Form In A Form

This beautiful form for Eames chairs dates back to the 1950’s. Personally, I’ve never seen a form so visually interesting.

Karoly Kiralyfalvi from Budapest has an extensive portfolio of excellent work from posters to sneakers. Definitely worth a look.

Here is an excellent workbook designed by Rich Lyons for the Helvetica 50 exhibit. I asked Rich if it was for sale but unfortunately it was only a one-off. He did say that if there was enough interest he would make them available for sale. So if you dig this workbook, email Rich and let him know you want one!

Biblioteca UPC

I wrote about them before but I was checking out Form Fifty Five and saw this amazing new project by Lamosca for the UPC library. Simple. Elegant. Clean. Perfect. Swiss design and grid systems at their best. I would kill for a project like this.
