Between packing and proofing, we’ve been working through James Bond movies (available on Amazon Prime Instant Video for the rest of August!), so Michael Gillette’s type-heavy Bond cover redesigns were especially appealing this week. Take a look! Peruse the personal work of photographer Dennis Pedersen, marvel at Todrick Hall’s Beyonce-driven Cinderella remake, have a laugh at […]
Happy Friday! Before you check out, check out a floating dome of discarded umbrellas (the ultimate in un-brella projects), read the Future Boston Alliance’s case for a mayoral candidate who is a champion – not just a friend – of the arts, peruse Miguel Vallinas’ fashionably dressed animals, take a peek at Dimo Trifonov’s bittersweet soulmateless […]

TGIF! We haven’t had time to lollygag on the internet this week, but we have had our eye on […]
If you, like me, have hazy visions of ice cold beverages dancing before your eyes, then…well, TGIF. Before you hop off to your weekend, check out this Kickstarter for a big book of beautiful beards, remember 10 rules of the internet, enjoy Bon Appétit’s artfully arranged My Morning Routine series, consider a campaign for brevity […]
Exciting week, right? We’re off again soon, to visit friends in CT, but before we go: spend some time staring at Bela Borsodi’s incredibly-composed single photograph that looks like four, take a peek at 9tailors’ work for Northeastern rowing, read Stef Lewandowski’s exploration of little, big ideas, watch this kind of exhausting video compilation of […]
We’re packing our bags, making a pit stop at work, and heading off to Maine for the weekend. Fingers crossed for sunshine and summer swimming weather! (Follow us on instagram for up-to-the-minute shenanigans.) Before we hit the road, a few recommendations: catch Bri Emery’s thoughts on the new video features in instagram (we’re still checking it […]
