Phoenix Design Week

As you may know, I've been involved with the creation of Phoenix Design Week and I'm super excited about it! It's been an awesome opportunity to work with some great creatives around the valley and pretty cool to be part of this revolution in the local design community. I hope you can make it out, there are some really cool speakers, exhibits, films and lots of fun parties planned. Oh and speaking of exhibits, that's kinda my sector, if you're interested in submitting design work to show during the week, or create something for one of the exhibits we've created, check out the Exhibits Page. Hope to see you there!

Gorgeous Portfolio Book

I started working on this book back in January, so six months of consulting with the client, gathering images and copy, it's finally completed and printed! Kim at Good-Stock.com was a pleasure to work with and crafted a gorgeous portfolio. The leather cover is so soft, I want to take a nap on it. 

The printing turned out fantastic, the divider pages, which are Tizziano hand-made italian paper with debossed foil stamping are a highlight of the craftsmanship of the book. It really turned out nice. 

PAPERSHAPERS

Did anyone catch the PAPERSHAPERS exhibit in LA that just ended? Well, it was put on by Scion and GiantRobot. It looked really cool, here are some of the submissions I found that I thought were inspirational.

Layers of intricate xacto-knifing, Hunter Stabler has some pretty amazing paper work.






















There is a special place in my heart for these little miniature buildings by Ana Serrano. My college roomate was an artist who made miniature ceramic buildings and furniture, we always had them around the house. I love the satellite dish, nice touch.
