New Trends in Logo Design
Glad I fell upon these! Love the Michael Spitz logo!
I've been looking at a lot of different ways to do logos recently, and colours are something that really intrigue me! This is a lovely set of 'many colour' logos.

Why we should create a new brand with just two colours when we can use more? Green, blue, yellow and magenta together? Why not? The colour combination sometimes has no rules. We present a selection of amazing new brands with one thing in common: "the use of colours". Today we’re going to feature 30 of the best submissions from Creattica and Logopond.

Typetester
Wow! What an awesome tool for website developers!
Has all the basic 'web standard' fonts, and also, it looks at the fonts your have installed on your computer so you can check out what they look like in comparison! Also very easy to change size, colour, leading, kerning, aligning etc!
I do love a good tool!

Jill Greenberg Photography
Wow - I'm in love! Particularly with this lovely set of photos from Jill Greenberg. Something about the colours, the underwater-ness, and the sense of calm within the photos! Love it.

Personal Work: Sit on this
So I've been working on this stool as part of an exhibition - with quite a cool idea! A friend, George Whiting, has made a whole bunch of stools, and he asked a whole bunch of people to design them. The exhibition opening is tonight, but here is the piece I submitted. It is an exploration of decorative pattern and natural materials.
The Gallery is open Monday 8th Feb, to Friday 12th Feb, 10am to 5.20pm at 131 Willis St.

Studio Love: Studio Round
Studio Round, in Melbourne, Australia, has some stunning work! Lots of branding, packaging, typographic and graphic design.
I was lucky enough to go to their studio while I was in Melbourne for AGIdeas, 2008, where they showed a group of like minded designers through their processes, space, and the gorgeous work.

Custom Type
Wow! I just found lettercult through ffffound. I am so in love! Really, really makes me want to get drawing - not even for a custom logo or anything, just to be drawing type, something I have always loved doing! Note to self - draw more! Also, along the same note - draw different things! I tend to start drawing and continue drawing the same thing for awhile...
Anyway, these are beautiful, inspiring hand-drawn typographic pieces!
