The beard tamer

Love this campaign for the Panasonic beard trimmer by BBDO Berlin.

I've always been a fan of illustration and these are particularly good.

And the homage to circus posters is totally unexpected.

Little Golden Books

I remember when my daughty Ruby was little she used to have loads of Little Golden Books.

They always seemed a little old fashioned. Yet kind of timeless at the same time.

Today I stumbled on a great overview of the graphic styling of the books which was primarily set by Gustaf Tenggren.

It's a terrific read and also features many beautiful illustrations.

It's sure to have you nostalgic for your days at primary school.

The epitome of style

How beautiful is this packaging? I think it's absolutely stunning. These two are from a fabulous Flickr set of mid 20th century illustrative packaging, advertising and more. I recommend you click here to go take a look - you're sure to be inspired.
