Big Tame Hunting

Nood’s wooden hunting trophies ($60) are the perfect wry interior accessory for karma-conscious men. Made from laser-cut, slotted wood, each head is easy to assemble and light enough to hang anywhere. There’s also an entire preserves worth of species to choose from, including stags, rhinos, moose, lions, and bears — oh my! Of course, if [...]

Limited Edition Legends

The folks over at Sonic Editions have teamed up with our friend, and master photo hunter (we’re not talking bar games people) The Impossible Cool to produce a series of stunning prints covering ten of the greatest icons of all time (think Ali, Connery, McQueen, Newman, Hepburn, etc). Each image in the series is limited [...]

Fine Design

The work of Wall & Decò has nothing in common with the stuff you see on a typical Home Depot weekend. Yes, they technically make wallpaper, but they aren’t in the business of creating drab monothematic patterns. Instead, the firm is focused on balancing elements of photographic realism and graphic design to create wall-sized works [...]

Walletica

The combination of cartography and typography is pretty much everything GP could ask for in a print. Clearly we’re not alone in this sentiment, judging by Axis Map’s decision to create the Typographic Maps ($15-$195) series. These prints accurately depict the streets, highways, parks, neighborhoods, coastlines, and physical features of Chicago or Boston using nothing [...]

10 Movie Posters Inspired by Men's Style

What can we say? We’re suckers for cool posters that go above and beyond the typical dorm room fair. This latest batch we’ve discovered by Moxy Creative highlights 10 films via their iconic or hilarious style. Available as 11.75″ x 15.5″ prints, buying one will cost your $30 plus $7 shipping — which is pretty [...]

Baseball Card for Adults

As a kid, dropping $2.99 on a pack of baseball cards came as naturally as ordering sprinkles on your ice cream. The pictures on the front were awesome, and the stats on the back were, well, stats. As we’ve grown up (term used loosely) the stats we used to ignore are now the same numbers [...]

Luke... I Am Your Travel Agent

Justin Van Genderen, a graphic designer from Chicago (not Dagobah), has crafted these beautifully minimalist travel posters that remind us of those deco pieces from decades past. However, unlike those that lured countless Americans down Route 66 and to the Grand Canyon in the backs of station wagons, these point wandering souls towards notable destinations [...]

Television Shows Get the Modern Pop Art Treatment

If you liked the minimalist Quentin Tarantino Film posters or the international year of astronomy prints that we featured recently, then you’ll love this collection of Iconic TV posters brought to our attention by Boing Boing. Conceived by Austrian designer Albert Exergian, these prints come from his love of posters, modernism, and, of course, television. [...]

Antique prints as modern decor? Trust me, it works.

A man’s home should make a statement and a lot of making that statement comes from his decor. When framed properly and hung sparsely (think: one), antique maps are a unique way to liven up a room and provide a point of attention and focus. It offers the perfect offset to today’s square, geometric designs [...]

It’s time for you to take down those movie posters down from your walls and upgrade to art. It doesn’t have to be some vintage piece that costs more than your parents house but that doesn’t mean you can’t make it look like you care a little about the one’s that matter. Take for example [...]
