Ocean Day in California was on June 4th. A friend, Kevin Lozaw, participated in the San Francisco Ocean Beach location. He’s a photographer and shot these images of kids on the beach from a helicopter.

Here’s the full site with all the images.

Laser Paper Cutting

Caught this in the latest edition of HOW magazine. It’s a beautiful effect offered by LaserExcel.

Better Place Electric Cars

When you separate the battery from the car and view transportation as a sustainable service, you redefine the economics and experience of driving.

It’s a bold plan with lots of parts required for success.
Better Place is hoping to break the cycle of oil dependence.

Think of it like this – all these things are interconnected:
• The plug we use to charge our electric cars
• The people who drive those cars
• The planet on which we live
• Our mutual Prosperity

Check it out. If you’re persuaded, you can get involved on their social networking site called Planet Better Place.

Jeff King & Co Business System

The 3 PMS color business system for Jeff King & Co was printed on 28# Mohawk Options 100% Recycled as well as the Envelopes on Mohawk Options 70# PC 100. We chose these papers for their beautiful quality along with their committment to the environment. Talking about paper conjurs up scenes from The Office but one thing to note is Mohawk’s environmental calculator tool available to designers. It allows you to calculate the savings achieved by using their products. The business cards were printed on 130# Endeavour Velvet Cover.

We used Bacchus Press, a local green printer here in Emeryville. They are fantastic. High-quality, green printing with a committment to customer service. They really know printing and are happy to go through all your options thoroughly.

Colorstrology

Fun little program from Pantone that gives you your colorstrology.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
