Economy Class Seating On A Pan Am 747 In The Late 1960's.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

(Yes, it's a staged photo, but it must have borne some resemblance to the real thing. Also - some of the comments are pretty awesome.)

Lenticular Labeling.

I'm sure it's not exactly eco-friendly, but this is SUCH a smart idea. And could make for some really amazing packaging options.

Using a ‘lenticular’ label on their 100ml products allows for four unique info panels to be seen at different angles. This space saving technology makes for a graphically innovative travel sized solution.

A Breathing Earth

Mesmerizing and lovely. And made by a fellow midwestern User Experience professional. (Yay!)

Made possible by the tremendous folks of the NASA Visible Earth team, I downloaded the twelve cloud-free satellite imagery mosaics of Earth ("Blue Marble Next Generation") at each month of the year.  I wrapped them into some fun projections then stitched them together into a couple animated gifs... 

Having spent much of my life living near the center of that mitten-shaped peninsula in North America, I have had a consistent seasonal metronome through which I track the years of my life. When I stitch together what can be an impersonal snapshot of an entire planet, all of the sudden I see a thing with a heartbeat.

Paul Friedrich.

One of my favorite things about Comic Con every summer is checking out the illustrator section of the exhibit floor. The last two years, I've haven't been able to pass up Paul Friedrich's work. If you have a beloved nerd in your life, you might consider checking out Paul's etsy store.

Crystal Palace digs: before & after.

Ever since I first heard about the original Crystal Palace in London, I've been enamored by it. So, when I saw this post on Apartment Therapy about a woman who renovated the bathrooms of the old girl, I was completely giddy. So. Fab.

I've long admired the ingenuity of Londoners when it comes to small spaces. Their storied city of eight million has housing prices even higher than New York's, which means crafty Londoners often have to squeeze in wherever they can. (Case in point: this 77 square foot apartment on the market a few years ago for $335K.) But young architect Laura Clark really takes the cake. She's managed to create a beautiful home — out of a public restroom.

Word map of British Isles.

Although word maps are starting to feel a little tired these days, the more I look at this one, the more I like it. If you're an Anglophile, you might, too. Amazing detail.

Create your own View-Master reels.

$30 for a View-Master and your own photo reel? Oh, HELL, yeah.

 

If you've picked up an original View-Master in the last few decades, chances are the images were shot by one man. Rich Dubnow(aka the Most Experienced 3D Photographer in the World) was lead photographer at View-Master for twenty years producing work for creative visionaries like Jim Henson and Steven Spielberg.

In 1997, Rich founded Image3D in the picturesque Pacific Northwest. Since then, we've grown from a kitchen table operation to a state-of-the-art facility producing custom-made 3D experiences for everyone from blushing brides to corporate titans.

...We have the patented Reel Builder. Customers are able to create custom, unique, and awe inspiring reels with their very own photographs. Our customers use them for everything from one-of-a-kind gifts, weddings, keepsakes, special announcements, portfolios, school projects, and more.

It's Hardly Noticeable | john william keedy

I'm completely in love with this photo series (which is clearly about OCD and anxiety). Even if you don't have the disorder, the tension in the photos is totally relatable and disturbing.
