilemma, it's a cake so that's good, but it's in burger form so that's... oh, good. Ah, no dilemma at all it seems, just double delicious. 
Popular, influential and notorious. A geeky pleasure, if I were a typeface I would be Bembo or Bodoni, what would you be? Now there's a conversation stopper.
What a great way to start the day, I can only imagine how satisfying this chocolate tastes, look at it in all it's archaic splendour. 
My parents have a dog called Kip. Kip is very naughty and has picked up the pseudonym Kippy no no! Such is the regularity of his naughtiness, it turns out he is not alone, introducing Eli, better known as Eli, no!
I'm a little preoccupied with pitch madness at the moment, normal service will resume shortly. Until then, imagine me like this grey lady, with a face full of cumulonimbus. Via Booooooom
A small but perfectly formed batch of 25 pop up books, Pop Up Porn, have been hand made by Michele Chun and Miya Saito, those little minxes. Available to buy from Sometimes Books for $50 or a card for $5. 
Some interesting objects inspired by the mundane, don't they scrub up well? More product design goodies by Jason Taylor
The ginger gene is dying out. In 100 years there will be no more strawberry blondes, gingas, carrot tops, copper knobs, flamed haired beauties, no nothing!
Do you ever see something that just makes you reflect for a moment or makes the world seem to pause?
