Top notch. From Stockholm with love.

Saga Sigurdardottir
Usually you just gotta mention someone is Icelandic before creative people start applauding, rubbing the insides of their pockets whilst mumbling something about darkness and geysers. Rather refreshing then, to see Saga Sigurdardottir’s work which is pure London style. With a twist of darkness. And er… geysers.
Anyway: check out her Flickr stream.

Enough great work here to keep you occupied for an hour or two (get your asthma inhalator). Matthijs van Leeuwen.

Dutch team/agency/constellation/collective/whatever Our Polite Society are really great with using a lot of Times and black and white imagery that I myself have been very found of lately. There’s like “the netherlands” are written allover.
NoLegacy ♥ Spotify with 1-UP!
One more goodie before we close the shop this week, this time with illustration/design maestro Joakim Jansson a.k.a. 1-UP! “This list got out of hand pretty fast. Was suppose to be 10 songs but then it just added up, and I lost the concept. But it’s a nice mix of soul, pop, rock. Enjoyable on a friday with a cold beer in your hand.” All good then! Make sure to check the 1-UP portfolio and the site of Bleed - where he currently works, beautiful stuff all around. Thanks Joakim! Download and stream the playlist here.
