The Foer Family

 I am listening to a very interesting audio book

 Moonwalking with Einstein: 

The Art and Science of Remembering Everything

There are some really good ideas about 

memorizing in this book!

Turns out Joshua Foer is the younger brother 

of another author I like... Jonathan Safran Foer

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

Everything Is Illuminated

And I love all three book cover designs!

Window Display

I love it when window displays make you stop and take notice!

Tiffany's ice cream display was lovely!

Louis Vuitton had an interesting egg/bird display.

I read that at Louis Vuitton's flagship store in London, 

a new ostrich egg would hatch each day

to reveal a different shoe or accessory.

Sorry my photos aren't so good, but if you do a search 

for these displays you will fine more photos.

Smart Pebbles

 These colorful pebbles provide a comfortable resting spot 

for your phone, laptop, iPad, or other device.

 I'd like to have a few to play with.

Made from non-slip, heat-resistant silicon

You can find them at DesignBoom

Michael Schwab

Ever since college 

I have been Michael Schwab's biggest fan.

The crew poster was my introduction 

to this great graphic designer.

I love his design style.
