I'd noticed this video posted on a handful of design blogs in the last few weeks, and never hit play until a friend posted it on her Facebook page. I mean, who has time to watch all the videos we're exposed to these days? If you're interested in innovative design and technology, though, this short...
As a youngster, growing up in Sydney, I remember eagerly awaiting the next episode of Astro Boy, ever ready to watch my favorite flying robot dish out mechanical beat-downs to unruly giants and other ill-mannered trouble-makers. Of course, at the time, I had no idea it was originally called Mighty Atom, I'd never heard of...
I had the pleasure of getting to know Benjamin Escobar, better known as Benjie, while we both worked at LA-based streetwear mega-brand, The Hundreds (very briefly, for my part, and much more long-term on Benjie's part). Indeed, he was the Senior Designer there for six years. During that time, he was responsible for producing more...

Here's a fascinating and inspiring video I spotted over on Jeff Hamada's (interviewed) hugely popular art website Booooooom. The irony of visiting a Vancouver-based website to find out about a project going on in a neighborhood I drive past on a daily basis wasn't wasted on me, and this is exactly why Booooooom is so...
This new video from LA's own MOCAtv, by Shinsuke Tatsukawa, combines two loves of mine; looking at street art, and visiting Japan. If you've never had the opportunity to visit Japan, this video gives you a great snapshot of life in the unique island nation, and also reveals just how incredible of a street art...

Jasper Wong is an accomplished Hawaii-based artist, illustrator, and curator, well known for his eye-catching work for clients including Nike, Hurley, Nooka, Ace Hotel, DC Shoes, and many more. His fine art is incredibly appealing too, and has landed him press features in publications such as Acclaim, Complex, VICE, and Juxtapoz. But above and beyond...
Our Architecture for Dogs partnership with the incredibly talented designer Kenya Hara and the Nippon Design Center is set to open at the lovely Long Beach Museum of Art next week. The VIP opening is on 6/20, and the exhibition opens to the general public the following day, on Friday 6/21. It's the first gallery...
Hannah Stouffer is an incredibly talented artist and illustrator, based in San Francisco (even though she's hardly ever there). I'm a huge fan of her personal artwork, and her creative output for other brands probably puts most illustrators to shame too. I was lucky enough to get to know her a couple of years back,...
