Miles says Hello!

Woohoo! Got an email from Miles Davis today. He said Hello, and wanted to sell me some software :-D

Old letters

This summer we went to the museum at the castle here in Malmö. It found some interesting pieces of wood carvings.

I also saw some maps, with the same kind of lettering that inspired Gábor, to make Incognito

Quality Faux Small Caps

The hotel connected to the Concert Hall (opposite our office) has changed their logo. The old neon logo had a flair of late 80's to it. The new one...eh I'm not sure what to say about those fake small caps.

Probably they couldn't afford a designer to make a new logo, so they probably had some office clerk make if straight out of MS Word using faux Small Caps. A true feeling of quality.

Happiness is...

...getting Bionicle's the morning you turn 5 years old.

Happy Birthday Elliott :-D We love you!

Can you please send me the logo in ´pectoral´?

“It’s amazing how well you interpreted the brief. This piece is exactly what we wanted, you could not have made it any better, I love it. But I also think it’s too good. This is for a bigger client, a more international one. We’re not like that. See if you can do something shittier that we can use.”
