This Week in Gimme Bar - Jun 6, 2012

It’s time for the next installment of This Week in Gimme Bar, brought to you once again by Ryan. This week is filled with inspirational collections to turn your brain gears. Let us begin:

Starting this week is an awesome collection of some of the craziest, coolest architecture and interior decoration I’ve ever seen. lideborg has been hard at work building his Architecture/Interior. collection and it shows. I’ve always wanted to live in a Dr. Seuss house…

Prepare yourself for the collaboration between zinzi and lil_windmill. Shoe Porn is exactly as the name suggests. These are no ordinary shoes as you will surely see.

Third this week is hollyoxen’s color, a collection devoted to our visible spectrum.The focus isn’t any specific type or use of color, just that delicious eye-candy brought to us by light itself.

Being an amateur illustrator myself, I am biased towards this collection of Illustrations from jonnygotham. Although the artists differ these works all have one thing in common; they are scientifically proven to be awesome.[citation needed]

Finally, photography and typography combine in andrewjaustin’s Photypography collection. These photographs are enough to marvel at on their own, but some scholarly folks have introduced beautiful typography to the mix to create masterpieces like the one you see here:

Playing us out this week is a ‘Call Your Girlfriend’ Robyn/ Erato cover by Lennon & Maisy Stella.

We’ll start small with a collaborative collection, Typekit Sites we like. This collaboration is among aworkinglibrary, jsm, mason, benjaminwelch, timbrown, donlbe, and drinkerthinker. After that list, check out these cool examples of typekits.

People who read are cool, people who go to libraries are even cooler. mymarkup’s Modern Libraries collection celebrates these bastions of knowledge with some of the coolest libraries we’ve ever seen. If more libraries looked like this I’d never leave:

If you’re like me and have never been to Dublin then this collection is the perfect thing to get you acquainted. philipkennedy has catapulted us back in time with photographs of Dublin’s past. Take a walk through the streets of Dublin with these examples:

This collection is beyond your wildest dreams, the twist being that all of the images are taken on this very planet. Landscape is an incredible collection by tomasu that highlights some of the coolest places on earth.

User timmit completes this week with his not-of-this-world Outside Space collection. This collection is packed with all things space, from astronauts to rockets to galaxies and supernovas. You’re missing out if you pass this one up.

This Week in Gimme Bar - May 9, 2012

Welcome! I'm Ryan and I'm back again with This Week in Gimme Bar for May 8th, 2012. This week is a grouping of awesome collections including the fragile, the extreme, and everything in between.

First off is a collaboration by danmartens and andmangold titledBags. Viewer be warned, this collection of luggage paraphernalia may result in purchase.

Rolling in next is crossthebreeze's Ridin' bikes. This collection of videos and bike pictures is enough to make anyone rethink his or her position on pedaling. Take your bike to the extreme, or at least watch a video of the pros doing it with this cool collection.

Number three is a nice collection of the ordinary being pushed into the extraordinary. I'm speaking, of course, of yannell's ceramic collection of Plates, cups and things. These awesome eating and drinking utensils abandon the idea that they can't be art.

This is another collection that laughs in the face of the ordinary. davidreno's stairs collection makes us wish this is how we could get from floor to floor. Check these out:

Ending this week is brushett's Design collection. Because, who doesn't love some sweet, sweet design? This collection is perfect for the design connoisseur and what I can't put into words can be explained through these examples:

This Week in Gimme Bar - May 1, 2012

Hi guys! It's Ryan Simpson, Gimme Bar's new intern. It’s been a while since we've put one up, but This Week in Gimme Bar is back to show you all what your fellow Gimme Bar users are up to and hopefully give you a few new ideas for your own collections. So, here we go:

Starting us off is danielgray’s color coded collection Yellow. Not only has he collected a bunch of awesome images they are all, you guessed it, yellow. This opens up a world of new possibilities for collections. The only thing more impressive than the individual selections of this album is viewing the collection as a whole. This collection will only get more impressive with time as Daniel reveals the power of the primary color.

If you’re an album-cover-lover or just interested in discovering some new music, then heyjules’ COVER CANDY is the place for you.

Are you one of the people who watch the Super Bowl for the commercials? Well, you’re in luck! Thanks to niklausgerber and his Super Bowl 2012 collection you can bypass the football entirely. Now you can watch all of the glorious commercials in one place without having to wait through those boring football breaks in-between.

If you were wondering where you might find some apps for your mobile devices then look no further than introvert’s Smart Apps. This collection is a compilation of cool and interesting apps to check out. Keep ‘em coming, introvert.

For those of you that love cars, rev up with crossthebreeze’s collection, Wheels. This collection of automobiles, new and old, is a car fan’s dream. How far away is that car downloading technology?

Written in the numbing wake of finals week.

We’re being a bit male-centric this week, but in reality Blegrands ‘Men’ collection has something for ladies and gents. Handsome and badass guys doing awesome things. Wonder why none of them are programming. Hmm.

Lee’s Humeur d’Amérique is nostalgia / Americana central. More please.

Ambient Advertisement is a whimsical collection of offbeat ads courtesy of Niklausgerber. Haven’t made it through all of them yet but the ones we’ve seen are lots of fun.

Crafted in high spirits after watching the PBS Eames documentary.
