design sites & some food

What a hectic full week of school, it has gone by fast though because I do enjoy all of my classes.  I get to do research all of the time and just enjoy designing and concepting, and I could not ask for more. 

Here are some Design Sites I have come across in the past few days researching, and are just my style.

1. Lowcountry Press// A local graduate has start up this buisness here in Savannah and its pure elegance.  Its not overdone and it just works.  So many letter press buissnesses I run across are typical and unoriginal, this one is still clean but with a southern twang.

2. Make and Matter// This austin based design house is my most favorite design company I have ever come across.  This site speaks me X23948237409827, my style perfectly.  I could stare at the design, and clean lines all day, a definate dream career.

3. The Dieline// A well organized packaging site.  There are many different categories, styles and designs.

SoHo South Cafe//







 SoHo South is located right on East Liberty Street here in Downtown Savannah.  Its a bit under the radar but is located right across from Mellow Mushroom (a pizza place).  Its a funky art spot with eclectic furnature and local art sprawled throughout.  The entrance is sort of a gift shop.  They offer takeout and sit-down lunch/dinner.

My friend Kaylee frequents the resurant often so she led the way.  The menu is a variety of soups/salads/ sandwiches and it was to die for! 



 Ahh the Monte Cristo, its hard to find a place that does it right and boy was this right.  Brioche bread with ham, turkey, bacon and cheese topped with a puff of powdered sugar and side of strawberry jam.  The side of salad was perfectly crisp and dressing was light and refreshing.  My mouth is watering while typing this, it was an experience to have again for sure!  My only downfall is that it is a bit pricey but with the fresh ingredients and great variety of flavors you do get what you pay for. 

Can't wait to head back!
