Spotted at Bungalow in Estevan Village and Paboom on Fort Street. Fred’s has fresh, slightly retro vector graphics, great fonts and hilarious product names. “GIN & TITONIC™, sink one in your drink “. “AIRFORK ONE™, for perfect in-flight meals.” I totally need one of these.

Again, can’t find websites for either Bungalow (2525A Estevan Avenue) or Papoom (641 Fort Street)!

I dropped into Sitka yesterday and saw a copy of the Rifflandia 2009 Festival Guide. It’s a looker. Anyone who has a passion for print media will get a kick out of the description on the website, “The festival mags have arrived, freshly inked. They smell like crayons, and new school supplies… perfect for all you back to schoolers. You can smell it from across the street… mmm waxy. Come and grab one from the HQ (523 Pandora).” The pages have a nice tooth and matte finish and there’s great use of typography and colour. I’d love to give credit to the designer, but the only reference I can find is to the “scum boys”. Obviously not cool enough to know who they are.

Rifflandia Music Festival

Rifflandia Music Festival

The website is totally worth checking out. There’s a blog roll on the left to follow, music to listen to and the schedule/lineup to check out. There’s also great discounts and free stuff to be had at local businesses for those with festival wristbands. Better get one. Festival starts September 24th at various venues in Victoria.

We have liftoff

September 4, 2009

The essential element in design is always beauty. This is true in nature, and in the architecture of land and sea. I think perfection (if there is such a thing) is achieved when there is nothing left to add, and nothing left to take away. If I discover something inspiring, or works well, or just looks good, then chances are you might be able to make use of my discovery. Let me know how it goes.

Thank you WordPress.
