The Lollipop Shoppe – Hamish Makgill

I like the idea of an “identity that didn’t have to only exist in two dimensions” –

“The Lollipop Shoppe is a modern furniture and accessories retailer… We created a bespoke stencil typeface (part inspired by the 20th century modular stencils created by Josef Albers and Le Corbusier, but with a contemporary elegance). This allows the identity to be physical – it can be cut, it can be built, it can be stamped.”

Minimiam

Originally seen via Yay! Everyday – a site which I love – image + words from here.

“The husband and wife food photographers, who work under the name Minimiam (meaning MINI YUM), spend their days transforming everyday foods into whimsical, storied landscapes.”

Whale tissue holder

“Dispense your facial tissue in style with this lovely handcrafted wooden whale from Etsy shop Gnome Sweeeet Gnome. Each whale is completely hand cut, hand sanded, hand painted, and hand constructed which requires several hours of loving attention per whale. The wood is purchased from a local lumber store who buys directly from sustainable forestry companies in the United States.”

Derek Richards (pantone calendar)

Derek Richards was commissioned to create a calendar for Pantone.

‘the main aim for me was to make this calendar relevant on a global scale. with the colour wheel being universally recognised, i used this and combined it with a mosaic made up of 1440 different images to create my main graphic. to answer a question i have been asked a few times, no ‘special software’ was used to produce this. the grid was build in Illustrator and i placed all 1440 images by hand in (as close to as possible) some sort of colour order.’

Seen via What Makes Us again! Definitely the blog to follow – stunning selection of inspiration.
