Chilling ceramic pieces by Israeli Artist Ronit Baranga, designed to flirt with the boundaries between desire and repulsion by planting areas images of seduction in places we least expect to find them.

Street Type Revolution

I love the colourful circus lettering used in Ben Eine’s massive REVOLUTION mural painted on the streets of Berlin.

Ben Flynn, a.k.a. EINE, shot to international fame when David Cameron presented one of his works to President Obama as a gift on his first official state visit, but is arguably more famous for ‘Alphabet Street’ - the shutters and murals he painted in his trademark colours and typography in Middlesex Street, London - described by The Times as “a street now internationally recognised as a living piece of art with direct links to The White House”

An edition of 300 screen prints, based on this design, are being released tomorrow (November 5th).

I’m excited to share these new type treatments I made for Holt & Bugbee Flooring co. this summer. To display their available wood options I made unique name plates for each one so that each wood has it’s own identity and character.
