The Red Line Tour of Innovation in Boston. First stop: Ether Dome | I haven’t yet been to The New Typography at MoMA, but it is up there on my list of things to see. Interview with the exhibition’s curator | I have been to Slash: Paper Under the Knife at the Museum of Arts and Design in NY, and I can’t rave enough about it. I took home the exhibition catalogue — I love it | Israel now has a Design Museum | The Changing Landscape of Education in EGD, from Arrows & Icons Magazine | Hate mail | Patterned prefabricated concrete (link no longer available) | Where Ben Franklin Meets Supermodels. I love the Woodward and for some time have wanted to show you its modern/colonial cabinet of curiosities mashup style, but each time I go I am unfortunately too busy drinking delicious cocktails to be bothered with taking photos | Neon Bone Yard in Las Vegas | Gold leaf glass gilding by sign painter John Downer, a lost art | Beautiful,subtle wayfinding for Surry Hills Library | The Third & The Seventh; or take a quick look at the stills | The Pursuit of Happiness by Maira Kalman, the interview | And finally, Happy Valentine's Day, to you.
