I love this set of “cordial invitations,” designed by Keetra Dean Dixon. The whimsical designs and messaging are helping to remedy my February blues. I would like to receive one of these cards, cordially inviting me to “Invest in the Fantastic,” “Make Luck,” or “Twist the Cynical Loop.” I love the delicate and playful quality in the typography – much of which appears to be created by combining geometric shapes and colors. See the individual cards after the jump.

“Afterparty” Wins PS1 Competition
I guess it is the end of the party. Following the amazing courtyard design last year by Work Architects, last week PS1 announced that the design above, by MOS architects Hilary Sample and Michael Meredith, would be gracing the courtyard this summer. MOS wins the 10th annual architectural invitation to design the courtyard space that houses PS1′s summertime outdoor dance party. An honor that grants them $70,000 to fulfill their dream design.
Perhaps it is just my intense love of last year’s exciting proposal, but personally, I can’t help but feel like the architects may have run out of things to do.

A Tour of Food in Japan
If you’ve looked at our photo journal you know that one of the most shocking things about our trip to Japan was that there wasn’t much sushi to be found. It turns out that the U.S. version of Japanese food I love so much is just that, a U.S. version of Japanese food.
The Japanese eat sashimi but only as a side dish, most often on special occasions, not really as a meal. As I discovered, a more traditional Japanese meal includes: ramen, rice, gelatinous rice products, eggs, and pork—lots of pork—in everything. Vegetarians, beware! Even my best-laid plans to have a tofu or egg dish always included pork somewhere.
