Fiorella Bazan, A good friend of mine from Miami just launched her blog. Its only been up for maybe a little over a week now, but so far I have really been digging the content! expect more good things to come! check it

The past few days have been real fun, I went to Bainbridge Island and worked a couple of days with my good friend/work partner Landon Acohido on some website projects and made substantial progress, so that felt real good. After that I then took the ferry over to Seattle and met up with Harrison and we went strait to Portland where were going to be for the next few days working on a feature on Studio Nemo. Nemo has been super cool, they hooked us up with a great work space so we’ve been conducting interviews and shooting tons, I’m really looking forward to the finished project! We’ve got some real great content, and we’re only on day 2!!

I’ve seen this site quite a while ago via Superfamous, but I just went through all of my bookmarks today that I haven’t checked in a while and this really jumped out at me today. I think the site is designed and built very well, also the attributing content is point on. A quote from the bio “Dutch/Californian artist Bas Jan Ader was last seen in 1975 when he took off in what would have been the smallest sailboat ever to cross the Atlantic. He left behind a small oeuvre, often using gravity as a medium, which more than 30 years after his disappearance at sea is more influential than ever before.” He seemed to have quite an interesting life if you go through and read his Biography, and his work is pretty unique as well. have a look.

I picked up the first issue of the The Last Magazine today and I’m pretty convinced that this is the best magazine I’ve seen all year. Im a huge fan of minimalism when it comes to design and editorial and how simplicity can completely put emphasis on content and let it speak for itself. simplicity and minimalism are nothing new in editorial, but I thought they executed this style beautifully and unique with the magazines large format, huge photos that bleed off the pages, subtle use of bold type, and the newsprint they use to make it with really makes this stand apart from the rest of the selection. I dont suggest trying to look through it at the magazine stand (the photos don’t show it but the magazine is like 4 times as big as a normal magazine!) I can sum it up as an instant classic! have a look…
