The Surface to Air Spring/Summer Collection has been delivered and the guys and girls at Gargyle have it available. The “Classic Shirt V5 Oxford” offers a slim narrow fitting cut that has a great “classic plaid placket with mother of pearl buttons.” The clean “S2A” embroidered logo adds to the sophisticated look. The plaid detail at the closure of the shirt distinguishes it from every oxford shirt in the market today and it looks great tucked in. Gargyle has them.

Another well done in-house publication. Virginia’s Need Supply Co. delivers their Spring 2011 “Catalogue.” A bit of a farm feel to the styled shots, but less about the life in the field and more about enjoying the weather – at least that’s how this writer sees it. Beautifully shot and available now.

We remember being slightly skeptical when we first heard of File magazine. ‘A magazine we can watch and read’? nonsense! Then we actually got our mitts on a our copy and we were won over. Issue five has just came out and it looks to be just as good as the others. We’d love to frame that cover. (File Magazine)

Take a leap to see some spreads from the magazine.

Curated turns us onto this:

“This Saturday in San Diego, Mark Murphy will open an exhibition sharing over 100 works of fine art and fine art prints. 40 are framed, 60 are unframed, and there is also going to be a massive mural. In short, it’s a big helping of Mark Murphy design in a cohesive and thematic space.”
