Design and marketing are a critical part of today’s modern economy. Not spending money on how your product or service is presented is like committing economic suicide. Remember you would never go to a store to buy a rotten apple; you buy the one that looks best.

The Other day, I came across these awesome posters by Kevin Tong. I thought I would share. I love their simplicity, not to mention the screen printed look. Reminds me a lot of the good old comic book days.

There is something that is just beautiful about typography. Maybe it’s the perfect blend between form function that just seems to work. I’m typically against messing with typography but whenever I saw this experimental typeface by Philippe Nicolas, I just wanted more.

So many fonts, so few decent ones. This one, is definitely a worthy font to have in you collection, not to mention you can download it for free! I have to give thanks to John Skelton for creating this typeface and willing to share it for free.

No matter your political preference, if you’re a designer, there is no doubt, you took notice of Obama’s campaign and why wouldn’t you? The campaign was one of the most graphically endowed campaigns in years. It was filled with rich typography and an amazing array of design mediums. Somehow the campaign transcended from a political competition to an art movement.

You know that feeling when you come across something that is just amazing? how you just want to share it? Well this is how I feel about this find by Enrico Ascoli. Enrico is, as he puts it, a “Sound Designer / Music Producer / Psychologist.” His work is just beautiful, especially this video.

Last week the New York Times Launched an ad that every type-nut needs to see. The ad was launched as part of their campaign to gain more foreign readers. I have no idea if the ad worked, but I do the ad looks absolutely stunning. Have a look.
