TYPOGRAPHY FRIDAY: Oh Dier Living

Wow {!} I can't believe it is Friday already. Doesn't it seem like the older you get the 
more time speeds up? Anyway, Happy Typography Friday! Today I am featuring the 
Etsy Shop of Oh Dier Living. Because, I have been doting on their wooden signage for 
months now, and its about time I share the love. 

I really like the idea of words on a wall. 
And Oh Dier Living has gotten really creative by adding some punchy (sometimes 
snarky) phrases to their collection and I really love it! They even have a custom listing 
where you can have your name or favorite curse word ;) created to hang. FUN!

Happy Friday Everyone! xox

TYPOGRAPHY FRIDAY: Lee Jung

Hey its Friday! Annnnddd its also Typography Friday here. Today's feature is South 
Korean Artist, Lee Jung. Her gorgeous text based light series caught my eye on This is 
Colossal. Have you ever seen 'Say Anything' - that old school John Cusack movie where 
he holds the boom box over his head outside the girls window? In the middle of the night! 
And you just melt... 
Well, these letters remind me of that moment. Its like there has been some kind of 
massive build up, you are all alone and then you turn around and there are those glowing 
letters staring you in the face. Reassuring you, privately, 'til  the end of time'.
I just love these. 

TYPOGRAPHY FRIDAY: Cement and Love

Because gray Cement needs love too...
Imagine the person who wrote this. They could have written anything... 
They could have just written, 'I love you'. But clearly that was not enough. 
Have you ever felt like you just had to write EXACTLY what you were 
thinking? Because anything less would be a lie. I just love this. 


TYPOGRAPHY FRIDAY: Type City

Well, If this isn't awesome, I am not sure what is. Artist Hong Seon Jang uses pieces 
of movable type from a printing press to create a detailed and elaborate city scape, 
aptly entitled, Type City. 


TYPOGRAPHY FRIDAY

I love this neon sign. My source does not reference where it came from, but I want it. 
And that little diamond at the bottom, subtle and perfecto. 
xox

Want it.

TYPOGRAPHY FRIDAY: Tattoo Typography

I have always wanted a tattoo with something fiercely moving written in beautify script. 
But a tattoo is forever and I knew there weren't any words that could be that fierce forever, 
so I never got one. But I think these tattoos are beautiful and I love their design and 
placement. What about you? Do you have a tattoo? What would yours say?

TYPOGRAPHY Friday: Gem Goode

Sending along some more type love for your Friday. I love the length these design 
have from Gem Goode at Deviant Art. Creating Type Art that is easy to read is a 
difficult task but I think the balance between flourishes and fancy typography here balance 
well and my eye flows across the page. I love that the entire design in both uses only one 
color. And once again, Great Quotes!

Dana Tanamachi, Chalkboard Designs {wowey}

Dana Tanamachi is a Dreamboat. Check out these chalk designs. Wouldn't it be so 
fantastic to have a giant chalkboard at your wedding with that bottom right design. 
{actually any design would work wouldn't it} If you head to her website she has 
some time-lapse video that shows her process. It feels like you are watching a secret. 
Its pretty cool. 

Wednesday

Embroidered Typography

I am a sucker for amazing typography. And Maricor Maricar has pretty much 
blown me away with these jaw dropping embroidered typographic wonders. 
Look at the detail and precision. And the donut! Oh I love the donut! :) I have 
never heard the quote "Be Excellent to Each Other" But I am very sure that 
I full heartedly agree. 


Tuesday

Helvetica has all the fun...

Oh Puns AND Typography!
My Tuesday just got a kick in the right direction. 


Nike, Just Does it





Nike does Just Do It Right don't they? Isn't that amazing wood 
typography up there? 

There is just something about typography that 
I adore and when it sis done right and used creatively I kind of drool 
over it. {It might have been those hours spent forced to identify each 
font's individual curl in college} But what ever the cause, BRAVO 
designers on board at Nike. I dig. 

Wednesday

An Important Reminder

I have been feeling a little out of sorts lately. 

Do you ever get that way? 
It kind of feels like
I have forgotten my plan? 
Not my plan for dinner or my career path. 
No. No. 
I know exactly where I want my career to go 
and what I want to eat {currently wishing 
for a giant peach and big ole mug of coffee}... 
but I find myself forgetting
who I was supposed to be along the way. 

Sometimes I feel like this world has us so 
wrapped up in an idea of success and the financial 
obstacles to surmount to get us there 
that us 20 somethings {and heck even the 30-100 
somethings} are so bogged down with "going out 
there and getting em' " That we lose the spirit of the 
uniqueness each of us have and hardly know. 
And we project so far into the future 
we have absolutely no time to sit a fascinate over 
the fabulousness of whats going on right here 
in front of our noses and inside of our heads. 

So this little post is a reminder to
 myself and to all of you if you are listening, 

you 
are damn cool.
and I mean DAMN COOL. 

Tap into it... 
and dig a little deeper EVERYDAY. 

Thursday
