Made a really nice vivid version of the classic Windows XP “Bliss” wallpaper. It’s 6K, it’s square, so it works well for all devices. Oh, you’re a Mac person? Fun fact, the original photo was taken in Sonoma. So, there you go. lmnt.me/blog/wallpap...

Still immensely proud of the work Luka and I did on Notion’s 876-icon set. From people, clothes, medicine, and science, to nature, animals, household, and food, to vehicles and places, hobbies and holidays, tools and office supplies, and of course, a bunch of arrows. parakeet.co/glyphs/notion/

A few months ago, Luka and I made a new logo for Hammacher Schlemmer. I did a little interview with them about it, which has some peeks into @parakeet.co's process of making a logo for a company that has nearly 180 years of brand history. gnomenclature.hammacher.com/p/our-new-lo...

An app icon for a weekly photo journal used to organize and share memories. The materials that form the initial evoke the nostalgia of 80s/90s VHS covers. Check out the fun alternates! #design #icondesign #appicon parakeet.co/app-icons/re...
