This Friday I'm joining some of my favorite designers to talk about what everyone fears the most...your favorite logo dying. I'm sharing a little behind-the-scenes look at our killed work for The George. It's a free event, all you have to do is RSVP here partiful.com/e/0lp8ysu3Zd...
Some killed logos and trinkets from a project about data. Collab with @alexanderson001.bsky.social on those fun posters.
Screw it, here's all of the google fonts that are actually good categorized by "vibe". Enjoy. www.figma.com/design/lWrI1...
Two years ago on this exact day we presented a brand that changed our studio forever. Shout out to Henry Modisett & Phi Hoang for trusting the vision on round one. I've seen very few people roll out a brand as fast as them. Thanks for giving us a shot. <3
Weird request here but where are we finding 80's script type like this these days? Dafont? Do I have to paint it by hand?
Working on something about butterflies. JK it's about AI. Collab with my boy Tully Ryan.
Uh oh they are giving me a microphone again! I'm so excited to talk about a new project that we've been working on for awhile now. The case study is already 20-mins long so I know no one is actually going to read it. No worries—I'll just walk you through it live!! Link to tickets in thread below.
Came into the office this weekend to build a new standing desk for Tully. Left with an admiration for how far we’ve come. Hyped on this every day.
Some days I think to myself, why am I doing my life on hard mode? Stressed out all the time. Pushing myself to be better every day. When instead I could just make a tee shirt that says “my bestie is messy” and make like $3M off of that.
Today is the day! We’re speaking about the wild west of collaborative brand design on the main stage at 2pm PT (5pm ET). If you’d like to live stream it for free you just need to sign up at the link below! We promise it will be fun. reg.config.figma.com/flow/figma/c...
I'm so so excited that these new cards got finished just in time for @figma's Config!! I wanted to have cards that showed the entire teams different personalities so we got a beveled, foiled letterpressed fronts & then blank backs so everyone could stamp on their own custom designs.
☁️ HEAD IN THE CLOUDS ☁️ ❤️ HEART ON MY SLEEVE ❤️ New studio poster for @buildingbok’s open studios this FRIDAY (5/2 from 5-9)!!!! Pop up to the fifth floor and we’re smack dab in the middle of the building. We’ll be selling all kinds of posters, pennants, and whatnots.

Oh my god look at theseeeeeeeeee stamps. This is just a piece of a special thing we’re making for config. Stay tuned!
✨ Meet our newest S&D designer Tully Ryan ✨ Tully actually joined us about a year ago as a contractor & then impressed us so much with his skill & amazing attitude that we knew he would be an incredible addition to our extremely tight-knit team. Also a great bowler.
New one for Gamma Logo by Summer McClure Thanks to Grant Lee & Melissae Elhajj for jamming with us on this one. Get your ideas out there at gamma.app
Question: What's your favorite quirky font foundry? Stuff like metis-foundry.com and bb-bureau.fr
In hindsight maybe eating oysters from a mason jar that had been sitting on the table for an undisclosed amount of time was a bad idea.
Prepping my slides for config. I think they are going to love this one.
Been on the hunt for this cutie for awhile. Happy to have it nicely framed so I can smile at it every day.
Animal Collective was really cooking with the I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls line in 2009
🌉 WE’RE SPEAKING AT CONFIG 🌁 So excited to announce that Smith & Diction is taking the stage to talk all about how Figma is the best tool for brand designers. We’ll be giving a look behind the curtain to show what our insanely collaborative process looks like.
