I get 2 nice packages send by Nick Sambrato, the head behind Mama's sauce print shop. One contains a bunch of buisness cards and invitation, the other a set of nice silkscreen posters... It is great to see these nice printing techniques and papers in hand... and to shoot them for you ;)

Design Attractor is the blog of Jan Skácelík. And it is an amazing selection of home interior... all that I like : white, wood and sometimes vivid colors... I could have simply present all the pictures from it... but I do a selection of... 60 images...

Jan is also designer and have a nice shop of posters...

I just received an email of a friend to tell me about this sad news : Arnaud Mercier, who was the designer behind the Elixir Studio and co-creator of the Area17 agency, passed away on september 26th in Marseille...

He was one of the first to design amazing interactive web site using flash (it was flash 3 at this time) and shockwave... it was back in 1999... He also did photography who had a big influence on my work, the way he use colors and unusual composition... I found in my archives a lot of images of his work...

My thoughts are with his family and friends...
