Google's Saul Bass Tribute

I'm only familiar with Saul Bass' work in the sense that I recognize it when I see it. I wish I had taken a history of graphic design or something like that, because I would love to know more about this designer who designed some of my favorite movie title sequences.
I guess for now I'll have to settle for thoroughly reading his wikipedia page and google's tribute.

Great site to look for design jobs!

So Hannah introduced me to designspiration at the beginning of the semester, and recently they added a job board to their site. Since it's a design specific site, it'd be a great place to look for jobs for us designers!

Dinner at sunset with 50 of your closet friends one last time before graduation. Doesn't get better than that.

Starbucks stickers

Recently at work, I had to do some deep cleaning of the back room and these stickers fell off the shelves. More well-designed Starbucks branding!

Our 3 most popular dark roasts. Interesting that they are all represented by animals.

The rest of the dark roasts. I like Gold Coast's art deco look, but I don't like it as much in the french roast design. Not as well executed, lacks purpose. I can't say I'm crazy about the Italian Roast font, but it fits with the idea. And I like the idea of a little vespa there instead of doing the leaning tower of Pisa or something like that.

Medium/regular blends. I LOOOVE the iced coffee design, so cute and summery. The other three go together nicely, and it is the classic/throwback Starbucks branding, but I like what its moved more towards now. 

Holiday blends and Guatemala Antigua. I've always been a fan of Starbucks' Christmas branding. It's fun and festive. 

While I'm talking about coffee branding, I came across this picture.

Is it just me, or is everyone and their mother using these two fonts, and especially together? I'm sick of seeing them both. It's not original or cool anymore. Blah, I'm font fatigued.

Look at this big ass tree. PHOTO INSPIRATION/EMPOWERMENT

So I feel very empowered today because I changed my tail lights all by myself! YEAH, STORNG INDEPENDENT FEMALE.

Now look at this tree. It's growing all over the place, don't give a crap where, it's like a honey badger.

the previously mentioned awkward ging.

if this tree can keep doing it's thing, WE CAN DO ANYTHING GUYS.

FPO Engagement Ring

I thought of all people my designer friends could laugh at this with me. For placement only.

Er, post note about script fonts.

So I know I just blogged about how I don't like script fonts, so of course after posting about that, I immediately find exceptions to my previous statement. 

AceJet had this post about Found Type Friday.

These are my favorites.

I love this on a baseball tee.
