Jazz LP covers

As research for a CD cover I've been looking at old, LP jazz covers - particularly Blue Note records. I found a website called Vintage Vanguard that has a huge resource of artwork. I got these album covers from there. xxxx

Posters

Here's a couple of great posters I found looking through both Balladora and manystuff. I'll put more specific details about who did them asap. xxxx

Recent digital fabrics

Here's some nice digitally printed fabric I've seen around lately (from top to bottom): Basso & Brooke; Australian designers Trust Fun, and a top by Bernhard Willhelm which looks much more vibrant in real life. Images are from their respective websites. xxxx

Malene Landgreen

I recently saw a painting of Malene Landgreen's on the cover of a Scandanavian design magazine. She's a contemporary Danish painter who also does installed architectural works. You can see her work from a recent exhibition here. xxxx

Nick Knight, John Young

John Young's 2008 paintings (above) look like abstract versions of Nick Knight's earlier photographs (below). You can see more of John Young's work here, and Nick Knight here. xxxx

Blogs > Mad about Design

I just got this book in the post: Blogs Mad about Design, which is a 528 page, hard covered book about design blogs. Mine's included, (I've scanned the pages below) as well as lots of others I'm looking forward to exploring. It was put together by Mao Mao Publications.

Ryue Nishizawa

I've been a bit obsessed with looking at home renovations and architecture as our house is in desperate need of a revamp. Ryue Nishizawa is a Japanese architect I'm in love with. He loves to mix up the indoor and outdoor spaces as much as possible. The top image is his office space, and the other two are residential jobs he's done. He and his partner Kazuyo Sejima will be designing the Serpentine Gallery pavillion which will be open from July to October 2009. I got the above images here, here and here.

Colourful times in BKK

Lots of fun at Reflections hotel in Bangkok. (see post below). xxxx

Market Stall, Thai fashion and some zines

Next Saturday I'm gonna do a market stall at Glebe, selling clothes from Hey Pilgrim, a Bangkok streetwear label I found a while back. I'll also sell second-hand clothes, and if I get time to finish them, some zines I've been making. My friend Anna is gonna do the stall with me selling handmade cards. 

The clothing images above are from Hey Pilgrim (you can see more on their website). And the images below are the cover of a zine I'm making about plant cuttings and a previous zine that I'll convert to black and white (and perhaps spot red). xxxx

Eric Nitsche's Flickr Set

Via AceJet 170 I found this beautiful Flickr Set by Eric Nitsche. Above are a couple of my favourite images from there. xxxx
