PUBLIC SCHOOL is a group of creative folk working on the east side of Austin together, yet not together. The same studio, different professions. Similar tastes, varying favorite Bob Dylan song. Consistently unified love for the Mexican food on the east side of town.
Our collective and individual clients include Chronicle Books, Conde Nast, Sweet Leaf Tea, Iron and Wine, Baylor University, Ogilvy & Mather, LIVESTRONG, Pearson Publishing, Stussy, Time Inc., NIKE, The University of Texas, The Sunday Times of London, as well as a few other folks.
The first one in the series of school posters Jay B designed is in thanks to Satch Grimley. Printed on 100lb Cougar Opaque paper it looks like its printed on some old school manilla folders. They’re hand-stamp-numbered on the front and 1st edition information is hand-stamped on the back. If you’re interested in picking one up, hit up the School Supplies site. We’ll throw in some stickers and buttons too. Matt’s shoes aren’t included. Detail shots after the jump.
Justin and Cody just collaborated on this poster for the band Holy F**k, who played in Austin last night at Mohawk.

Jay B was recently contacted by an ad agency in Europe to use one of his photos for an outdoor ad campaign. This is the final product he received this morning. We are told “70% MAZIAU. KAINOS.” is lithuanian for “70% less price”. We know a little bit of spanish and zero lithuanian, so that could say anything for all we know. We just nod our heads and say sure.
When you work in the advertising and creative industry long enough you come to realize that no good deed goes unpunished. This graphical representation of how some of the best creative ideas and concepts meet their big bad wolf or iceberg made my day. See the rest of the list after the jump.
Just last week I was fortunate to have a cybersitdown with LA based designer Scott Massey. He’s the main man behind the RRR Project; a collection of recycled art featuring the likes of Mike Perry (co-publisher), Kelly Lynn Jones, Anna Wolf, Deke Smith, Steven Harrington, and many more.
Look around your environment, see what you can save, pick it up, turn it over, and look at it in a different way.
After the jump, find out more about RRR, Point Break, and Scott himself.
Really loving the work of Christopher Brand, especially these designs for Penguin Classics. I also love how functional his site is for showcasing book covers.
