Finding Inspiration in the Urban Landscape

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

When I find myself in need of inspiration for starting a project that requires a focus on typography, I sometimes turn to the streets of Los Angeles. Thanks to the lack of control over billboards and signage, we are bombarded with all types of visuals  (some very good….some not so good) . Usually when I am sitting in traffic somewhere in the city, I find myself browsing the streets for interesting elements of type and how it is composed on a sign. Something that is raw and untouched will evoke an idea.  Here are a few shots, Natalie Schlocker

Welcome to Blots – the creative corner of DRS

Monday, June 1st, 2009

The purpose of Blots is to share raw insights into all things visual whether its industry related, technical information that is related to graphic arts or just something inspirational I come across that is worth sharing. In addition, if you see something out there and want to share, go ahead and send it my way.
I hope you will enjoy the future spots of information. Stay tuned. More to come!
