i thought it would be fun to close out the week with this great design project from KURO in long beach, california. kuro designed the visual identity and some additional packaging/design work for a new cowboy-themed luxury b&b in nevada called “a cowboy’s dream“. i love all of the little cards, letterhead and logo work they did for them- it really brings the idea of a cool cowboy hotel to life. and the extra dry goods designs? seriously cute. it’s enough to make me want to pack up my gear and head back to montana or somewhere else with wide open skies. click here for more information on kuro and this project, and click here to check out a cowboy’s dream in nevada.

Love the cowboy’s dream. Along with post about slacking off (which I loved), I agree– Montana, Utah, wide open spaces are calling me. :)

i love the sepia look of the ink/paper combo – brilliant!
Long time reader, first time poster, inspired to post and say thanks for the BC love! A Vancouver guide AND the Comox Valley?! Is there something you’re buttering us up for? :)
