The Art of Making, The Carpenter
Honestly this amazed me with the editing down to the overall completed piece. I tend to appreciate carpentry even more knowing how much skill it actually requires to be great at doing it.
Do Not Let the computer limit your design ability
Nowadays since everything is done fast and digitally we forget that we can use our hands. When you make something using your hands it adds a touch that a computer could not do. Just think of how fascinated and more appreciated things are that have been handmade.
I recently started learning calligraphy as a way to use my hands creatively other then sketching. Take some time this week to step away from your computer and spend time designing with something other then your phone and laptop. The thought of designing or even crafting with your hands will make you feel happy and you’ll be more engaged.
Child of the 90s | Internet Explorer
When I first watched this commercial I was blown away. If you grew up in the 90’s you can relate easily to what they talked about in this commercial. The story they told made it even more relate-able. Because I for one grew up using Internet explorer and before that it was netscape navigator. But I’ll stick with using firefox

Rare Eames House Walkthrough
I’m still amazed by the Eames house every time I see videos,pictures of it. From the driveway up to the house it is a visual treat. It is almost as if it makes you want to keep going and to look inside. When it shows Eames Demetrios entering It shows I believe the kitchen at 2:00 in and I love the simple layout of not having a huge table there. One major thing I noticed after watching this is that it seems as if everything has a particular purpose and is carefully placed throughout the house.
I wonder how it looks now compared to this video being shot via 1997.
The Joys of Letterpress Printing
Watching this made me appreciate letterpress even more. Learning letterpress is something that I definitely am going to do. She has a great passion for letterpress and she even smiles when she says that she loves what she does.
