water wheel wine

When I think of the water wheel, I think rustic, so that's where I was hoping to go with the redesign. I also wanted to have an established feel to it. Here's what I have so far. More to come.

wine hunt

wow....


bad,bad,bad:

are kids drinking wine now?

organic wine:

I'm not sure what's going on with this one:three possibilities for redesign?

Another tagline option

getting better... this tagline is driving me crazy...

working on a new tagline...

I drew the text out, scanned it in, and manipulated it. I decided to lean the letters toward the left, i.e. the west. Not sure if it works though...

pop-up calendar so far

This is definitely my favorite project in typography so far:
The pop-up letters are the 13 most used in the English language (need to mention that somewhere in the calendar):
1.E
2.A
3.R
4.I
5.O
6.T
7.N
8.S
9.L
10.C
11.U
12.D
13.P

Each month focuses on one PMS color and one sans-serif typeface. Each typeface has a short description and a fun pop culture fact about that font. For example, the text for the title of the film The Royal Tenenbaums is set in Futura. For someone who doesn't know a lot about typography, this would be an interesting way to learn about different typefaces with references they would recognize.

pop!

I was looking up pop up books the other day because I was thinking about incorporating that idea into my calendar, and I found some pretty interesting and creative stuff. This is pretty amazing... they're pop up books of lamps that actually light up when you open them.

pretty amazing stuff... I can only imagine how much time and precision it took to make these.
