By which I mean: Juno, Nick & Norah, Away We Go, etc. In terms of dull ubiquity, it’s the (wannabe)indie-(wannabe)cool version of Papyrus. It’s the typographical equivalent of the MPDG.

Meet Evelien Lohbeck

Noteboek from Evelien Lohbeck on Vimeo. It’s rare that I come across a piece of art that I’m jealous I didn’t make, but this is definitely one of those moments. (via gizmodo) This might be a good moment to teaser the fact that the boy and I are deep in [...]

yes, I want this too, please

yes, I want this too, please

So, with this being a recession and all, I suppose imaginary shopping is the best way to go when it comes to luxury goods. In which case I’d shell out the big nonexistent bucks for one of these conjunctive lovelies: A deluxe carrying case for an ampersand, designed by Marc Johns.
