This week’s posts come to you from the talented folks of Studio 254: designer and illustrator Will Bryant, illustrator and educator Kate Bingaman-Burt, designer Clifton Burt, designer Tina Snow Le and artist, designer and educator Jason Sturgill. Enjoy!

A friendship born from their shared love of communal celebration and craft-making has brought them together to create a new system.
New Yorker design duo Louis DeCicco and Mari Ouchi combine to make up FAUX/real. They’ve positioned themselves on a fine line between the fields of art/design/fashion/interiors/architecture. They don’t necessary belong to any of them but satisfy all.
Anna Lomax is a life size illustrator born and bred in South London. She’s inspired by low tech materials and experimenting in placing things in different settings to change the context of unique objects.
OKFocus is a forward thinking, technology driven agency #based in New York City…and perhaps some of the most fun people on the internet. Clients include Google, Bruno Mars + Instragram, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and hopefully Kanye West for Datpiff in the near future.
