This project caught my eye over on Adam&Co.‘s portfolio site. Plus- my husband’s name is Adam so I’m a bit biased.
Starstruck?
I asked a question on Twitter last week. “What one celebrity would make you feel the most starstruck?” Here’s a visualization of the answers I received.
And my answer? Well, that would have to be Chris Martin. And I don’t even want to hear it from the haters. I’ve been to seven Coldplay concerts and I loved them before all the tools did.
Who would make YOU feel starstruck?
Mads Burcharth
Stinking talented. Check out Mads Burcharth’s work here. Samples below. I can’t get enough of type lately.
And it was calm.
I almost wrote, “And it was clam.” Fried clams sound really good right now. Anyways- I hardly took ANY pictures while I was in Illinois. I could kick myself! I was able to spend time with lots of family and the best of friends so just know that it was wonderful. Check back tomorrow for some amazing work from a very talented designer.
Monday Link Love
- The photo above is a photography by Cheryl Maeder. The soft, blurry photograph remind me of a Mark Rothko painting. (Found via Black Eiffel)
- Delight by Design just featured a gorgeous bar cart that I’ve been staring at for awhile now.
- Oh Joy! featured work by Dale Frank awhile ago and something about it intrigued me. So bold.
- Also loved Brett Amory‘s work on My Love For You Is a Stampede of Horses.
- Seth’s post on Pushing Back on Mediocre Professors TOTALLY resonated with me. I wanted to give Seth Godin a big high five.
Enjoy your Monday! Photos from my Chicago trip will be up tomorrow! About 2 photos from my Chicago trip will be up tomorrow because I hardly took any! What is my problem?!?
Chicago, Chicago that toddlin’ town
The photo above is of Tip Top Tap, serving only cocktails and a superb view of the skyline. Found here.

Grey Gardens
“Here, I’m mother’s little daughter. In New York, I see myself as Edith.”- Little Edie

I watched Grey Gardens on Halloween this year (the original 1975 documentary). My mom has always been a fan of this mother/daughter duo for quite some time but I never watched it with her. The three photos and video above are the original Big and Little Edie. The documentary is about an old mother and her middle-aged daughter, the aunt and cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, live their eccentric lives in a filthy, decaying mansion in East Hampton.
While watching it, I was so amazed at how outward beauty fades and the mind goes as time progresses. Hopefully soon I can watch the most recent film. The two photos and video below are of Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lange portraying them in the 2009 movie Grey Gardens.

Have you seen the new Grey Gardens? What were your thoughts? (PS How beautiful was Little Edie back in the day?!)
