Art Explosions

June 20, 2013 By Shermaine Leave a Comment

I think that all males just have an inclination to blow things up. In fact, all of us tend to have a fascination for it. In the fast-fading memories of my youth, I remember causing a mini explosion in a playground and running away in glee, thinking that we were the coolest kids on the block. We were not.Jon Smith puts his fascination for explosions into something creative, something worthwhile. He . . .

I Drew a Ship

3D ship? Look again. This anamorphic illusion is actually a skewed drawing on three sheets of flat paper. Ramon Bruin, you have some serious skills. via This is Colossal . . .

iOS Makeover

June 14, 2013 By Shermaine 3 Comments

This seems to be the talk of the town. Apple has finally decided to redesign their iOS. A side-by-side photo comparison of iOS 6 and iOS 7 was recently released and I'm very pleased with its new makeover. I'm sure that many out there will agree. Finally. via Fast Company Design . . .

Fishy Business

April 10, 2013 By Shermaine Leave a Comment

Awesome packaging is awesome. Okay, that is probably one of the most redundant statements I have made. But really, packaging does make all the difference. Those of you who have bought fresh fish know those off-white papery packets that get slimy in your grocery bags and seem impossible to close once you tear off that barcoded sticker. Or the clingwrapped polystyrene tray which has the tendency to . . .

Face the Wall

April 9, 2013 By Shermaine Leave a Comment

We all love street art. Real art, and not random tags on the wall spray painted with any colour they could find in the store, or nicked from their brother's stash. The ones that you randomly spot while walking down the street and make you stop and stare. Russian street artist Nikita Nomerz creates 'The Living Wall', an ongoing series that brings life to dilapidated buildings by painting strange . . .

Simplicity

March 28, 2013 By Shermaine 1 Comment

I'm a bit of a social networking addict and in between this blog, facebook, twitter, pinterest and instagram...tumblr somehow always gets tossed aside for some reason. Then you come across finds like this, and you wonder why it got lost somewhere along the line. These are just a few pictures I came across on eight letter word's tumblr. I definitely do like what I see. . . .

Perfect Pairs

March 18, 2013 By Shermaine 2 Comments

Today marks our six year anniversary. The first boyfriend. The ex-best friend. The one who I asked not to tell anyone when we first started dating, just in case it didn't last longer than a week (everyone found out anyway). However, looks like it worked out just fine... This is just something that I was going to blog about a long time ago, but never got around to it. Let me just be sickly sweet . . .

The Vatican’s Sin

March 6, 2013 By Shermaine Leave a Comment

I think that every designer seems to have a personal vendetta against Comic Sans. The poor Pope of the Catholic Church did not know this when he released a digital photo album of former Pope Benedict XVI to commemorate his papacy as the Pope for the past eight years. The 62 page album was published on the Vatican website, featuring a collection of photos of Benedict XVI performing various . . .

Sneaky Logos

February 21, 2013 By Shermaine Leave a Comment

My little nerdy Thursday night game for you. Because you'd much rather do this than settle down on your couch with a glass of wine... See if you can spot all the hidden messages within these logos Okay, they weren't too brain teasing but some are a little clever - never knew about the FedEx one. But the part that entertained me most was the writer's commentary on the logos (see . . .
