Paul Octavious has sparked a revolution. When the Chicago-based photographer began including correlating Pantone cards in his everyday instagram shots, he tagged them #thepantoneproject – and it’s catching.

We were a little slow on the uptake, but a big thank you is in order to Elaine for including our Boston via Hopkinton poster in her recent Boston-themed Etsy treasury (alongside the lovely Anna of Dear Friend, I might add). Thanks, Elaine! Posters are available in our shop (and on Etsy), and by popular […]
How gorgeous is this photo from North Essex-based letterpress shop Typoretum? But really, everything they do is lovely. After Jack sent me the gilded shot above, I perused their flickr stream and found ombre posters, wood block illustrations, Day of the Dead plates constructed from bits of type, and eventually, on the Typoretum blog, a […]
When I first spotted an image from Millee Tibbs Virgin Land series, I immediately thought of my sister; if I am guilty of having a soft spot for horses, she must have nothing rigid left about her, and Halloween is a popular time around the barn for the youngsters she teaches. I headed to Tibbs’ […]
While we were checking out First Friday at the ICA last week, Jack and I caught a closer look at Jeffrey Gibson’s ongoing exhibit (Love Song), which we had admittedly skimmed through on our last visit. I had enjoyed Gibson’s colorful, geometric paintings on drum heads before, but had missed the trapezoidal stretched-hide works on the […]

Yuni Kim Lang’s oversized Black Knots series is comprised of similarly intriguing […]
Boston’s still dreary today; June holds more promise. While we look toward warmer forecasts, though, this signage for the National Trust caught our eye on Tumblr.
Even though the rain is slowing, we’re looking forward to a laid back Sunday – after a smidgen of artistic festivity. Rotganzen’s corpulent, collapsing disco balls were kicking around the internet for quite some time before I came across their match, in the form of Andrea Marini’s glittering Flows. For more background on Rotganzen’s Quelle Fete melting […]
Most days, Jack and I inhabit very different parts of the internet. Occasionally, we’re drawn to the same things independently: this project from Tokyo-based studio YOY was one of those things.
If the pollen lodged in my eyes during this morning’s commute is any indication, spring bloom is still in full force in Boston despite the sudden summery temps. (Such is New England.) Hatsuki Miyahara’s colorful compositions caught my eye this weekend, reminding me of the incredible array of blossoms visible in our neighborhood this time […]
