Dieter Rams






While browsing through Dieter Rams incredible work that he designed for Braun I came across a couple of great black and white layouts that immediately caught my eye. I love that the photo is the hero, glorifying certain aspects of the product in the shot. Great typography.

Monocle


Ok Im sure you all have one of those magazines that when the next issue comes out you cant seem to put it down until it is dog eared and read cover to cover twice. Monocle magazine by Tyler Brulé. I love it so much and the best thing is we have a subscription here at work so I get to read it as soon as it is in our post box! Go buy it you won't be disappointed.

Postage Stamp design











One area of design which I think is definitely underrated is postage stamp design. I have always wondered about the process behind creating these tiny designs that cross borders and showcase a countries heritage to the world. I definitely prefer the odd shaped stamps like the circular stamps and triangular stamps. If you want to see numerous stamp designs just type "postage stamps" into google images.
