The Record Cabinet

Here’s the Ron Burgundy of record cabinets, by Atocha Designs. It’ll set you back $12,500 but damn this would be a sweet addition to your classy living room.

One word: MAVERICK

We’re pushing the political persuasion button a lot today but with the election less than a month away, there’s never a bad time to spoof the Republican strategy.

You Work For Them

Design educators, You Work For Them unveiled a gorgeous new website today. Make this your one-stop shop for cool fonts, books, shirts and more. I really wish storefronts like 2K by Gingham would adopt this ultra-clean e-commerce template. I’d be buying way more shirts!

Lifehacker spreads Holiday Matinee love

Lifehacker  is a must-read, daily blog that helps you get things done smarter and more efficiently. They recently posted an exclusive interview on how I started Holiday Matinee and worked with great bands such as Death Cab For Cutie, Bright Eyes and The Album Leaf. Thanks Kelly!

Design Concepts

Here’s an interesting concept that might one day find a home in the marketplace. It’s a mobile touch-screen that recognizes words or objects and provides mini wikipedia-like information. It’s a clean design and something I would totally use but would rather see this built into my iPhone as an app rather than carrying around another device. Props for a great idea though!  [via design you trust]

Fall fashion

We had a rainstorm in San Diego this weekend.  That happens maybe twice a year.  It was pretty awesome and so are these flannels from Ludwig. Stay warm my friends. [via High Snobiety]

Paper dogs

Cute folding paper dogs from Hong Kong designer Dicky Pin. [via Spray Graphic]

Bands named after animals

Great poster design by 33rpm.

World’s best kept auto secret

Want an easy way to know which side of the car your gas tank is on? The answer is staring you in the face. Look at the fuel gauge on your dash. You will see a small icon of a gas pump. If the handle on the gas pump extends to the left, then your tank is on the left side. If the gas pump is on the right, well you know how this ends. Enjoy.
