Playful idea! I want to know what a knitted booger would look like. Also makes a lovely scarf. I can’t help but think how popular analog techniques have become in design, but one thing is clear, Miss Rebecca Maeve Manley did it WELL.

Typecube are really neat building blocks for typophiles. They assist in the construction of modular letterforms by having a formal component on each of the six sides of the cube so the possibilities are endless. It creates structure, but gives each user flexibility. Currently in production, I will definitely pick up a set or two. (a set comes with 64 cubes) yay!

Among the endless uses of pvc pipes that don’t include plumbing, Lee Stokes has a brilliant idea as well. Pipe Font! This was created as a positive message for communities in Britain who were victims of flooding.

In preparation for leaving to Spain and France later this week, it seems only appropriate to post design work from those places. Helmo, a France-based design studio, has some really great work. (note: the web site has is only in French) Above is from a project entitled, Betes de Mode, where they overlapped portraits of animal and human. Now pull out your 3-D glasses and the optical illusion is even more stunning. And a little psychedelic.
