Mhhhh! Time of the year for a new calendar, isn’t it.
What about this beautifully illustrated one, printed on recycled paper? I think I’ll get tempted.

Pensez-y

Posted November 16th, 2008 in Graphic Design & trends, Illustration by Zélia

Some of my best-friends are graphic designers.

 

screen-prints

 

I’ve promised fabulous screen-prints in an older post, and here they are. “Pensez-y” is a diploma project by the french designer Solène B.
Not only can she speak louder than me, but she’s also the nicest girl ever — two qualities I envy her for. Her diploma project is an humorous take on the domestic chore dispatch : don’t you wish that the person that share your life with could stop putting his socks behind the fridge?

She made several kits made of “how-to” books, magnet memos and posters for everyone to keep an harmonious relationship toward the dish-wash or the toilet cleaning. Each poster is screen-printed by hand on fluorama paper, white layer first and then black lineart. Each poster comes in several bright fluo colors.

Inspiration

Posted October 31st, 2008 in Everyday life, Graphic Design & trends by Zélia

Ahah, week-end time. Time to get some inspiration from the week!

 

  • First, I saw this wonderful illustrator called Milk or Iogyu, I’m not really sure. I love her work… Check it out.
  • Second, and a completly different subject , military development of an amnesia beam. I sometimes wish that sci-fi wasn’t so true.  
  • And because the world is not so dark, 400 hundred love letters. Just to remember to tell those who matter that you love them. That’s always great to hear.
  • As seen on SwissMiss (Did I tell you how much this blog rocks?), a flick’r pool of vintage movie title endings. 
  • Inspire me now! How can one live without this blog? Each post is a pure concentrate of bright idea.

I know this post is quite weird. Nothing seems to fit in there, but that’s probably because the week was quite unpredictable too.
I need some rest, and then, I promess, I’ll make one of those great post that makes a blog famous. For now, I enjoy being another Jane Doe in the blogsphere. Ahah!
Enjoy your free-time, have fun and a good halloween party!

And remember what David Bowie said in Labyrinth, “So, the Labyrinth is a piece of cake, is it? Well, let’s see how you deal with this little slice…”  
(I swear I didn’t do any drugs. I’m just over-tired. Sorry!!)
