The beautiful and exciting Head of the Charles Regatta took place last weekend. I was delighted last month when Boston University contacted me to design the invitation for their Head of the Charles Brunch, an exclusive presidential brunch held in Boston University's DeWolfe Boathouse on the Head of the Charles starting line. They requested a vibrant upscale invitation and envelope. As always, it was a pleasure working with the wonderful folks at Boston University's Development & Alumni Relations Department!

The Mister is an avid record collector. I was admiring the label on this record today.

I have been enjoying the Top-Notch Type series by Eva Black over on Emmadime. The latest installment features a whimsical font designed by Eva herself, called Top-Notch Type. She created it using iFontMaker app. (I'm going to have to give this app a try!) Read more about the font and download it here.

Gorgeous hand lettering designed by Paul Carlyle and Guy Oring circa 1943. Found via Type Theory.

I was recently given the task of rebranding the New York Times best-selling series, Emily Windsnap. It was a challenging assignment. I was to redesign the series, but use the existing art (which is by the talented Sarah Gibb) in a new way. I created this playful type new treatment, reworked the art and then focused on giving each book its own distinct color palette. The full jackets can be seen here on my site. I am happy to report that the new design has been very well received and is out-selling the old look 2 to 1!

Loving this font, DejaVu Serif. It was recently featured as part of the fantastic Top Notch Type series by Eva Black on Emmadime. Check it out!

Love the elegant hairline font, Memoire, by Mike Jarboe. Find it here.

Beautiful typeface, Rosetta, designed by Alexandra Mendes.
 

Loving the font Frontage by Juri Zaech. It is so versatile!

I just discovered the Paperlux™ paper etching process. Paperlux™ is a design studio in Germany that has developed a paper etching process that creates a three dimensional impression of your art on paper. It is similar to embossing, but it doesn't leave a mark on the reverse side of the paper. The technique and their work is gorgeous.
