curbly: Love Where You Live
Love Where You Live. This is where my conversation with Bruno started. A project proposed with this ethic as a foundation gets me to the table, and it was a geat experience working to design a new web header for this nice DIY website, curbly. Designer Caroline Hadilaksono worked magic with my sketches to create the final design. Bruno tells the story on his website, HERE.

State Street, Late
A commission that came over a year ago from a friend, this print will be framed and given as a very late wedding gift to a certain couple who live in a certain apartment on a certain street in Brooklyn, New York City. * marks the spot. 
So, the lobby and its fancy glass doors did not make feature.
How late was this wedding gift? I think the wedding about three years ago, but I did not have photos to draw from until this year, thanks to nyc correspondent Hayliebird. I actually walked this very block and tried to take photos one year ago, but my camera battery gave out. (It's curious how the resulting colors of this image are the same as the google map that I posted to mark the street in last year's post...)
Are you curious about the first draft? I was asked to draw the foyer of the building and use it somehow in the composition. I tried...but the "skyline" of Manhattan as backdrop is not something Brooklyners are proud of.
So, the lobby and its fancy glass doors did not make feature.
