This should have been posted on the Valentines day, but oh well..
Personally, I find Valentines day too... ehm, how can I say this. To say that it is a commercialised, gift based, exploited, material event would probably cover it. It is a shame how something that is meant as a nice reminder/event has turned into a weapon for shops to say "Buy this to your love/crush. If you don't, you are a selfish piece of shit" (almost how Christmas is turning into as well..). Also, wouldn't it be much more appreciated if your loved one surprise you with something (does not have to be bought) on an ordinary day?
Anyway!
Joanna Behar is a french freelance designer based in New York. Despite my bitter taste for commercialised events like Valentine, I found this cute little project worth sharing. I really liked the humor and the visual puns she has used that only "geeky design people" would understand. A shame my boyfriend isn't in the same "geek-world" as I am, or else I would've considered giving one to him. On an other day than Valentine...
Enjoy :)
