Pinterest Picks


I love Pinterest; It's a great way to collate a digital mood board of inspirations and interests that can be simply updated, edited and shared. Many times I have been lacking ideas and turned to Pinterest for much needed inspiration, plus it can link you back to the original source, which is generally very useful. 

I am a big fan of typography, hand rendered type and anything remotely retro, which is shown in my Pinterest picks below. If you want to see any of these pins and other similar images follow my "Inspiration" board here.


Possibly one of my favourite pins to date, this simple design showcases type and photography together in a lovely nostalgic way. Although cheesy, I think the message within is also useful to remember.


Similar to the design above, this image touches on the "Hipster Branding" fashion with beautifully constructed type and simple vector shapes.


This image has a Nike feel about it to me, I like the offset effect used to suggest this has been screen printed or similar.


I so wish I was talented at hand rendered type like this image above. I like seeing the pens and paper scattered around the side of the page which shows that great design is not always reliant on digital methods.


I just like the simplicity of this hand painted sign and the angle of the shot.
