Outside On The Inside

I'm posting this only because last year, the company I work for created a brochure for a specific group of mountain lodges that, in one of the photos, used a large piece of moss as a bath mat.

Beautiful simplicity. If I could afford a loft half this beautiful I would be happy.

Display

Display is a new magazine created by my good friend and former co-worker Jenn and one of her friends. In their words "With emphasis on Canada's own grassroots design community, Display seeks to showcase the culture of design. By designers, for designers, Display is a platform for all things creative."

This first edition was just sent to the printer. Soon you can buy it, read it and love it. I know I will.

Well Done

This is by far one of the coolest annual reports I've ever seen. The couple dozen annuals I've worked on pale in comparison to this. At least in my not so humble opinion. Not that I haven't worked on some interesting annual reports. I'm pretty sure several of them have won awards and I've had the pleasure of working with some incredibly talented designers.
