GRAPHIC OF THE DAY: Girl-Time In Greece

Marianne Fürstin zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Sayn (no clue how to pronounce that) is an Austrian Princess and photographer who captured the European beau monde of the 20th century. Here, she captured her friends Isabelle Ratilar, Helen and Ludmila of Austria in June 1970 onboard of the M.Y. “Illyris” somewhere off the coast of Greece. It’s so nice to see something about...

Graphic of the Day: Dali's Surrealist Cookbook

Published in 1971 and officially entitled, Les Diners de Gala, this spectaculiar “cookbook” filled with elaborate food still lifes, original drawings and paintings by “The divine Salvador Domenech Philippe Hyacinthe DALI,” goes beyond description.

Today’s graphic comes from Nylon Magazine’s Digital Director, Faran Krentcil’s Tumblr. We’ve been a fan of her collages for quite some time now, plus we respect that Fashionista’s take their sample sales very seriously – no cuts, no buts, no coconuts at Balenciaga.

Graphic of the Day: Christmas Tree

We found this minimalist Christmas tree design to be quite unique and strong in stature. Maybe this was the tree that Charlie Brown envisioned when he championed his own. Today’s graphic is a salute to the simple design of the new Ikea tree.

Graphic of the Day: Love Me Strikes Again

If you’ve been in New York many years, you would definitely remember the famous DKNY billboard in the heart of Soho. Sure, you can argue it was just an advertisement, but for most of us, it was much bigger – a love letter to New York, pure and simple. In the realm of advertising, it was iconic. Originally designed by Peter Arnell, the mural stood erect for almost 20 years. Todays...

Graphic of the Day: Rookie

From the mind of Rookie (Tavi Gevinson’s new site), today’s graphic comes with a clever short story called “The Evolution of My Brother”. Here’s a teaser… We were alone most afternoons. On one of them, we searched my room for candles—the kind that smell like cinnamon, or mint, or are dressed up pretty with seashells, and are exchanged as Christmas...
