Prints, Signs & Typography by OMFG Co.



































Timelapse of the sign construction for the Spirit of 77 bar.




























While OMFG Co. is undoubtedly a cool name for a design group, I think managing to actually implement the acronym into the "Original Manufacturing Company" is pretty genius.  Based out of Portland, OMFG Co. is comprised of Jeremy Pelley, Mathew Foster, and Fritz Messenbrink.  They have a huge collection of awesome work, from bar flyers to leather tags to lit up wooden signs.  There's also some cool things available in their online shop too, so check that out.

This is just the beginning of a gorgeous set of poster prints by Canadian designer Stephan Di Donato.  His poster print project, Beyond Earth, is currently featured on Kickstarter where you and fellow supporters of visual arts can support this cool poster project to its completion, and also get some prints or other awesome stuff by doing so.

Music Goodness: Fourtet and Onra


French/Vietnamese artist Onra makes hip hop from the future. I'm sure of this. His entire discog isn't up on Spotify, but the spectrum of influences I heard while going through the what's available is impressive. Everything from lushed out Ed Bangerish electro to vietnamese oldies are used to soundscape his beats.

Onra - The One feat. T3 from Slum Village


There were tons of good vibes going off at this year's FYF Fest in LA and seeing Four Tet was nothing short of magic. This is one of my favorite remixes of his :
