giant chickens

I couldn’t resist another ‘giant’ post :) I don’t know which I’d like more, the sketch of this design or the actual product.

I can’t remember where I first came across this chicken mentioned, but you can find it and more great designs at Hayon Studio.

It’s a little hard to see, but I took this picture of giant rooster last year – if I was more daring I would have run into this persons backyard quickly for a closer picture…

Big Baby in Paris, via Preik

I knew the picture John took of the giant doll/puppet in the street reminded me of something – I went through my bookmarks earlier & found this link I’ve been saving.

Apparently the baby lived on top of a petrol station for years before taking up residence in a Parisian design studio. Want :)

Whimsy

Lost and Found preview. (via swissmiss)

This is so beautiful I had to watch it twice – the animation is lovely and combined with the soundtrack it has a very whimsical feel.

It really made me smile, I look forward to seeing the whole film.

Funny weekend this… I’ve spent most of it working on some stressful projects – but I’ve accomplished a lot, which is great. A couple of really nice moments :) – seeing a picture John took yesterday of a giant doll in the street (I love this! If I been there to take my own photo I would hang it on the wall), winding a skein of 100% silk Hand Maiden yarn by hand, drooling over fonts with fantastic discretionary ligatures and stylistic alternatives – and one with some crazy contextual swash options :)

and hanging new pictures on the wall… so yeah, not a bad weekend at all.
