Magenta

I am seriously digging the new Magenta by Neil Summerour. It’s got a lot of character and whimsy, but it’s not over the top. Would love to experiment with this font on a future version of Owltastic.

Since I woke up today so much has happened in the design world I can hardly keep up. To summarize:

One of my favorite designers ever, swiss-miss, announced the launch of an incredibly simple and beautiful task management system called TeuxDeux. I love the idea of a to do list that’s in the browser. Currently I use The Hit List, which is nice, but a little more complex than what I need. Now I’m just anxiously awaiting a TeuxDeux iPhone app.

Another one of my design heros, Jason Santa Maria, just announced his new design studio, Mighty. I love the simple mission statement:
… we want to make stuff that matters. Simple things. Honest things. Beautiful things. Every day, we want to make things that affect people in positive ways.
I’m really looking forward to seeing the work that comes out of this. Sidenote: the logo was done by the super talented Jessica Hische, and just reinforces my belief that she can do no wrong.

Today Ligature, Loop, & Stem announced the launch of another beautiful, limted edition ampersand print. So much want! I wish I could afford to buy one for SimpleBits and I for Christmas.

In news I’m insanely excited about, the brilliant Jos Buivenga announced the launch of Museo Slab. I’m already completely in love with the Museo family, and this new addition just makes me swoon a little harder. The best part of all? You can grab the 500 weight (also in italic) for free! I’m betting this will make a great alternative to Archer if you’re looking for something a little different.
Phew! What a morning. Let’s hope things quiet down for the afternoon so I can get some serious work done.

I loved this show as a kid. I figured I’d capture the title screens as I watch them and post them here for inspiration or something. I love the title screens!
Jina screen capped tons of title screens from Batman: The Animated Series. Definitely bookmarking this to return to later.

My name is Meagan Fisher. I love good design, well written markup, and owls. I'm the deputy designer at SimpleBits. When not helping Dan, I work with my own clients.
Testing out @argylewhale's theory that removing the pants entirely at dinner is way better than just unbuttoning them. So far, so good.
