Our studio-mate David Pearson spent a large chunk of last year working on a frankly fantastic series of covers for Cormac McCarthy's books, which have recently been published. They're a distinctly visceral set of typographic designs, reflecting the novels' frequently...

We recently picked up this rather lovely sign at The Old Cinema in Chiswick, but we're not really sure where it's originally from. We thought maybe it used to be on a train? Any ideas? It's about 600mm long, and...

We're just listening to the new Gorillaz Plastic Beach album in the studio (it's being previewed on the Guardian's site, and comes out on 8 March). As expected, the album's a delicious fusion of styles and artists, including collaborations with...

Oop, bit late notice on this, but the latest Ephemera Society Bazaar is nearly upon us - the perfect place for picking up piles of printed goodness (stuff like this). It's this Sunday, 28 February, at Park Inn, 92 Southampton...

We just jumped across to the rather wonderful custom-lettering blog Lettercult from ffffound, and heck, it's hugely delicious, with a well curated mix of found lettering, logos, titles, and other random typography related stuff. Here's a couple of their recent...

Buying fonts is generally a fairly functional affair: you do your browsing, click through the various registration and payment forms, get confused by a Verified by Visa screen that looks dodgy as you like, and then download a zip file....

Talking of getting good stuff in the post, the fine folk at Stack Magazines recently put us on their subscription list, and we got our first package from them a few days ago. Stack is a subscription service which sends...

Some lovely stuff in the post this morning, including this rather tasty sample pack from image & type library Veer, which contains a set of six dry transfer sheets (you know, like the Letraset stuff, from the olden times). The...

We've just finished putting the finishing touches on this brochure for The Historic Royal Palaces. They're the independent charity that looks after some of the most incredible places in London: The Tower of London, Hampton Court Palace, Banqueting House, Kensington...

Recently in the studio we seem to have had a run of printed projects involving large areas of black. So it was a case of Really Great Timing that Chris Pollard from Dayfold Print dropped by to show us their...

We Made This is pretty much an old-school affair, focusing on printed stuff rather than digital stuff. But we dip our toe into the pixelworld now and again; so we figured it might be time to let you know that...

So this looks rather delicious: the latest conference at the ever brilliant St Bride Library is Design for Music / Music and Design. It features a stellar line-up of speakers including Gerard Saint (Big Active), Karsten Schmidt (aka toxi), Fred...

We made our way to East Dulwich today to visit one of our favourite shops in London (in fact, it's one of our favourite shops just about anywhere). North Cross Vintage (on the corner of Fellbrigg Road, just off North...

Well, crikey, Happy New Year to one and all! Hope you had a glorious festive season. We had one of those hectic run-ups to Christmas (three parts work, one part social), which is why things have been a bit quiet...

Well, this is just a whole bag of good. The Guardian have launched an app for the iPhone, and it feels like a real step towards those personalised newspapers futurologists have always dreamed about. The app costs £2.39 to buy,...
