Console Font Is Just My Type


I’ve seen fonts that are playful, but the console alphabet may be the first ever that’s playable. Composed entirely of carefully arranged gaming hardware and awesomeness, it’s going to be my default just as soon as it’s downloadable.

Ugur Derinogullu


Coming from Russia, with love (in design), is designer and illustrator Ugur Derinogullu. Ugur’s series of organic looking illustrations are beautifully created. The strokes are balanced professionally and the compositions create for nothing short of intriguing forms. Don’t settle on the illustrations though, Ugur is also well versed in identity design and branding.

Threadless T-Shirt to Help the Gulf


Threadless is donating all proceeds from the sale of this oily “PeliCAN” t-shirt to the Gulf Restoration Network. It’s $10 and you can buy it, here.

“As of this writing, there is still no end to be seen to the Gulf oil spill. And as we all watch the gallons of oil spilling into the water and onto land, we can’t help but wonder what we can do to help. So a couple weeks ago, we decided to reach out to Threadless member Frederik Wepener of South Africa to work with our own Ross Zietz on a collaboration tee. The result is this design, peliCAN, which is intended to add a bit of hope to an otherwise devastating situation.

We’re donating all proceeds from the sale of this tee to the Gulf Restoration Network, a 15 year old environmental non-profit organization committed to uniting and empowering people to protect and restore the natural resources of the Gulf Region for future generations. They’re the only environmental organization working Gulf-wide, and since the first days of BP’s oil drilling disaster, they’ve provided independent monitoring and advocacy focused on holding BP accountable and ensuring an effective and transparent response to the crisis. Take action, stay informed, and donate to these efforts here.

We know ‘PeliCAN’ can only make a small dent in the aid that goes to the Gulf Coast area, but we also hope it will keep public focus on one of the biggest ecological disasters of our time, and inspire others to help too.”

Natsko Seki


Brought up in Tokyo and now resident in London, Natsko’s talent is for cheery cityscapes that whilst exist nowhere in real life they are brought to vivacity by her hand. Her love of antique and vintage culture gives her images a nostalgic feel but combined with her originality and use of mixed media her style is truly contemporary. Inspiration surrounds her in her favoured city of London. “It’s great to live in London. I saw a lady riding a Penny Farthing on one Sunday! she excitedly exclaims (Agency Rush)
