Recent Designs by Kamma Claire

I was feeling the creative itch and pretty much thrust myself full force into some freelance design projects. I currently have a few projects in the works.

First, I designed a flier for my friend Liz's birthday bash. I love this font, Parfait, and I have been trying to find an excuse to use it on everything I design lately. I love typography, as some of my favorite designs are solely type based.

I'm also working on designing some logos for a start up project called the Forever Package, which will consist of a wedding package that includes website and invitation design and video services all in one. My friend Paul started a web design firm recently and we've always wanted to collaborate, so the Forever Package was a perfect excuse and I'm really excited for it to come to life.

I'm also working on designing a logo for my friend Kenny's new boutique called the Supply Room, opening within the Presidio Motel in Santa Barbara come June. I can't wait to see the shop, I know it will have amazing wares as Kenny has the best taste. Lots of fun stuff going on!

Spring Fever

Wow! This past month has been a whirlwind of events and it's wrapping up to be quite a successful leap into Spring. With a bike trip to Napa with the Fensters' to "camping" in the fabulous yurts at Treebones Resort in Big Sur with my best girlfriends from college and topping it off with Sarah and Paul's gorgeous Presidio wedding it's been quite a ride. Some of my favorite photos from the past month are below. Enjoy!

Photography: Sol Hashemi

I stumbled upon some great work by Washington based photographer Sol Hashemi. I particularly like his Eight Bottles of Champagne piece from 2009. I love that it's all older business women getting sprayed while the men look on with such excitement. Just look at some of their expressions, they're awesome. All of Hashemi's work is a little strange but in a good way. I feel like we'd probably be friends. Here are some of my favorites:

Jewelry: Iosselliani

The Italian jewelry designer Iosselliani has some awesome finds. I really want these amazing Stacked Feather & Rhinestone Rings and the Chain & Turquoise Necklace with Fringe.

Fashion: 3.1 Phillip Lim Sequin Broomstick Pleated Dress

Pretty Thangs

What a Day for a Daydream

Fashion: Alexandra Cassaniti Face It Sunglasses

I could never pull these off, but for $80 a pop, these Alexandra Cassanti Face It sunglasses are kinda rad...

School's Out Forever...

I can't believe it's already been 10 years since I graduated high school. Little did I know that when I signed up to be Senior Class Vice President that I would be tasked with the duty of planning the reunion. Luckily, my graduating class was only around 100 people and we're a low key bunch, so we'll just be having a late summer afternoon family style BBQ and bocce ball games at a park by ocean in my hometown Cambria, followed by a stint at the local saloon. Yes, we have a saloon. Check out the invitation flier I designed to help spread the word. Our mascot was a bronco by the way...

Spring is in the Air

I love these photographs from Paranaiv by Are Sundnes! The colors! The textures! The patterns! Floral!!
