Little Box Of Ideas

  Whenever I have started an online personal project, after the initial research on the viability of my idea, I have always begun with the logo. We all know that a planned, well informed and structured approach to starting a business begins with a unique identity that sets you apart in this brand conscious society

A while back I was working on a logo project for an outdoor cooking company in Texas, USA. I did a roundup of beautiful gourmet logos at that time. Fast forward a couple of months and this time around I was working on a delicious logo for a sausage company in UK. To say I

The quirks romancing a wine logo are many. Each vineyard has a story to tell. It is this dialogue with their roots and history that awakens the connoisseur in all of us. The beautiful tales seeping out of their oak barrels tease our imagination as do the promise of fresh and fruity flavors. Good wine

The first time I heard the word line art was in 1998 at a web development studio where Nick and I used to spend our college breaks, working on projects. I was instantly intrigued and fascinated by it. Line art is a style of graphics that consists of distinct straight or curved lines placed against

Every few months I do a post rounding up the latest and freshest typography wallpapers on the scene that catch my eye. I have 47 new ones [or at least I think they are new cause I haven't seen them before] today and am really digging the "Why So Serious?", "Retro Machine" and "Lost" Wallpapers.

We’ve searched high and low for the most powerful, technically distinguished and absolutely amazing vector landscapes available anywhere online. You’ll be astounded by the level of artistic expertise on show. “But what’s a vector landscape?!”, I hear you cry. Good question! Well … it’s a work of art made up of lines and blocks of

Namaste! If you are a Lost fan with an insatiable appetite for hashed and rehased theories of the flight Oceanic 815, the island and all its mysteries, the intriguing Dharma Initiative, the absolutely perfect characterizations of television’s most addictive characters like Locke and Benjamin Linus, the black smoke monster, the parallel universes, heaven and hell

Today I have rounded up 48 brilliantly creative and demented vector characters for your inspiration. When I say demented, I mean really mad and quite insane actually. I love the freedom vectors provide, the ease with which one can conjure up creatures and characters that are as weird as they are implausible.  I love how

Lately I have been obsessing about character development a lot. Part of the reason is the Project 365 Vector Characters that I have undertaken. Part of the reason is my deep seated need to always give life to the whimsy, quirky, fantastically random and imaginary characters that reside inside my head. Character development is a

If you are here, you must have already checked out Part I of the post, did you? This is Part II of some quality, handpicked photo manipulation inspiration that I lost a couple of months ago and found it by chance in a text file. The artists who created these pieces are truly amazing, their

A couple of months ago, I had sat and compiled a photo manipulation roundup over a good many hours. The compilation was lost and one thing led to another and I never got around to doing that post. It was a happy fate of chance when I came across the links I had saved at

I have been coming across more and more "grown up" vectors that have a conscience, that tell a compelling story. The artistic expression in these vectors is amazing, the detailing in some and the impact of the artist’s thought process is awe-inspiring. A lot of them touch base with what is wrong with the society,

Jad Limcaco of  Design Informer might have very well just started a design movement. He wrote an article about designing something everyday for Smashing Magazine that spurred a great many people to create Posterous and Tumblr blog accounts for their brand new Project 365, a project where you do something consistent every single day of

I wish you all a very Happy New Year. Hope you have a very fruitful one. We are starting off the new year with some good old logo inspiration. My latest logo project has been food related and I thought that I’ll share some classy gourmet logos that I came across in the course of

Have you ever had a dream so surreal and so bizarre that it left you feeling very vulnerable and unreal? Were you all alone or trapped in a nightmarish place with no way out? Did you see visions of things that only psychotic minds think of? If you have, then you are just like everyone
