Supremebeing have a new competition and this time the task is to take your favorite album and rework the cover design. I have had no time to do much on this but chucked down some quick ideas on a few of my favorite albums. I?m really looking forward to seeing what others come up with and their take on album art.

Graham Smith, the guy who brought you Unevolved Brands is a logo designer from Sussex who has come up with a new fun game called FontFuddle.

After attempting the first one I realised that my typography jargon was a little out of whack when faced with the need to know the technical term for the end of the stoke on a lower case ?e?.

A quick Google search later and I found this great resource which has won itself a place within the select ?elite? of my bookmarks. Typography Deconstructed is a guide to the anatomy of type with simple graphical reference to each part of character, It?s also a nice looking site.

I would recommend everyone to take a look and give it a bookmark for later reference.

Stop the Violence is a series conceived by photographer Francois Robert who has collaborated with Rick Valicenti from 3st. Francois came up with a alphabet made solely out of bones for the photography exhibition "Stop the violence" and Rick stepped in to design the book and also producing a 60 sec promo video.

There are a couple more shots of the collaboration here at 3st.

These have been floating around the internet?s design blogs for a while but still worth a share if you have not yet had the pleasure. The idea is simple, sarcastic and I love them.

They are letterpress cards on a wonderful stock which you can purchase here.

My favorite so far, written from the perspective of a Mentos sweet states that Diet Coke is overreacting.

There is also a website dedicated to the Dear Blank series here.
