BRICK a BRACK




b3 designers, british interior architectural consultants constructed a one off cardboard cafe,
during the london design festival. the team converted their east london studio into a temporary bar,restaurant and retail design experience. imitating the look of bricks the installation was put
together using numerous hot glue guns. for the opening night guests were served cocktails
in cardboard cups and encouraged to wear cardboard clothing. awesome? recycled interior goods? yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

LAW SCHOOL... yawn

At this moment I am staring at the powerpoint presentation with the ongoing thoughts:
" Is that really a picture of a pencil with squiggle marks running down the page? What the fuck are we in Kindergarden here?! Where are the pictures of blood hungry eagles? of blind justice and scales?! of lawsuits and mafia lords, and confiscated drugs and guns! This isnt the law school I dreamed of this is some whack ass pussy whipped shit right here"


A view from the back of the class - where the best students sit of course.

FUTURA TYPE BOOK

Testing testing 1,2,3

Okay soooooo I told y'all Texan cowboys and gals about a type project I've working on in school last quarter. And yes it's true, I did get lazy over these past summer months but nevertheless here I am putting in full efforts- and best feets forward - all to try to share with you the magic that is the Futura typeface and the joy of Typography II.

THE MISSION: To research and write about a typeface and using that exclusive type face design a sequential multi page layout to produce an informational booklet aimed to educate an incoming Art Center student.

Lets see.. does this pdf link seem to be working?
