There is a great video documenting the process of creating the cover art for Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3 album. I think the art it self is pretty cool and I love all the work that Dan Tobin Smith, the artist that created the Blueprint 3 cover does, but I really feel like this cover doesn’t make [...]
The Last People crew have a new site going. Check it out HERE. Thanks to Brian Barnhart for the heads up.

Grain Edit has a rad collection of vintage Porsche posters from the 60′s and 70′s on their site. I could definitely live with any one of these poster blown up huge in my house, the only problem would pick picking one… Check out the Porsche posters on Grain Edit.
Notcot has just posted a great look inside the Incase offices in San Francisco. Black floor, white walls, great furniture, and some Krink… How can you go wrong?
Not only is Yimmy’s Yayo one of my favorite image blogs, it was the first site like this that I bookmarked. If you haven’t checked out Yimmy’s yet, the basic concept is to share random inspiration, or “Visual crack for the ocular fiend.”. Everyday when I open up my RSS reader, I get excited to [...]
Copenhagen design studio Applied Projects has a wonderful portfolio of print and web design with a great mix of music, fashion, and lifestyle projects. Check out a bunch of their work after the jump.
I’ve been stoked on animated gifs lately and I’m pretty sure I’m not alone, because there’s a lot of really creative animations popping up all over the place. Moments ago via Joe Cookie, I was linked to this site called Three Frames and couldn’t resist posting a link. As you can imagine from the title, [...]
Graphic designer Adam Roye, who’s responsible for a serious amount of design work that goes on inside BMX has a great video profile on ESPN. Click here to check out Adam Roye’s profile.
The most interesting thing about doing Defgrip is finding out who’s interested in this stuff. Ten years ago Lou Cappareli drove the DK team around the midwest in a dually announcing our Wal Mart shows and destroying our tour vehicles. Now, he runs The Greenhouse and sends me links like THIS.
Andy Chung hit me with a link to a Flickr site from a Vancouver photographer with a bunch of rad 3d animated gifs. Check out his Flickr page here and make sure to click on the full size images to see the animation in action!
Stoked on this mural project going on in Philly that Stephen Powers is part of. Click HERE to check out some of the work so far. Definitely click on the photos to see them large. From the site: Love Letter is literally a love letter painted on the walls facing the Market elevated train. 40 [...]
Ever since Mike posted the article about the Maserati garage contest the other day, I’ve been spending a bit of time googling old sports cars. The Ferrari 512 BBi that was parked in the garage got me going and after googling around for some images of a 1950 Abarth 205 Vignale Berlinetta, I came across [...]
As long as I’ve known Jim Bauer, he’s always fantasized about living in some sort of industrial Batcave type minimalist bachelor residence where you could park your car in your living room. Building your Batcave out of glass and perching it on a Brentwood hillside ups the overall fantasy factor condsiderably. Jim sent me some [...]
There is a great interview on Honeyee with the one and only Shawn Stussy. It’s the first interview that I’ve actually seen in English on Honeyee and I’m excited because hopefully this is the beginning to more features in English. There was also another amazing Shawn Stussy post on Juxtapose with a nice photographic look [...]
I just came across the above short on Yimmys Yayo. Part of me is amused by the premise mixed with the slow-mo, while another part of me thinks its comical due to the over-dramatic music, while another part of me thinks my time was robbed. You decide. Click below for “three ways of melting a [...]

Mark Weaver is one of those graphic designers that I was into as soon as I saw his stuff. The mix of random images and clean presentation made everything so interesting to look at. When talking about his work, Mark says – “I try to give these old images new meaning and new life”, which [...]
