All Good Things from enormous champion
I have read about enormouschampion and seen their work in Print and Uppercase magazines. Never thought that I would be able to own one of their original artwork!enormouschampion is a design studio based in Brooklyn, New York. More about enormouschampion, please visit their blog. The print I got is a limited edition, letterpress print. It [...]
Lovely ceramic set from Starbucks
I’ve been noticing this set of ceramics for a long, long time. I can’t keep my eyes of it whenever I go to Starbucks. I knew it will finally go on sale someday, so I didn’t buy it, until yesterday. It wasn’t a crazy sale, only 2-dollar difference, but I’m so happy that I can [...]
Random Art
I was going to use my recently designed pattern to print some cards, but I accidentally set the paper orientation in the wrong direction, ending up with the design cropped. Oh well, I thought, at least I could make it into a smaller, square card. But it just doesn’t look that nice anymore… And then, [...]
I ❤ Patterns
I decided to create my own patterns after reading an article about textile design in the current issue of Uppercase magazine. One of my favourite is Cloud 9 Fabrics. Their collections of fabrics are so wonderful! This pattern is my first trial of making a pattern in Illustrator. It turned out to be not too [...]
My Work in Uppercase
I received my Uppercase magazine this morning in mail, and I found that my work has been selected!! Few months ago, Uppercase magazine had a call-for-submissions for “candy wrapper redesign.” I thought it could be fun, so I actually bought a box of chocolate Pocky and scan them. Yes, SCAN. Literally. And gave the [...]
Good for Eyes
Urban legend says that carrots help with night vision. Though not completely true. Lack of Vitamin A can cause poor vision. Have you ever seen a bunny wearing glasses? Nope. My next move was putting it down – to my basket. You could say that I bought this simply because of the design or the [...]
I Love Freebies~
這…不是在打廣告, 只是在雜誌社工作的好處之一就是商家常送來的 freebies! 對我這種廉價實習生來說, 這算是小小補償吧。 Happy Planet 是 Vancouver 當地的飲料業者, 專門製造所謂的有機果汁。最近他們要推出的 “Shots”, 有點像是台灣 7-11 裡常看到的補給飲品, 也是同樣地小巧可愛。四種不同口味: Immunity, Detox, Glow, & Energy + 我都喝過了, 雖不怎麼好喝也不知有沒有效果, 倒是很愛他們的包裝設計, 還有用鐵盒將四瓶裝在一起賣的質感。聽說一瓶賣 $2.99, 會不會賣我真有點好奇。 ＊ 一定要參觀他們的網站, 裡面有我最愛的小兔子出現: http://www.happyplanetshots.com/ (Turn on your speakers.)
