A weekly(ish) newsletter with designy things


🪴 How Many Plants

This plant website is beautiful (no pictures, only illustrations by Evie May Adams) and very handy atm, because I just ordered a bunch of new house plants. Fingers crossed I can keep them alive this time 🤞



How Many Plants - Indoor and House Plant Resource

How Many Plants is a growing plant care resource and community for ALL plant parents, seasoned enthusiasts and first-timers alike!


🎤 Jack Harlow Tiny Desk (home) Concert

“Tucked in a homey-looking space in Los Angeles surrounded by bookshelves and vintage furniture, Jack Harlow delivers a performance with the confidence of an old pro. His set, however, is the first time he's relied solely on live instrumentation to bring his songs to life.”

Played this on-repeat the whole week. 🤩


☕️ “Helvetica in the Streets” Diner Mug

Love this mug by Hoodzpah, a brand identity and type design studio out of Southern California. But, no international shipping... 😭


🎯 Focus Lab

Focus Lab is an established brand agency from Richmond Hill, GA. I really like their work and their current rebrand is lovely. 😍



The Future in Focus | Focus Lab®

Becoming one of the leading B2B brand agencies in the world is now our path ahead. “Brand First, Brand Forever,” shines light on our cause.


🍔 Rama’s Burgers T-shirt

Rama Works is a company based in Australia known for creating high-end (expensive!) mechanical keyboards. And they also sell this (awesome!) t-shirt.


🥰 Marvel Superhero Lettering

Reagan Ray collected a big chunk of Marvel Comics, cleanup the lettering, and put them on his website.

🐉 Group X Case Study

This brand isn’t built to explain, it’s built to inspire. It’s rooted in fantasy, made to spark imagination and reward curiosity.

It invites the viewer into a secret world — one where mythical creatures come to life, where rare and beautiful things appear unexpectedly around every corner, and where anyone can get carried away by the experience of art.

A nice case study by Smith Diction, a Philadelphia based design studio, for their "Group X"-branding.
