Blogs/Studios/Designers..
Beast Pieces is the letterpress and design blog of Studio On Fire.
Studio On Fire is a hybrid design and letterpress workspace in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
In our design services, we are committed to making distinctive work that engages the senses.
In our printing, we are committed to making letterpress one of the most premium and relevant production methods for contemporary design.
We print both our own design work and letterpress projects that come from other creatives agencies and individuals around the country. This blog is our forum to showcase that work and provide others a glimpse into our process. We also share press room tips gained from a decades worth of experience in design and letterpress.
designworklife is a part of Seamless Creative, a New York City-based design studio. Updated daily, dwl was established to catalog and share design-centric inspiration.
This design blog is a daily diary of my inspirations. I love to come across amazing work that makes me want to tell a story in images....and a few words too. You will find the work of photographers, stylists, designers, tours of private homes and beautiful architectural spaces in Scandinavia and beyond.

A Couple That Loves to Create
Eight Hour Day is a design boutique, and we love what we do. It’s who we are. As a husband and wife team working side by side, we aspire for the designed life(style): a place where work, life and inspiration are all equal and integrated organically.
Our goal is to create work that is honest. Solutions that are exploratory, educational and inspirational. Creative that is conceptually interesting and visually stunning. We design with the belief that process and collaboration should be as exciting and fun as the end result.
Launched in 2009 — and now in its second version as of March, 2012 — FPO (For Print Only) is a blog dedicated to the visual stimulus and the detailing of the development and production of printed matter: Annual reports, books, business cards, stationery suites, collateral materials, posters, packaging and anything else where ink meets substrate.
The name of the blog is inspired by the decades-old tradition of labeling images, illustration, and/or text that are not ready to print yet as FPO, “For Placement Only.” The play on words was very straightforward: Our blog will be only… for… print, so we named it For Print Only, “FPO.”
The content of FPO is generated from submissions by our readers. When provided, we will have the full scope of production details and project overview but we will also post projects where we are unable to gather all that information if we think they are worth sharing despite the lack of details.
