Occupy! Cover Design by Kelli Anderson
This beautify designed book cover belongs to an equally interesting book. I haven’t read it, so I’ll not say much about it. But I did want to bring to your attention the incredible detail that went in to this design, particularly the subtle imagery of protesters cleverly masked inside of the typography. It’s edgy and smart, and Kelli Anderson deserves a pat on the back.
For more information on the book, be sure to check out the Verso website. It’s also currently on sale for $8 at Amazon.
2012, The Year Of Tangerine Tango
Pantone has released its always interesting color of year. This year it’s a feisty shade of orange (or red?), and they’ve dubbed it “Tangerine Tango.” The Pantone code is 17-1463, but since I live in the web world, I’ve recreated it with this hex code: #e1523d. I also took the liberty of putting together some split-complements (see graphic above). Those hexes are #348ec0 (blue), and #80cb37 (green).
So get trendy, people. Ditch your boring old Bauhaus red, and convert to Tangerine Tango.

Astonish Me
“Every day we lose more of the natural world. And each time we find something new, we realize there’s so much more out there that we don’t know.”
The World Wildlife Fun is certainly no stranger to making great viral videos. But this one deserves a bit of extra credit. Astonish Me is basically a hollywood quality short film showcasing a great message in a pretty unique way. At any rate, I thought I should contribute to its exposure. So here it is.
