hi! i like your blog and i like seeing all the things that influence you, but i'd also like to see your work. what do you do set design for? film? print? fashion? just curious.
I love graphic posters. You know who does some pretty great ones mostly for musicians is cassandra jenkins. http://www.cassandrajenkins.com/graphicdesign/01.html
Here is a quote from Massimos Canon on paper sizes. You gottah love the guy for his strong beliefs. He's funny. "The international Standard paper sizes, called the A series, is based on a golden rectangle, the divine proportion. It is extremely handsome and practical as well. It is adopted by many countries around the world and is based on the German DIN metric Standards. The United States uses a basic letter size (8 1/2 x 11”) of ugly proportions, and results in complete chaos with an endless amount of paper sizes. It is a by-product of the culture of free enterprise, competition and waste. Just another example of the misinterpretations of freedom."

aaah, Lester Beall is one of the first graphic designers I fell in love with! Everything he did for the REA is amazing!
