Dan Walls

Dan Walls

  Friday is Dan Walls last day at Target. He’s moving on to a new shop in town called Rêve to start up their Minneapolis creative department. He’s one of the mega talented folks behind the target summer campaign, and I’ll hate to see him go. Since he doesn’t have a site up, I asked...

Brian Brooks

My buddy Kirsten Swank told me the good news that Brian Brooks just made the move from rainy stupid Portland to beautiful Minneapolis. From what I hear, he’s going to be a lead designer at Space 150. Should be a good fit for both Space and Brian. Welcome sir, we’re glad to have you.  ...

Foil on Leather Classics by Jessica Hische

  Art Director Jo Obarowski and Typographer Jessica Hische kicked out these classic cover designs for Barnes and Noble. I really dig the spines and the Dracula cover. I’m thinking that I might have to make a trip to B&N soon. (via)

Bark At Art

Bark At Art

My buddy April is hosting a poster show about pets. Sounds fun right? The best part is that 100% of door donations, and 80% of poster sales will benefit the Pet Project. She’s still looking for a few more artists to round out the show. If you’re interested, send her an email to barkatart@gmail.com   Anyhow, here’s...
Mats Ottdal

Mats Ottdal

I’ve been curious who redesigned the Mello Yello packaging and after doing some digging in my cargo followers this morning I’ve found him. Mats has a huge online archive of his work and it’s all very diverse and beautiful. It might take you 15 minutes to dig through, but it’s worth the time. He has...
