Show & Tell

Design Bureau

Fantastic content, and design, from Chicago magazine Design Bureau. Published by Alarm Press, Design Bureau focuses on creating inspiring dialogue on design in its many forms. I especially enjoyed interviews with design icons Abbott Miller and John Gall. We’re also happy to mention that our friend, and fellow Austinite, Lindsey Turner is Design Director.


Watercolor by Veronika Kalacheva

Max Ritt posted Veronika Kalacheva‘s watercolor illustrations a while back and I had been meaning to post them. Watercolor illustrations have never been my favorite medium, but Max described her work in the exact way that I felt about it when I saw it. He said “…Every once in a while though, you stumble across some one’s work that revitalizes the medium and adds so much color and life into it that you can’t help, but love it again…” Well put Max.


Lego Space Shuttle Set

A couple of months back I found out that Lego was releasing a set called 10213 Shuttle Adventure. I was excited on too many levels to name. Basically the point of this post is to let you know that at PUBLIC SCHOOL my newest toy disguised as a desk decoration is this set. It’s pretty friggin’ cool.


Space Invaders Wedding Invite

We’re not normally in the business of showing off wedding invites on PUBLIC SCHOOL but clever design is clever design. Luke and Ella came up with this cool little invite for their recent wedding. Information that was susceptible to wedding crashers has been blurred out.


dont_copy

If you don’t want the Carmen Sandiego and Tetris games to stop being produced then you should not copy that floppy. Apparently sharing 3½-inch 1.44 MB discs will end the computer era as we know it. Take it from this rapping industry group spokesman.


Picture 2

Two Arms is a small creative agency in Brooklyn with nice work to its name.  We like to give credit where credit is due, and the Two Arms team deserves it.  Nice work, nice site.  Some examples of their stuff after the jump…


twenty120

Twenty 120 is an independent film collection featuring directors from all over the globe.  This is their third go round, so you may recall that we have featured the project before.  The collection houses 20 films, each 120 seconds long.  The best part about it is that these creative shorts, all made by super talented directors, are free of creative or client constraints.  Check them out… my top three this year are Bill Sneed,  Jerratt Moody, and Evan Silver.

Awesome short film from Will Hoffman and Daniel Mercadante. Every transition is creative and clever. Check out the video after the jump.

birthday

Just a friendly reminder from your friends at PUBLIC  SCHOOL that regardless of how your week is going, at least this didn’t happen to you. Stay upbeat our hardworking friends.


Do you like to look at cool stuff?! Do you enjoy not doing your work? Check out Poto & Cabenga. This silly online game created by Honeyslug features rad illustrations by London artist Richard Hogg and is quite entertaining.


Note Cards

Apparently you've read through all of the note cards. Good work.
