It isn’t that hard boy to like you or love you
I would follow you down down down,
Cause you’re unbelievable
If you’re going crazy just grab me and take me
I would follow you down down down, anywhere anywhere
Things I’m liking now: patterns, noise filters, gradient maps, quotation marks, and Lana del Rey.
The saddest part
of a broken heart
Isn’t the ending
so much as the start.
Here is some more free-form design. I think it’s helping me get moving. I have been so wrapped up in “is this the right typeface,” “does this even look good,” and “does this convey the meaning,” that I’ve become over-critical with my work. I’ll be damned if I lose my passion for design in my search for the perfect and error-free portfolio. Perfection is overrated. If this particular design is about anything, it’s about throwing rules out the window.
“This definitive guide to classic cocktails breaks down 68 drinks into their constituent parts. Follow the lines to see where spirits, mixers, and garnishes intersect to form delightful concoctions. This massive movie poster-sized print contains over 40 types of alcohol (from distilled spirits to bitters), mixers from raspberry syrup to egg white, and garnishes from the classic olive to a salted rim. This obsessively detailed chart also includes the ratios for each drink, as well as the proper serving glass, making it as functional as it is beautiful. Over a year in the making, this is Pop Chart Lab’s most elaborate chart ever.”

I’ve been in a creative slump, maybe because I’m less than three months away from graduating. Today I realized that I have gotten in an absolute rut and I have lost the joy of “freeform” creating. I think I’ll try to start creating more things aimlessly, in hopes that my purposeful designs will benefit.
