Julia Kostreva + Beast Pieces


One of my most favourite, super-inspiring blogs, Beast Pieces (the blog for the work of the hella-amazing, top notch Studio on Fire), posted these delicious invites by Julia Kostreva today. I love how there’s not only a colour degredé in the flowers, but there is a little halftone defining them. I can’t resist taking notes - this suite is pretty much perfect!

Coralie Bickford-Smith does it again


Oh my god, aren’t these book covers stunning? I’ve always loved Coralie Bickford-Smith’s clothbound series, both as a lovely book and a book of lovely words. It’s so wonderful to see her take the theme into a totally new direction with the F. Scott Fitzgerald series.

William Edmonds

I am digging the work of British designer and illustrator William Edmonds today, especially that lovely Try Hard Every Day banner. Something to live by, non?
