Day 262 - Packaging design: creative and beautiful bread packaging

Crazy Good Bread is a store in Santa Barbara that sells - yes! - crazy good bread.
Not only their bread is crazy good, so is the packaging that is designed by Studiofluid.

I love the bread packaging. It's is a little folding box. Not only the outside is nice. When you open it, the inside is also surprising. Look for yourself.

And how about the tote?

Day 198 - Minimal graphic poster design: Dutch windmill

As you probably know, I am working on a serie of 'one-liners'.

Minimal illustrations, consisting of one simple line, that will be printed as posters and post cards.

Today's illustration is inspired by the Netherlands. Foreigners know my country mostly as the county of tulips, wooden shoes and mills. The mill I draw today is a modern windmill.

Day 183 - Free font for graphic designers: Prime, a free techy font

As I told you befote, Fontfabric type foundry offers several free fonts on their website.

One of them is this techy font, designed by Max Pirsky:

"Prime is a simple typeface with a techy feel and a strict, geometric origin. I wanted to create something that offers great readability in various sizes yet still offers enough subtle differences to stand out. Basic and somewhat neutral, it can be used in a variety of ways from distinct titles to body text.  – Max Pirsky

Day 181 - Graphic design: minimal illustration for poster and postcard design
