By way of the Post Expose blog I heard about what sounds like a really cool exhibition by Chris Rubino, called “The Center of Something”. The show opened May 30th and will be on view in a Times Square storefront…

I love Threadless. (They’re on the cover of this month’s Inc. Magazine, by the way.) Even though their shirts aren’t always my style, I usually take advantage of their sales to pick up a few. And this week happens to…
I’ve been pretty excited about Post Expose since it opened, even though I’ve unfortunately not had a chance to get there yet. They’re a screen printing and design center located in Long Island City—right around the corner from me (which…
Like I’ve said before, Duffy & Partners consistently produces great work. So I was excited to learn yesterday that they recently completed an identity project for a new restaurant (an area of design I’m particularly interested in). Tall Tales-Real Food…
I subscribe to quite a few email newsletters, some of which are dedicated entirely to type. Yesterday I received the Font Shop newsletter highlighting some new typefaces in their shop, and I always love at least a few of them.…
If you like well-designed t-shirts you should know about Rumplo. The description on their site reads as follows: Rumplo is a place to find brilliant artist-designed T-shirts from around the world. Rumplo is also a T-shirt community — a place…
Full poster can be seen below I love working with ampersands whenever I get the chance. So when I came across this blog dedicated entirely to the glyph, I immediately bookmarked it. One thing that caught my eye right away…
One of the highlights of the conference was the Type Director’s Club exhibit (TDC54) at the conference. I love the books cataloging these competitions. I personally own Typography 26 and Typography 28 and will definitely be adding this new one…
Another HOW Conference session I attended was “What it Takes to be Your Own Boss”, given by Ilise Benun of Marketing Mentor. I had previously attended one of their workshops locally and it was extremely helpful, so I was excited…
Another presenter I was really excited about was Charles Anderson. I love the look and feel of all the work that comes out of their studio, and I really love French paper, who they partner with on many of their…
Another session I was excited about was the one given by David Schimmel of And Partners here in New York. I’ve always admired their work so I was excited to hear what he had to say, especially about this topic…
These fun typographic illustrations from INVDR made the blog rounds a couple of weeks ago but I thought they’re still worth mentioning. I love the playful simplicity. He screenprinted some t-shirts which may or may not still be available. And…
Just came across this blog via the Daily Monster. It covers a bunch of the sessions I didn’t get to see, so take a look.
In Monday’s second session I attended “Financial Planning for Solo Designers” given by Shel Perkins, the author of Talent is Not Enough: Business Secrets for Designers. While a lot of the information didn’t really apply to me, some of it…
Monday morning’s session presented by Joe Duffy was one I was really looking forward to. I love the work that comes out of Duffy and Partners and I was really excited to get some insight into their process. His presentation…
This past Sunday I headed into the Hynes for the opening Keynote address, given by Jeremy Gutsche of Trend Hunter Magazine, entitled “Creating a Culture of Innovation”. Gutsche was an excellent speaker and his talk and made some great points…
Well, I really did mean to have my HOW recaps up long before now, but I didn’t realize how much being at the conference would take out of me. It was a bit exhausting inhaling all of that information in…
Well, the first full day of the HOW conference is over and it’s been awesome so far. I went to 4 really great sessions today and got my hands on tons of free stuff at the resource center; so there’s…
