The uber talented David of This Studio informed me about this new A0 sized 2009 calendar that he’s designed. Check out his Flick page for more photos of this gorgeous specimen.

Site Navigation

So a few people have been contacting me, asking how to see previous posts other than the two on the homepage. The theme didn’t offer such a feature, but I found a plugin that adds “Previous” and “Next” links below the main posts. So now you can navigate back through the previous posts, two at a time.

Please let me know if you run into any issues with the new feature.

Monopoly + Helvetica

I love this gorgeous redesign of Monopoly by french designer Florent Guerlain using Helvetica. My favorite board game set in my favorite type face. Paradise.

Check out the rest of the portfolio as well, there is some good stuff in there.
