born of fire, raised from steel, and furnished by Ikea. I live in Minneapolis working full time as a data analyst. I like bikes, food and photography.
The Wire playing cards. I want these right now. I can’t even think of anything to say so here’s a description from the site. Click through for more.
If you’re one of the many people who discovered the HBO series The Wire after it had run its course (because, really, who watched it while it was on air?), you’ll like these playing cards by Spanish design studio Atipo.

Packing for my very first trip to Duluth and the North Shore. I’ll be sure to get some great pictures (I hope) to bring back to tumblr.

Minneapolis and St Paul neighborhood posters. Plus other cities too if you’re in to that sort of thing.

My favorite coffee shop Urban Bean (the Unhappy Hipster of coffee shops) has a new commercial out. They recently took over the old Muddy Waters space which means it is now super close to me. Great coffee, great aesthetic, great commercial.
I am prepared to have lots of fun with this new friend.
Highpoint Center for Printmaking is celebrating 10 years with the help from the MIA. A friend from high school, my high school art teacher, and most importantly my mom have all worked or currently work here. If you’ve never seen this place, it’s very cool. Their new location is on Lake at Colfax and they have open hours where you can walk in and browse (it’s half working space and half display space).

Here are images of the proposed redevelopment of the former Jaguar site at Washington & Hennepin. Downtown-based Ryan Cos. US Inc. is the developer on the project, which calls for 287 luxury apartments and a new Whole Foods grocery store at street level. The proposal is going before the Minneapolis City Planning Commission tonight.

Went on a river boat ride for work today. Saw all the familiar sights from a new angle… and drank a bit. These are the days of work that I like.
Parents are gone which means free laundry and yard lounging (Taken with instagram)
