From the makers of the popular Indie Rock Coloring Book, this poster book is a colorful celebration of indie rock music and art. Showcasing original artwork by thirty of today’s cutting-edge illustrators including Mike Perry, Deanne Cheuk, Jeremyville, Andy J. Miller and more, this poster collection is inspired by classic indie rock songs of each artist’s choosing. Featuring such favorite indie rock acts as the Bon Iver, Devendra Banhart, and Iron & Wine, this book is a must-have for indie art and music fans. Plus, it’s all for a good cause: royalties go to the host of admirable charities supported by Yellow Bird Project.
Printed in full color on high-quality cardstock, this collection can be enjoyed as a book or as individual pieces. The book includes 30 removable and ready-to-frame prints. The reverse side of each 11 x 14-inch print includes commentary regarding the illustrator’s artistic process and the rational behind what inspired them to create their piece.

loving this drawing from jessica hische - because as a new designer, I’m constantly struggling with “am I getting inspiration….or ripping this other designer off?”

As a promotional idea for Brand New, our blog focusing on opinions on corporate and brand identity, we opted for a product that involved our ever-growing readership in its content rather than just forcing a product upon them. One uniting practice among identity designers — whether they do work for Fortune 500 companies or their local laundromat — is that of sketching logo ideas, typically dozens of them before refining them in the computer, so we decided to inquire about the different reasons of why designers sketch logos. With more than 300 responses through Brand New and Twitter we selected the most compelling 30 and produced a modest 32-page sketchbook.
With simple typographic treatments the cover invites designers to sketch something brand new, and across the blank pages, the 30 quotes appear at the bottom of each page. Sturdy on the outside with its red-printed chipboard cover and soft on the inside with 100% Post-Consumer Recycled paper, the Brand New sketchbook performs in meeting rooms, coffee shops and, yes, even the local laundromat.

When the Fashion Editor for Hintmag came back from his latest photo-shoot in Paris, we received five images and a challenge to create a flash animation that reflected visions of madness and paranoia. Felix transformed the existing images and added illustrations and color for two directions. Once the story boards were approved, the animation was created in after effects and then imported into Flash to create the interaction.
