Most well known showcases of kinetic typography are based on western alphabet so I put together these motion type examples inspired by anime or japanese pop using kanji, hiragana or katakana. Read more

A singer riding a dead horse coming out of a torn book. A plane carrying letters across the universe, calling home to do some shopping (awesome navigation) back in old England. Parrots & horses living the rebel green under the fireworks. Another issue of random inspirational stuff.

During my day I find things that inspires me in one way or another. In fact, writing the last sentence brought to my mind the song One way or another by Blondie, also sung by “Violet” in Coyote Ugly. I often refrain from post them here because they don’t fall under an specific category. Design, typography, illustration, calligraphy. This is the first installment, we have toys, a russian site, a wedding site, typography, calligraphy, anime and more. I hope you enjoy it and find it inspirational.

I’m a big fan of Trenchmaker, a female illustrator also known as Anne Pätzke, and I read today that she had launched her new illustration site. Since it was so gorgeous I made a round up of other sites of some awesome female illustrators that I love and selected these nine sites for your inspiration and visual pleasure. The artwork featured is truly amazing and they have really different styles so I hope you will find it quite inspirational.

I want to showcase 7 sites that I really like. I like them because they are 1) clean, even those crowded with options are easy to navigate, 2) they are colorful, they dare to use colors and they use them good and for good, 3) they have a lot of small details carefully crafted, showing that the designer spent a lot of time taking care of this and that instead of throwing it quickly on the table.
