An Exploration in Craft - Featuring: Tanner Goods

by Ryan Bush

*If you have the means, enjoy this video with headphones* Tanner Goods is a small leather goods manufacturer located in Portland, Oregon. They work hard to manage multiple storefronts and offer a wide range of hand crafted leather accessories. They thrive on their attention to detail and appreciation for top quality products. In the future they plan to expand their product line to include non-leather goods such as eyewear and time pieces, while maintaining their strong roots in simplicity and utilitarian product design. You can purchase their products online at: www.tannergoods.com Or find them in person here: 1308 W. Burnside Portland, Ore. 97209 __________________________________________ This video serves as a documentation of craft that I have long been interested in as a Graphic Designer, and someone who appreciates hand made goods.

Change the tune

But occasionally the system fails and that’s what inspired me to build this poster. Want one?

Balkan tiposistem

by Marija Juza

Balkan is a new typeface system that consists of Latin and Cyrillic scripts. The use of Latin and Cyrillic typifies the former Yugoslavian countries, today Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro. The Balkan typeface system is a series of fonts that decodes Latin and Cyrillic; it demystifies, depoliticizes, and reconciles them for the sake of education, tolerance and, above all, communication. Though Balkan is a “font” in the usual sense, it is also capable of translating Croatian Latin into Serbian Cyrillic and vice versa. One could therefore think of it as educational software capable of reconciling discrete scripts.
