After a killer live show, I’m usually the first one in line for band merchandise. T-shirts are an essential for promoting any band, but now bands can offer their bookish fans something new: laser engraved Moleskine notebooks. The Portland based band,Yacht came up with a great design to help promote their current world tour. If you haven’t heard their music, check them out - It’ll knock your socks off!

I’d like to welcome Portuguese artist and designer, David Carvalho (aka Hello Karpa).



David has been creating since he was a child, and has designed everything from logotypes to skateboards. David launched the first design related PDF magazine, Camouflage, in 2002 and has participated at exhibitions in London, Paris, Bruxelles, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Moscow, Tokyo, Barcelona, Lisbon, Porto, Milan, and São Paulo. Check out more of his work at Hello Karpa.

Checkout the new laser engraved Moleskine designs at Engrave Your Book by UK illustrator, Will Scobie.

The design on the right is called “The hands that took control”, and is typical of Scobie’s one-line illustration style. According to Will, “The majority of my work is based around creating images using one initial line. I incorporate this technique into my drawing, collage and digital work.” To see more of his work visit Reverie Create
