The Jetsons Family Portrait

An oldie from last year apparently, but I just came across it on M&W’s Tumblr. This image a wall lined with The Jetsons family portraits was once owned by Kanye West in his former LA home. Man, I would love this in my house (I’m a huge Jetsons fan)!

Carolyn Sewell’s Amazing Sketchbook

Wow! Carolyn Sewell’s sketchbook sure is something! Bold, curvy lines and highly detailed illustrations make me wish I had doodled more in my own sketchbooks (or kept more sketchbooks to begin with). Check out her whole collection here.

Intel Visual Life With Michael Wolff

Designer Michael Wolff is featured in this short Intel Visual Life documentary about how he views the world and lives in it as a person obsessed with everything that is visual. I love the different colors of everything that he has — umbrellas, mugs, pencils, etc. His home must be fun to live in.

A2591 Minimizes The Effects of Overt Branding

The folks over at A2591 took on a lovely project of trying to simplify the branding of some major products. I’m sure a lot of you feel like packaging these days can get a bit out of hand, A5291 uses the great example of the Microsoft iPod packaging video that went around a couple years [...]

Dana Tanamichi
