The JFM 2007 Holiday Gift Guide

JFM box of gifts
At JFM, we have no shortage of design lust. We’ve come up with a dozen holiday gifts will keep your designer friend/colleague happy, productive and feeling appreciated.

Linotype
1. 1923 Manual of Linotype Typography.
It’s a total gem if you can score one (try Alibris or eBay). I promise your design peers will ooooh and ahhh with just a hint of jealousy.

Rubik’s Cube
2. Rubik’s Cube circa 1980. Keep those designer hands RSI-free.

Pantone
3. Pantone® Reference Library. Not sure who does much print work these days but it’s a great resource when you’re working on that last minute collateral project and want a stress-free press check.

Lamy Pen
4. Lamy Fountain Pens. My all time favorite everyday fountain pen. I did some of the Invitastic drawings with this pen.

Helvetica
5. Helvetica the Film. I hear it’s up for an oscar ;-)

MoMA
6. Membership to the MoMA, SAM, or your local museum.

Roost
7. Roost Glass Museum Dome and Base. Beautiful way to display your coral treasures or your latest Lego creation.

Fatboy
8. Fatboy Original. A giant, hip beanbag perfect for brainstorming during day or a quick cat nap for those late nights at the studio.

Pencils
9. Personalized Pencils. Old school yo.

Moleskins
10. Moleskin Notebooks. Soft, compact and perfect for storing those big ideas.

Nama Rococo
11. Nama Rococo wallpaper sheets. These gorgeous sheets can be hung like pieces of art.
