This tweet was an exercise in how-many-hashtags-can-I-put-into-one-post. I thought you all would appreciate the content. I was up in St. Helena today visiting two of my very good friends. We went to Allegria restaurant, which was great, but, I could hardly stand to read the menu. All-caps papyrus titles with Bodoni-look-alike serif descriptions (I like bodoni, but it’s better for display text). It took all my self control not to take a picture of the menu too. I’m trying (and failing) to be less of a design snob. (I’m not trying that hard…) One of my friends tweeted back “Obviously I liked your picture because of your comment not because of the content.” clearly. papyrus is a crime against humanity.

This is tactile and beautiful and the craftsmanship is mouthwatering. And the concept is terrible and therefore awesome. Their work was featured on Colossal, and the curator, Christopher Jobson, sums it up quite nicely:
“This neon colored mutant hamburger is a new project from French paper-craft extraordinaires Lucie Thomas and Thibault Zimmermann of Zim and Zou. The piece was made for the February cover of Icon Magazine, and you can see much more over on Behance.”
And another of their projects can be seen here

This is pretty neat. Mostly it’s just a well-done stop animation film, but the concept is also cool. 100 ISD by Silvio Teixeira
