“Justin Melnick is an avid photographer, digital artist, and has spent time oversees in the Middle East. All of these influences have come together in his latest project, titled ARM•ME Melnick imagines — quite vividly — what Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Pucci, and Chanel would add to standard ammunition. The exhibition starts September 2nd at Gallery 385 in New York City. The outcome is a compelling statement that questions how we — individually and as a nation — spend our money, contrasting the abundance of weaponry with the scarcity of high-end luxury goods and some pretty amazing imagery.”

Daily Slurp is an awesome site for daily inspiration in web design. Patrick McNeal, the mind behind Daily Slurp & Design Meltdown, has accumulated over 10,000 links to beautifully designed sites since starting Daily Slurp. Now you can search that massive database of links & screenshots by color. His Color Search feature allows you to pick a main color and a highlight color. Check it out for yourself. Each search I’ve submitted pulls up new sites I haven’t seen before. Great work Patrick!!
