Party Animal Beer Koozie

I recently teamed up with Los Angeles Swimmin to sell some limited edition beer koozies I designed. If you're ever out partying like an animal and find your hand is cold and your brew is warm, you should consider purchasing one. You should check out some of the other cool LA Swimmin gear while you're visiting their site. I've been eyeing this license plate holder for some time...

Photo shoot with friends

Morgan rented a strobe kit and picked up a roll of brown seamless the other weekend so we could take some photographs. We invited a few friends over to hang out, take pictures and drink beer. Of course, the cats made a few appearances as well.

Inspired by: Mutable Typography and Rolando G Alcantara

I stumbled across this essay by Rolando G Alcantara (originally found here), and was fascinated by just about everything it contained. The fonts are so smart and attractive, I want to date them.

Hiking Tuna Canyon in Malibu

Over winter break, Morgan and I went on one of the most beautiful hikes I've been on in the Santa Monica Mountains. The drive to the trailhead is long, but definitely worth it. You get an amazing view of Malibu and the Pacific Ocean, and once you pass through the saddle of the mountain, you see all of the valley. I highly recommend making the drive up here. More photos after the jump.

Glow Marrow "Bear Creek"

I was fortunate enough to be able to assist on Glow Marrow's shoot for their music video "Bear Creek" which premiered on MTV Hive today. Filmed by the very talented Morgan Cuppet. Check out these crazy-talented kids!

Inspired by: ANZAS Dance Studio by Tsutsumi and Associates

"Beijing based architects Tsutsumi and Associates have completed this dance studio in Beijing with mirrored walls covered in tiny graduated dots to create the illusion of a mist hanging in the air." Dezeen Magazine

Sugar Paper for goop

I recently took a few photos for Sugar Paper's new collaboration with goop. Always lovely results with these beautiful cards.

Color Reference Cards
“As I paint, I dab the colors on pieces of paper so that when it comes to printing a catalogue, I’ve got a color reference. But I’m starting to like them as works in their own right. They are accidental: There’s no attempt to make a composition, or to balance anything, or to make any painterly intrigue — they are made very directly, almost without looking.” Fiona Rae via artinfo.com

Inspired by: Micah Lexier + Christian Bok

Their text says it all. Amazing collaboration from Micah Lexier & Christian Bok.

A practical notepad

The holidays were busy, but I got some time off to relax and mess around. Here's a concept for a notepad I shot. I'm used to notepads having a practical heading like "Notes" or "To Do," but sometimes you need something more universal. This is a notepad that welcomes notes, lists or whatever it is you've got to write down.
