T.I. - Paper Trail
Posted by Lee Steffen | Filed under Graphic Design, Music
This is one of the most beautiful and creative album concepts I have seen in years. Part of my admiration for this idea is the fact that the work is real, and the payoff truly shows. It is very rewarding to see something organic hit the mainstream every once in a while and this is no exception. The art was design/conceptualized by Ian Wright.

Cozy Seats in Economy Class?
Posted by Lee Steffen | Filed under Product Design
Tourists rejoice. Delta airlines recently announced that it will be installing The Cozy Suite in the economy sections of its Boeing 767s and 777s by 2010. You can recline without smacking into the person behind you, and there’s a footrest along with an extra 2 inches of legroom. Another major advantage: the passenger in the window seat can get to the aisle without the other two getting up!
