Uppercase Journal

ART & DESIGN

I’ve been a big fan of Uppercase magazine for some time now and impatiently wait for the next issue to be released. The latest issue was released last week and after spending some time with it, I’ve been able to pull out some of my favorite spreads. Page layout is among some of my favorite aspects of graphic design and each issue has tons of inspiration to pull from. Enjoy.

Line Klein's Interiors

ROOMS

Danish photographer Line Klein (view online portfolio) started out as a portrait and food photographer. Today she spends the majority of there time snapping photos of interior spaces and still life. Line’s work has been popping up in my life here and there, but I never knew she had a blog until just recently. Go explore her little space of the internet.

COLLABORATIONS

Hi guys! I’m excited to announce a new design collaboration happening here every Wednesday with Bre of MOXEE. The two of us have really “hit it off” in the terms of designer-to-designer relationships, and we felt like it would be fun to share some design insights with you. We could go on and on about what typefaces we drool over or what design websites keep us glued for hours, but that would only bore you over time. Instead, every Wednesday we are going to share 2 Recreate It posts (one here on my blog and one over on her blog) that will hopefully help you translate those pretty magazines spreads you see into something more tangible. Hey! You may even get some new blog post layout ideas from it. Hope you enjoy this new feature as much as the both of us. Cheers!

IN THEIR HOME

La Dans La is a magical blog full of childhood whimsy and scenes from every day happenings. Written by a stylist and mama, La Dans La is daily showcase of all things stylish. The rooms are organized and put together with simplistic details. Even this family’s wardrobe sends jealously running through my bones.

Trending Graphics // It's all in the circle!

ART & DESIGN

Today’s Trend // Circle Logos
Is it just me or is there an enormous amount of circular logos out there right now. I’m also noticing that a lot of these circle logos are black & white and bunch of them have a stamped texture. I like this trend, but the more and more I see it, the less excited I get.

I am a big fan of symmetry and typically circular logos show some form of symmetry in their design. Most are typographic in nature as well, which is always a winner in my books.

Are you a liking the circle craze?
