Jay Floyd: Nubby Collages

Posted on October 18th, 2009 by by Nubby

My friend Jay at Nemo HQ made these two awesome Nubby spreads and I thought I’d share. I love seeing how other designers interpret my work. Thanks to Jay’s mad design skills and hard partying ways, there is never a dull moment at the office.

The Week in Pictures: 10.16.09

Posted on October 16th, 2009 by by Nubby

Fall is in the air. When two shirts, a sweater, jacket, two pairs of socks, boots and a scarf just isn’t enough, you know it’s getting cold. In reality, it probably is close to average for this time of year, but considering that it reached 106 degrees in Portland this summer, the adjustment is hard! [...]

Alexander McQueen is a genius. Keeping it short and sweet this week! • The value of taking time off: Every seven years, Stefan Sagmeister closes his design studio and takes a year-long sabbatical (via kottke). • You vs. The Cubicle is one of the best pieces Steve Pavlina has ever written. If you’re spending your [...]

Ask Nubby #23: Sharing Work Online

Posted on October 14th, 2009 by by Nubby

As creatives, this is something that we all ponder. It is scary putting your work on a platform that can be instantly viewed and accessed by the entire world. It takes a level of trust and confidence in yourself and your work as well because not everyone is going to like or to appreciate what [...]

The Typofiles #36: MAC Fashion Week Poster

Posted on October 13th, 2009 by by Nubby

Last month in New York, I came across these MAC Makeup posters that were pasted up around the city for Fashion Week. MAC has always been pretty hip and the use of this ampersand is no exception. You can view all of The Typofiles on Flickr here.

I Fell In Love With A Llama.

Posted on October 11th, 2009 by by Nubby

The One and Only Nigel. This is probably the strangest post that I have ever made but please bear with me. I have fallen in love with a llama. Yes, I said a llama. I have never been an ‘animal person.’ In my 28 years, I have never had a pet of any kind (not [...]

What I Wore: 10.11.09

Posted on October 11th, 2009 by by Nubby

I would tell you why I was laughing, but the story is highly inappropriate. HIGHLY. Thanks, Auntie Nubs! My brother took me on an insane estate sale voyage for most of yesterday. I’ve never seen such treasures! Six hours later, the back of his car was full as we headed back home. One of the [...]

The Week in Pictures: 10.9.09

Posted on October 9th, 2009 by by Nubby

Photo by Paul Dahlquist This is the first Week in Pictures that I have gotten around to doing in October. Wait, did I just say October? Where has this year gone?!! Over the last two weeks, I have spent time at two agencies, done two rush jobs, accepted two new clients and though it feels [...]

• Find out what fashion designers of the 1930s predicted that people would be wearing in 2000. Interestingly enough, Fashion Magazine points out that the predictions were very much on target. • Molly Crabapple, a world class illustrator and the founder of Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School just received a multi-page write-up in the New York [...]

The Typofiles #35

Posted on October 7th, 2009 by by Nubby

This is my favorite door in New York. I took these photos last month; a total typographical goldmine! You can view all of The Typofiles on Flickr here. Note: Posting has slowed down a bit here over the last two weeks due to a busy freelancing schedule. I’ve been spending the week working on projects [...]
