Daily Dishonesty: A Typography Series of Little White Lies

What better way to make harmless little lies more convincing, than with a beautiful typography series? Brought to us by NYC-based artist Lauren Hom, Daily Dishonesty makes a strong case for things such as her empty promise of, “I’ll Just Have A Salad,” or her false claim that, “Bacon is a Food Group.”

Considering the brilliant design, colors, and use of typography — viewers may be open to stretching the truth a bit. Now, how do we get bacon on that new food pyramid?

Prints of Daily Dishonesty are available for sale at Society6.

The Cartography of Kitchenware

If you don’t know a colander from a cookie sheet, or what a box grater is for… Then first, step away from the kitchen. Second, grab a copy of The Cartography of Kitchenware by Pop Chart Lab, and hang it on your wall, pronto.

The 24″ x 36″ poster is beautifully printed on 100lb archival recycled stock, and is “the world’s most thorough mapping of kitchenware” which includes over 200 tools, machines, and manipulators. Now, get back in there and put that spatula and meat tenderizer to good use.

Coffee Filter Art by Ben Blake

Artist Ben Blake believes that “coffee inspires creativity.” So he uses that theory to celebrate coffee and coffee culture — one filter at a time. Featured on his site, Draw Coffee, Blake uses his mastery of typography and mad doodling skills, to create clever illustrations of almost anything coffee-related.

Whether a coffee event, a favorite café, or the stuff itself — one lucky filter is adorned with original art, and becomes an homage to our morning Joe. K-cups can’t do that.
