The Geometry of Pasta

If I had to dream up a graphic designer’s ideal cookbook The Geometry of Pasta by designer Caz Hildebrand and chef Jacob Kenedy just might be it. The geometric black and white illustrations make this a must-have for your kitchen as well as your coffee table. The science, culture, and philosophy behind pasta and its myriad of shapes is paired with over 100 recipes from Kenedy to make this cookbook a masterpiece in every way. (via Pattern Pulp)

More Ways to Help Japan

Ever since last Sunday’s Help Japan post I’ve received more emails than I can count, all from artists and readers pointing out other ways to help the ravaged country. Here’s a collection of more pieces, purchase one and all proceeds will go towards rescue and rebuilding efforts.

Glass Jar Goods

There’s something about foods packaged in glass jars that makes it seem that much more delectable. Maybe it’s that we can actually see what we’re getting, or that it makes us think of someone lovingly preparing the goods in their kitchen. Or maybe even that there’s something we can take away from the experience itself, the jar. Whatever the reason, I’m on board with it.
