The Kleeve mixtape shirt is perfect for that certain DJ in your life.
Kleeve is a young brand from designer and compulsive doodler Hans Krebs. As a brand, Kleeve is new, having just launched in September of this year. The witty designs are inspired by (among other things) contemporary indie comics, the great outdoors, and commercial packaging of the 50s, 60s, and 70s. Shirts sell for around $22 and if you order in the next day or two, he might even be able to get your order to you by Christmas. Kleeve shirts are only available though Kleeve.com. Check out the work below the cut!
I’ve been getting a few emails from readers wanting gift ideas that are cool and inexpensive and great for designers of all ages. So here’s one of my faves. The original Color Forms set was introduced as a toy in the 1950’s by University Games to teach children about using shapes to create art. The set comes with hundred of vinyl shapes and 2 boards to arrange them on. Everything is completely reusable so, best of all, you can make endless combination’s of shapes and colors. At just a hair over $26 on Amazon, the original ColorForms set makes a great (and relatively inexpensive) gift for kids and designers of all ages.
Mmm color blocking. A selection of vintage jazz and classical album covers from the 1950’s and 1960’s via Project Thirty-Three, an online archive of scanned 33RPM record covers. The site is run by the same fellow who owns Jive Time Records, out in Seattle. Both worth checking out. 12 more after the break!
Side note – we hit 900 Likes on Facebook last night. Thanks to everyone!

Nothing is creepier than the thought of Fred Flintstone on Skype.
If you live in the US, the Alamo Drafthouse (an Austin film theater/institution) and Levi’s are kicking off their tour this year with these posters from the venerable Olly Moss. You can get the details and schedule for the roadshow right here and the poster goodness is below the cut. Some of these are almost better than the originals.
I wasn’t familiar with the poster design work of Paul Tebbott; however, now that I’ve seen it I kinda like it. It goes fittingly well with his band, Horizon Fire. It’s very…Boards of Canada-esque. You can see more of his stuff at his fantastically simple site right here and below the cut.
