Lately we’ve really been digging the positive, pared-back work of Liana Jegers. She’s an artist and illustrator from Chicago, and also makes up one half of The Smudge, a rad monthly print newspaper we wrote about not too long ago. She also makes books, zines, risograph prints and silk scarfs from her wonderful collections of drawings which she sells in her online store.

Stumbling across her sparse pencil drawings on paper are a breath of fresh air in what can sometimes feel like a sea of loud and bold work. Perusing...

We’ve been infatuated with Italian illustrator Olimpia Zagnoli’s work for quite some time now, and we recently had a little lusty flare-up on account of her new solo show How To Eat Spaghetti Like A Lady. If you’re not familiar with Olimpia’s work, we’ll give you a swift intro. She lives and works in Milan, and you’ll see her work splashed across the pages of major newspapers like The New Yorker and The Guardian, book covers she’s designed for Penguin and Taschen and many-a clever collaboration with the who's who of global culture. So yah, she’s a pretty...

We’ve got a list titled ‘Things We’ve Got A Thing For’, and geometry and colour are pretty high up there. It may come as no surprise that Camilla Løw’s work is no exception to this list.

Combining geometric shapes with organic forms and materials, her sculptures are like a magic meeting of art and design. They’ve been shown around the globe in both institutions and public arenas, and she’s also skipped around the world a bit with them, living in Glasgow and San Francisco before...

Robbie Simon is a man who wears many a creative hat. From graphic design to art and illustration, wooden sculptures and cut outs to book design and print projects, Robbie keeps his minimal, restrained yet fun visual vernacular present and in check. A lover of Calder, Matisse and Miro, his minimal, abstract, refined graphics recently caught our eye and we had to learn more.

Growing up in South California, Robbie was initially drawn to graphic design after being gifted a pirated copy of Photoshop in high school. He moved to San Francisco soon after to...

Marleigh Culver is a designer by day and an artist by night. Like some kind of sneaky art superhero, she spends her days working in Need Supply’s design department, but when she gets back home to her lounge room studio she switches to her role as an emerging, exciting abstract artist. Based out of Richmond, Virginia, Marleigh has been a fan of art for as long as she can remember and despite her work being void of any recognisably literal forms, making it is a truly emotional experience for her.

Working across paint and digital forms,...
