- Amelia’s Magazine (humming along ever so nicely in an online format) conducted an interview with dinosaur drawing legend Andy Council. You can’t get much cooler than his Urban Scrawl Dino (above), Trainerceratops or Graffaceratops. I think he should draw a new species of Custardsliceosaw!
- Steven Heller muses on the desire for hand lettering in modern design.
- The Sartorialist writes about Fashion (capital f!) versus looking nice. You all know which camp I’m in – fashion is personal.
- An interactive history of Mad Magazine fold ins. I loved reading retro Mads as a kid! Yes, I was a sardonic child.
- Love Blog points us to a London pop-up bookstore. It’s open till 10pm – make it a date.
- I’ve been working on a public transport project and came across these (mostly bizzare) designer bus stops. The stop in Spain’s Casar de Caceres is gorgeous though.
- Lee Scratch Perry as a style icon. He dresses like the dub Natsha Khan!
- “This guy is the master of tilt-shift photography – he combines it with stop motion photography for a really cool effect. Check out Mardi Gras, Helpless and the Bathtub ones. They’re all good really.”
