This coming Thursday, the fine folks at House Industries are putting on an open house / opening reception for their new Eames Century Modern font collection at the Eames office in Santa Monica!

The latest addition to the Logo Rants & Raves section is the Chocolate chunk script logo by Evan Hecox. Is it a rant or rave? While that shouldn’t be too hard to figure out, you can check it out in the Logo Rants & Raves section by clicking here.

Designers are a dime a dozen*, everyone with a computer is a graphics designer (no mis-spell there). Saying a great designers are one in a million would be an understatement. Then there’s that whole other level which is so rare that the level doesn’t even exist, Herb Lubalin was the definition of that kind of level.

Sure yesterday, we put up some good examples of American design on cars from the 70′s but don’t think for a second that the German’s were sleeping at that time. The early 70′s meant business at the Porsche factory, their cars were works of art and to top them off, they painted them amazingly well for the races. Here’s a great set from the Porsche museum of the branding on their racecars. (check after the jump to see out highlights)

Seems like now the only thing that car companies make are remakes of older cool cars, cars with some Green story or just complete garbage. Enough of that though, here’s a cool set with some amazing examples of how cool the typography on old cars used to be (you can also see a condensed version after the jump)

Been cruising around on Flickr looking at different type examples lately. Came across a pretty good set by a fella named Michael Spitz today. Click here to check out his work.

Twenty years of shredding is a long time. Twenty years ago in snowboarding was a different world. To celebrate it’s 20th anniversary, the MMSC asked us to do a revise of their logo.

That’s right, we’re honored to be featured on LogoLounge.com for their “2009 Logo Trends” article, calling out an opart themed design we did for Adio Skateboards saying “Psychosis: Another new sort of fill is more psychedelic-crazy lines and patterns projected onto other shapes.”
Pretty exited about this one, the article is definitely worth a look if you’re interested in design.
