Using off cuts of the rocking stool to minimise waste, John Green created these customised hangers to become part of his 'designing with waste range'.
Very noice.

Jordan Crane
The new McSweeney's arrived in the mail yesterday and the most exciting aspect of it (for me) is the Jordan Crane cover. Allira blogged about Jordan Crane here and his awesome multi layered cover he did for Michael Chabon. I really love how Jordan uses colour, flat and almost fluoro. this McSweeney's cover includes invisible ink which makes it twice as exciting! I had no idea how the ink disappeared until it came in contact with a warm hand. I can't make it totally disappear as our apartment is freezing and no amount of breathing hot air on it will work. DAMN YOU WINTER!

Vintage posters
Original travel posters from the 50's and 60's as found on Present & Correct facebook page. These are great for colour and pattern reference!
Tron
Last night I saw the 1982 movie Tron. We were blown away by the look of the film, there is something awesome about the look of neon computer graphics that don't seem to date. It seems a pretty odd Disney film as it is quite a dark sci fi feel and the look reminds me of Blade Runner. Plus Jeff Bridges is in it and he's kinda cute! So anyway we watched it because we are pretty excited about the new one, Tron Legacy, especially because Daft Punk have done the sound track. Apparently Daft Punk created the soundtrack on set in a DJ booth whilst they were filming the movie, cool!
