Art Flashback: Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder

Posted on February 29th, 2008 by by Nubby

This was one of the first pieces of art I made, circa late 2005. I didn’t know where to start (no prior experience making work for a gallery show!), so I began by combining my favorite things; the red cross, a bold fashion magazine image, and printouts of graphic swirls. Subsequently, as I started new [...]

A Retirement Party, Nemo Style

Posted on February 28th, 2008 by by Nubby

Today, Nemo Design threw a farewell bash for Judy, the first employee they ever hired. Of course, this wasn’t your typical ‘retirement party’….   Trevor presented Judy a handmade book composed of Nemo photos from throughout the years.

Thanks to a little help, I just revised my calendar so each page should print at the correct size for a CD case. Simply print each on a letter sized sheet of paper and trim! Click into the downloads section for the months up to March.

Posted on February 24th, 2008 by by Nubby

A confession: Hello, my name is Nubby and I’m a business card junkie. While some people dislike business cards and have never owned one (I know some folks who think they’re tacky and unnecessary), I think these compact pieces of thick paper deserve more credit than they often get! In the digital age where thank [...]

Link Love: 2.22.08

Posted on February 21st, 2008 by by Nubby

1. IKEA is giving us a sneak preview of their April offerings and there’s a definite modernized baroque feel to some of the pieces below. Exciting! 2. Lisa Bengtsson’s shoe-patterned wallpaper is best thing ever. Shoes in a poppy, graphic pattern on my walls would be a dream come true (via design sponge). 3. La [...]
