    I'm a Chicago designer who graduated from Columbia College May 2010. I believe inspiration comes from unexpected places, and therefore it is necessary to look beyond the familiar to bring new ideas to light. This Tumblr allows me to record my discoveries in hopes of providing some nugget of truth or inspiration to the next fellow.

    I’m ringing in fall with a little bit of left-over graphic weirdness. I really love ginko tree leaves.
