Logos that make you sigh


I came across these logos whilst looking for some new inspiration. Siah design has some beautiful examples and chooses a logo per month, which, of course, means that all the searching has been done for you. Take a look at his site and his blogs.

Evolution Store an amazing shop in New York


If you ever get chance to go in this wonderful shop, do so! Just to go in and look round is an experience even if you don't fancy buying a purse made out of a frog or insects in test tubes. The shop also rents props out to film companies etc
