Last night I had the privilege of seeing ‘Objectified’ - a movie by Gary Hustwit, from ‘Helvetica’ fame. The film sparked some wonderful conversations, and a discussion led by a Vanderbilt sociology professor. Why do we have so much stuff? Why are people not satisfied with the stuff they have? Do we need more stuff because the stuff we have is inadequate, or because we are told that we need more stuff? Does stuff equal happiness?
Objectified describes itself like this: ‘Objectified is a feature-length documentary about our complex relationship with manufactured objects and, by extension, the people who design them. It’s a look at the creativity at work behind everything from toothbrushes to tech gadgets. It’s about the designers who re-examine, re-evaluate and re-invent our manufactured environment on a daily basis. It’s about personal expression, identity, consumerism, and sustainability.’
This beautiful film is definitely worth a look.

Scott Reifsnyder is a graphic designer who lives in Lititz and works for HeadCase Design. He sent WeAreLancaster some kind words this week and I checked out his work. I love it. Check out more of his work at his site. Here’s a great book based on Johnny Cash’s song ‘The Man Who Didn’t Cry.’ Use should also check out the animation here.
Here’s another beautiful piece.

I recently stumbled upon the wonderful work of Kevin Cornell. Kevin is a designer and illustrator currently based in Philadelphia, PA. He operates a quirky blog called Bearskinrug, where he employs an engaging and sometimes silly writing style.
In addition to creating ridiculously cool illustrations, Kevin has recently launched his first font, Phaeton. Not only is it his very first font, he has the proud distinction of offering it through Veer. Yes, we are all very jealous.
Read the entire post on Phaeton here.
Congratulations Kevin, keep designing type!
Read more about Phaeton and see all of Kevin’s beautiful work at Bearskinrug.

If your like me it was hard to believe that Lancaster, the home of the conservative Amish and Mennonites was at one time considered “The Munich of the New World”…That was until I started doing some research into the rich history of Lancaster’s thirsty.
It seems that at first, that the local brewers were nothing more than innkeepers who brewed beer in the back rooms of their establishments. By the late eighteenth century, brewing had become a respectable and booming business. Many of the original brewers were English and Scottish immigrants who perfected their brew craft so well that by the mid 1800’s Lancaster County was producing seven percent of all beer, ale and lager in the United States.
The brewing industry in Lancaster grew and by the time of Prohibition, 14 breweries were in operation throughout the county. Lancaster is credited with having produced more beer than any other American city of similar size in the last century. Not too shabby!

“Beyond the age of information is the age of choices” - Charles Eames

Found this talk on Ted.com and wanted to share it. Eames Demetrios calls creatives to have a holistic view of design. Design is a life skill, more than a professional skill. Ted summarizes this way: “The legendary design team Charles and Ray Eames made films, houses and classic midcentury modern furniture. Eames Demetrios, their grandson, shows rarely seen films and archival footage in a lively, loving tribute to their creative process.”
