Debbie Millman will be interviewing Stefan Bucher today at noon on Design Matters. He'll be talking about his new book 100 Days of Monsters, among other things. Besides getting a mention in Wired earlier this week, the book was just reviewed in Communication Arts and got a nod from Very Short List. You can check out Stefan's creatures at DailyMonster.com.

All you in-house designers who work in cubicles will love the book I just received as a belated birthday gift: Overheard in the Office, Conversations from Water Coolers, Conference Rooms and Cubicles.

Overheard in a HOW Books meeting today: "A journal is just like a book with nothing printed in it."

Amazing designer and friend of HOW Stefan Bucher just sent over the trailer for a new movie called "The Fall." Stefan created the titles for the trailer, including the exquisite "Fall" logo, based on previous work he did for a book promoting the film. "The Fall" is directed by Tarsem Singh, the man behind 2000's gorgeous "The Cell," but he's probably most famous for his work on R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion" video. After watching the trailer, I can't wait to see this movie, which is supposed to open in the U.S. this spring.

Design*Sponge today points to a line of cute office supplies from Galison that features the designs of William Morris. What's really cool is that the Clover pattern supplies recently won a merit award in the HOW In-HOWse Design Awards. The pattern was reproduced from a wallpaper sample in the Brooklyn Museum of Art and can be found on file folders, journals, notepads and  more.

The judges for HOW's latest International Design Awards were mighty impressed with a collection of gig posters from north of the border. We've just posted an article about this Best of Show-winning project, as a sneak preview from our International Design Annual, on newsstands now.

Poking around on Flickr last night, I came across some playful lettering by designer Jon Contino, which made me want to know more. It turns out he has a blog as well as a site for his design studio Onetwentysix, so you can see work from early sketches through finals.
