Sketchbook Preparation
A fascinating blog post about preparing to do a sketchbook and laying out the pages. This method won’t be for everyone, but it’s something I’d like to think about for my next travel sketchbook, as I rarely feel like my sketchbook pages have good composition: “I approach my sketchbooks like a graphic designer and the … Continue reading Sketchbook Preparation
Moleskine Monday: Tiled Drawing

But what I was very happy to see was that of the stock they had on hand, … Continue reading Just a Bad Batch?
Notebooks Organized Neatly
Another nice image containing notebooks from Things Organized Neatly, this one by Andy Barron. The one in the bottom right could be a DesignY notebook. In the middel, probably a Moleskine Cahier. I’m not sure about the other notebooks, but the other funny thing I noticed about this picture is that I have the same … Continue reading Notebooks Organized Neatly
Moleskine Monday: New Brand Look?
Moleskine’s got a new look, at least for their website and ads. I wonder if they’ll start to use this new concept on the notebooks themselves, or their packaging?
