Renata Raksha
Renata Raksha is an amazing young LA-based fashion photographer whose work has been infused with a strong sense of narrative – secret getaways, furtive glances, mood defining shadows and light. One of the things I find to be most beautiful about her photos is the texture overlaid on top of strong composition. Having worked with and collaborated with a broad range of clients from VANS to local noise band HEALTH, I can definitely see more projects in the future in which she can showcase her talent.

Albert Reyes’ Never Dies the Dream at Mastodon Mesa TOMORROW!
Mastodon Mesa, an on-going project at the Pacific Design Center curated by Graham Kolbeins and Mya Stark, invites you to lose yourself in the twists and turns of Albert Reyes’ vast handbuilt maze. Comprised of re-purposed wood discarded on the streets of L.A., this stunning installation has been under construction for more than four years, hidden away from the world in Reyes’ back yard—until now. Albert Reyes is a Los Angeles-based artist whose hyper-realistic yet dreamlike drawings address themes both personal and cultural. His canvas has ranged from recycled hardcover book covers to public sidewalks, where his beer spit drawings drew national media attention along with original illustrations and prints by Reyes are also on display. Check out more images from his maze as well as a video shot by Graham when the maze was still in its original habitat.

Felix Weigand
Dutch designer Felix Weigand’s beautiful typography. I love the way his print work is documented. It’s difficult to translate the medium and temporality of paper and folds but he does it very well.

Would you buy this milk?
Clean, beautiful, and informative packaging design by Audree rethinks those nutritional figures we always take for granted. If everything we ate had this sort of packaging, would we still be eating it? Is ignorance bliss??

Spanish illustrator/designer Vicente García Morillo’s Behance portfolio is chock full of clean vectors and antiquated fades.
