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.

Life is short and being able to capture it in a single image is one of the hardest things imaginable. Imagine trying to capture the emotion and detail that life holds. If you haven’t tried it, let me tell you, it’s hard, but it is beautiful when it’s done right, even if the results are a bit creepy. Varial Studio did just that with these photos.

Remember crayons? You know, the small wax sticks used to color with. Well it turns out they’re not just for coloring. Artist Christian Faur has created a new series using crayons as not only for their color, but also for their 3D qualities.

Let’s face it, some movies are crap. Between the overuse of Trajan Pro on movie posters and the predictable story lines, it’s hard to find a movie that’s worth the time you take to watch it. There are a few however, that every designer should see.
