Swiss Miss is such an ace site, such varied content. Film of a Brooklyn Beta conference event, just love the way it is put together, great direction, great editing, great music, really captures a sense of something you really wish you were at! Credits Brooklyn Beta and Captain and the Fox.

A terribly lazy post, seen via What Makes Us in my usual daily/weekly sweep of favourite blog links…
Really lovely work from Love, (based in Manchester) for Umbro HQ, signage + generally making the work place a space to ‘inspire and motivate’. Images via Love.
A little extra is that Love has a blog as well…

How to describe this…half the fun for me was to work out what this was when I got the link from a designer at work, cheers Cam. (Shamefully took probably a bit too long!)…check it out on Flickr…(print and poster work for software-asli.com)

Been a follower of SwissMiss for a while although never have sat through a complete viewing of an episode of her Creative Mornings talks that she organises. This talk by Michael Bierut (Pentagram) is fantastic, just very straight-forward, nothing pretentious, and honest. (Extra things I have from this talk is that Sagmeister is pronounced with a hard G rather than ‘Sage-meister as I first thought’!).

Fuel RCA seems a really useful resource from what I have seen so far. First time I have checked out their site although I have been following them on twitter (@FuelRCA) for a while. Their latest twitter post on ‘how to write a business plan‘ made me sit up and see for myself – their header from their site describes them better than I could…

Saw these a while back on Design*Sponge… really great ‘pillows’ (or cushions!) designed by Hand Over Fist (based in Queens). You can buy them via their Etsy shop (for $50). Photo via Design*Sponge, shot by Pippa Drummond.
