Design Poach #18: Heights

What: A cover of Wuthering Heights, which I've never read, but want to for the number of film adaptations there are, including one by our man of the moment, Mr Manipulator himself, Rivette.
Stolen from: An article in the Independent about the art of book covers, of course. Found via this recent 3:AM link dump.

Design Poach #17: Ice Cream Paint Job

First, get over me being "late." This blog is not about timeliness. Next: Love how low-tech this "video" is... and with roughly 400,000 views. Why "Design Poach"? Cuz my next 4-wheeler will defo have baby blue walls. I'm talkin Nuggets colorways. Cuz I ride hard like all them tatt'd up boyz. Take it to Kobe, make him do work; make him earn his Finals. Or, you know, clean him up and take it to Bron yourselves. Either way, you know the entire locker room of the Nuggets loves this song. --RWK

Design Poach #12: Business cards

Apparently this is how LEGO does their business cards. I don't think I'd want it that way, actually. Though, to be fair, I've never been that obsessed with stuff like that; just curious. I mean, I could, understandably, within reason, print up some cards, I guess, if I wanted to, but, you know, like, that would be like, um, a life choice? --RWK [via the guardian]

Design Poach #11: Alice Tully Hall

What: The newly renovated Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center across the park from me. I first saw it at magic hour, it was yet more beautiful. Unfortunately, I did not have a camera.
