apartamento magazine




apartamento is an "everyday life interiors" design magazine out of italy, which i saw on reference library. it looks like they don't stock it in america (but they had a launch party at matter in new york), but hopefully that will change because i really love the aesthetic and layout.

airline logos
the Museum of Flight has a list and image library of airline logos from the past and present. it is so interesting how airlines marry national pride with flight, as they have to encourage tourism and inspire confidence that the plane won't end up in the middle of the ocean. the logos and brand identity usually capitalize on the strongest and optimistic aspects of the country's culture. interesting stuff.

IBM on the "Future"
Square America has photos from a slide show from 1975 about the future. I wish I could go back to this future.
