Matt Keers
August 13th, 2008You know you’ve found something special when you look at a portfolio and feel like you’ve been punched in the face and kicked in the baby maker. This is how I felt when I saw Matt Keers work yesterday. It’s amazing and he just graduated college. I wish I could hire this kid.

James Windsor
August 11th, 2008James Windsor is a british designer who has a solid portfolio but it’s his work for artist Chong Bin Park that really caught my eye. The project consists of an invite and catalogue for an exhibit at the Corn Exhange Gallery in Edinburgh. James uses a simple and minimal style along with bible paper to created a piece that is elegant and visually stunning. The International Style in it’s purest form.

Super Rare Design Books On Ebay

I was just doing some ebay searching and found auctions for two VERY VERY rare graphic design books.
Publicity and Graphic Design in the Chemical Industry* (Chemie Werbung Und Grafik) — Published in 1967.
Moderne Werbe Und Gebrauchs Grafik Published in 1980.
Both are part of the ABC Verlag series of design books and are authored by Hans Neuburg.
I own both books and dropped a nice chunk of change for them, but they’re so worth it. You almost never find these two books anywhere so this is a super rare opportunity for some lucky person. I wanted to give you guys the heads up so one of you could grab them first. No bids on them yet so you can probably get them for a good price. And no, I have nothing to do with these auctions. Just wanted to spread the love.
