Impressive updates from my good friend Mike Mcquade.
The dude continues to expand his range and perfect his craft — showing diversity within illustration, lettering, typography, and design.
Really great video showcasing a stunning breadth of work coming out of House Industries.

I initially discovered his work through FFFFound, and then Dribbble where he’s consistently posting great work with a solid overall aesthetic. You can sense his understanding of type and illustration, and see it applied to everything from gig posters to identity.

These experiences are as diverse as the places he’s acquired them — advertising and branding agencies, boutique design studios, and international publications. He’s created some stellar work along the way, for a very impressive roster of clients including, The New York Times Magazine, Nike, and I.D. magazine to name a few.

For 9 months he spent time at the shop organizing and analyzing artifacts, talking with the owners and investigating the visual language of this prolific Baltimore institution.
This specimen sheet series attempts to collect and organize Globe’s vast library of original graphics by documenting a singular exploration of form or content. Each specimen was printed using the original blocks found by scouring drawers, boxes, shelves, cabinets and cubby holes around the shop.

I’m a big fan of his typography and illustrations, good stuff.

I remember swooning over his identity & packaging work for The Chop Shop when I first came across on Ptarmak. His sensibility is evident throughout his work, and while some follows trend (which maybe he starts?), it does so in a way that makes it feel fresh and authentic. Almost effortless.
