We heart The Curiosity Shoppe. (Yeah, me and about 60% of the female population in SF. And maybe 25% of males) They have a new exhibit up by Treatzone, another gem of San Francisco. I visited during their opening and yes, there was candy corn and Tecate. MmMmmmmm. And lovely ghosts painted on postcards.

Jody Barton’s illustrations are like cheesecake in the cake world. More substance, addictive and so extremely delicious. Continue indulging here.

Thank Buckminster Fuller for the architectural awesomeness otherwise known as the geodesic dome. And while you’re at it, thank HunterGather for this lovely illustration representative of the futurist himself.

Chad Hagen. The cause of my mental gymnastics by trying to interpret the term, “nonsensical infographics.” Good grief.

Most well known for his illustrations of the ever-so-lovable Miffy, don’t get an ideas that Dick Bruna is a one-trick pony when it comes to his work. These book covers are the bomb dot com.

New favorite website brought to you by design studio Young. Because if you don’t want to learn something new everyday, you obviously never watched Reading Rainbow growing up. And I’m sorry.

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens,
bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens,
brown paper packages tied up with strings,
these are a few of my favorite thingssssssssssss.
The work of Gareth Morgan makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.
