“Out-of-print PANTONE by Letraset posters that were used back in the old school days of print.” = vintage pantone love. Oh, you, pretty poster, will you be my valentine? So beautiful it hurts. The website is also quite mesmerizing. And for more Pantone goodies, the previous post.

Designer’s items are like a big private joke to the world.

Everybody is talking about the latest Rubitone (Pantone Rubik’s cube). But what about a nice Panton Mug? Much more useful, since you drink at least a dozen coffee per day.

All of this feels like we’re some kind of secret army, waiting in the dark to tell un-understandable jokes such as “Go to Hell, vetica!” or “Ah! You’re badly kerned this morning”. If by chance, you’re also part geek, biker, cheerleader, or any other human group (yeah, shit happens.) you’re probably surrounded by those subtles yet incredibly oppressive private jokes. It makes us feel special, huh.
