Helvetica Baby Tee

Hijiri — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 21:54:26 +0000

I had to get this Helvetica baby onesie from American Apparel for Mili! (Of course, in letter M) Her size was all sold out so I got 12-18 month size… can’t wait for her to try it on. Pictures coming later then…

They also have a long sleeve lap tee:

Every Wednesdays now on, I’ll start posting about baby/kids related things. Mili was born on Wednesday so it makes sense for me… I didn’t want this blog to be all about baby stuff, but then, I wanted it to grow with me (and Mili) so just once a week, you’ll see some baby/kids content :)

p.s How awesome is this nursery room!! (Thank you, Niq)

Found Type: Jane’s Carousel

Hijiri — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 21:10:11 +0000

On the ground of Jane’s Carousel, there is a huge type (their logo, I guess, but I don’t see it on their website) carved into the asphalt it is really cool!

Letter S.

I wanted to take a whole picture, but it is so big that I couldn’t… the design is really nice, too. Happy found Tuesday!

Found Type: Red Dumpster

There is this red dumpster with big sprayed type on Water street… catches my eye!

*Every Tuesdays now on, you will see some “found” posts! Found Tuesday it is :)

One of the many reasons why I love my neighborhood; old brick building with type! :)

DUMBO Arts Festival 2011 (Night)

Hijiri — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 20:06:45 +0000

I really enjoyed DUMBO Arts Festival again this year, here are some photos from Friday night (it was raining so much…) — first couple are from the Manhattan Bridge Archway area.

and I can’t believe I missed this “Immersive Surfaces“! Found the YouTube video of it, how incredible!!

This project was my favorite — Sweet Stream Love’s River.

Visitors are invited to send short love notes by sms from their smartphone, to be displayed glowing in the rippling surface of the “water”: a surprise for the person you’re with, a note of longing to someone you haven’t seen for years, but can never forget, a word of thanks or a pang of loss.

I participated it, too :) I didn’t get to see my text message there, though.

Love how the type comes out and goes out… see my video I shot here:

Found Type: Anthropologie Store

Hijiri — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 16:32:00 +0000

I was in the neighborhood so I stopped by the Anthropologie store in Rockefeller Center last Friday — it’s always so inspirational! Found some types to share :)

Love the type wall (above) — letters are stamped randomly, but it also makes great textures… caught my eye.

and of course, the letter H :)

Even their SALE area had some great type, nice and big, white and red letters…

LOVE Wood Type Blocks

LOVE these wood type blocks! From Vintage Marvels. It’ll look awesome when you print, too, makes me excited!

Happy Friday with Love <3 :) xo Hijiri

Moss Covered Monogram Letter

Hijiri — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 19:41:16 +0000

Moss covered monogram letter by a stylish design. (hey, that’s my initial!) I’m sure the texture is great. For your special event or a little finishing touch to your garden area… (makes me want to have a little garden of my own.)

And yes, I would be getting a letter H :)
