Creating Food #PantonePairings with @dschwen

Minneapolis-based illustrator and art director David Schwen (@dschwen) has long used Instagram as a creative outlet, documenting unique typography, literally interpreting common turns of phrase, and adding notification badges to everyday objects.

But lately, Schwen has embarked on a new theme: through the hashtag #pantonepairings, he has recreated paired Pantone color swatches with commonly paired food items.

“As a designer, you’re constantly picking color chips and pairing them up with one another. A while back I had an idea of making Pantone chips out of real household objects—sponges, cardboard, and the like. But while I was finishing up a poster design, I had taped two Pantone chips together to see how they looked next to one another. Instantly I thought of how people pair food together, and that was that. Pantone pairings.”

Check out @dschwen to see the rest of David’s #pantonepairings and follow along to see what he dreams up next!

Rirakkuma Bear and Friends Emergency Kits - March 11th marks the second anniversary of the enormously devastating 2011 Tohoku Earthquake that hit Japan. Since, Japan, as well as many others countries, have been very proactive in preparing for future natural disaster of these kinds. However, preparing children for occurrences of this magnitude is not obvious and can easily incite fear in the lil guys. 

To help promote awareness about natural disasters in a less frightening way, the nice people at San-X have released a collection of very cute Emergency Backpacks filled with vitally important supplies. Hello Kitty, Rilakkuma, Korilakkuma, Tarepanda and Tsugino Kerori carry with them a couple of bottles of water, a bit of food, a blanket and a few extra things to get your kid through a couple of hard days with a cuddly friend.

Prepare your kids with the Plush Emergency Kit available via this link.

My Woosa packaging received a Silver Student Addy award. Woohoo x2!

My Step Right Up website design won a Gold Student Addy. Woohoo!

Couldn’t have done it without Rex Runyeon’s brilliant mind coming up with the concept of the whole show or Sarah Abell’s fancy parallax and form skills.

Go Team!

Oh Oh Oh, I’ve Got a Rocket

Perhaps these modern, whimsical rockets ingeniously crafted by Brooklyn-based designer Pat Kim won’t fly you to the moon, nor zip you past the stars, but they’ll surely pep up any space.

Inspired by the past and present, these dec­o­ra­tive obje…
