Cool Hunting
Brokendomer by Carol T Chung
Brokendomer is a Brooklyn underground hip-hop group. Music-wise I'll let you be the judge. What I'm interested in is the site. It's designed by Mark Forscher. Here's a sweet implementation of Flash Action Scripting to produce a layout that's aware of browser size. Play around with it and you'll notice if you change the window size the background gradation will re-adjust itself after you click on another link. There are also these random circles that pop up when you move your mouse over the page. And everytime you visit it, the little splatters and circles are different each time (like an iCandy Shuffle! woo, let's go crazy!). Plus for you coders, all the content is from one xml file, which makes it easy to update.

Green Lady: 10 Years
The design duo of Todd St. John and Gary Benzel who go by the name Green Lady, celebrate 10 years in the business with a new book published by Arkitip. Also the force behind HunterGatherer - a cross-disciplinary counterpart - the two have been responsible for MTV interstitials, animation and press kit design for Nike Considered (covered here), and have emblazoned wallets and skateboards...

Rise and Fall Floral Love Pillow
Just in time for Valentine's Day, Cool Hunting favorites Rise and Fall created a romantic heart-shaped pillow that wouldn't be complete without their hint of macabre. The Brooklyn-based design collective designed this black and white floral print with skulls cleverly hidden into the pattern (click on image for detailed view). Made by hand, the pillow fits in nicely with Rise and Fall's other efforts...

Mike Perry
One of the hardest working typographers we know, Mike Perry is currently working on his second book. Check out the Brooklyn-based designer's first book, "Hand Job: A Catalog of Type," which is a great collection of hand-drawn type out out by Princeton Architectural press. It's hard to look at this site and not be motivated to get working too!...

Design Police: Visual Enforcement Kit
Like those little stickies that say "Sign Here," the witty Visual Enforcement Kit points out (with excruciating detail) what needs attention, in this case in the world of 2D design. For anyone who's faced more than their share of design that needs help, the downloadable pdfs provide handy pre-printed critiques like, "Severe lack of creativity" and "Kern this!" We particularly like "Hire a copywriter"...
