Blog Love: Designer Daily

Dana Córdova — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 02:02:12 +0000

I happily came across this site tonight (how, with all my time on the net, I haven’t found them before now is beyond me). They have extensive sections ranging from art and design inspiration to how-to tutorials and interesting articles. Check it out. This recent post on “infography” really grabbed me.

Blog Love: Dear Nike

Dear Nike is the photo diary of Nike Sofia Amorina Felldin from Sweden. I love how she juxtaposes rare finds and modern shots.

My latest closet type-nerd obsession is We Love Typography brought to you by the creators of I Love Typeography. Essentially, an image bookmarking site specifically for type-related media. Check it out.

Blog Love: Grain Edit

Dana Córdova — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 00:37:16 +0000

Grain Edit is a fantastic blog that focuses exclusively on classic design work from
the 1950s-1970s and contemporary designers who draw their inspiration from
the time period. I never thought you could find enough work inspired by a measly
30 years but they do, and succeed at it.

I really like this post about a rare book of Russian posters from the 70s,

This one on Polish book covers,

and this one on Bulgarian designer, Stefan Kanchev.

Blog Love: Boubou Tea Time

Dana Córdova — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 12:59:42 +0000

Just want to take a moment to give it up for Boubou Tea Time. Visiting this girl’s blog is how I would like to imagine visiting Paris is like. Her creative, chic and signature vision is like a mini-vacation, I love it. I’m quite certain she is probably half my age, 102lbs and doesn’t have a care in the world—but, well, that’s refreshing to see sometimes.
