The Box Doodle Project

Clockwise from top left: Part of the box doodle project made by Alex Fux, Godunov Roma, David Hofmann, and Mateo

Have you seen the wonderful imagination behind the Boxdoodle project? I think it’s super fun and inventive — all you need is a box and lots and lots of imagination.

The Beautiful Project

Jeannette Ordas is a Vancouver, BC based illustrator and designer and she makes adorable note cards, gift tags and calendars for her shop The Beautiful Project. I think this card is very thoughtful, since I just came from the park and it seems like a lot of people needs some reminding about some picnic Ps and Qs.

James Gulliver Hancock

for an article on the internet application Twitter becoming overloaded.

James Gulliver Hancock is an artist trained in Visual Communications in Sydney, Australia who’s work (as his namesake) has traveled the whole world over. He was involved in artist projects and residencies in Indonesia, Austria, France, the U.K. and America and is currently located in Los Angeles — working on projects in Europe, America and Australia.

Part on his illustrations for Readers Digest Australia for stories on pets doing extraordinary things.

From his website:

His work is conceptually driven and is concerned with confusions of perception and embraces personal subjectivity. Born to psychologist parents he draws from an analysis of hyperchondria, obsession, and hyper-awareness. Throughout this investigation his work maintains a consistent charm, whimsy and poetic graphic sensibility.

There’s also wonderful things in his shop, such as posters screenprinted by hand and a print for each calendar month.
