Three brand new museum brands on the Parkway in Philly. How we feeling? PMA Rodin Calder Gardens

As a small biz finding a good accountant is ROUGH. You know it & I know it. Town.com is looking to change that & make doing your taxes a lot less stressful. Fully custom wordmark by Dayan D'Aniello & @alexanderson001.bsky.social. Also, Alex killed it on these really fun posters.

Whyyyyyy hasn't anyone told me about this type foundry?! www.oldcitymailroom.com/font-shop

This Friday I'm joining some of my favorite designers to talk about what everyone fears the most...your favorite logo dying. I'm sharing a little behind-the-scenes look at our killed work for The George. It's a free event, all you have to do is RSVP here partiful.com/e/0lp8ysu3Zd...

Some killed logos and trinkets from a project about data. Collab with @alexanderson001.bsky.social on those fun posters.

Screw it, here's all of the google fonts that are actually good categorized by "vibe". Enjoy. www.figma.com/design/lWrI1...

Two years ago on this exact day we presented a brand that changed our studio forever. Shout out to Henry Modisett & Phi Hoang for trusting the vision on round one. I've seen very few people roll out a brand as fast as them. Thanks for giving us a shot. <3

Weird request here but where are we finding 80's script type like this these days? Dafont? Do I have to paint it by hand?

Working on something about butterflies. JK it's about AI. Collab with my boy Tully Ryan.

Uh oh they are giving me a microphone again! I'm so excited to talk about a new project that we've been working on for awhile now. The case study is already 20-mins long so I know no one is actually going to read it. No worries—I'll just walk you through it live!! Link to tickets in thread below.

Came into the office this weekend to build a new standing desk for Tully. Left with an admiration for how far we’ve come. Hyped on this every day.

Some days I think to myself, why am I doing my life on hard mode? Stressed out all the time. Pushing myself to be better every day. When instead I could just make a tee shirt that says “my bestie is messy” and make like $3M off of that.

Today is the day! We’re speaking about the wild west of collaborative brand design on the main stage at 2pm PT (5pm ET). If you’d like to live stream it for free you just need to sign up at the link below! We promise it will be fun. reg.config.figma.com/flow/figma/c...

I'm so so excited that these new cards got finished just in time for @figma's Config!! I wanted to have cards that showed the entire teams different personalities so we got a beveled, foiled letterpressed fronts & then blank backs so everyone could stamp on their own custom designs.

☁️ HEAD IN THE CLOUDS ☁️ ❤️ HEART ON MY SLEEVE ❤️ New studio poster for @buildingbok’s open studios this FRIDAY (5/2 from 5-9)!!!! Pop up to the fifth floor and we’re smack dab in the middle of the building. We’ll be selling all kinds of posters, pennants, and whatnots.

Oh my god look at theseeeeeeeeee stamps. This is just a piece of a special thing we’re making for config. Stay tuned!

✨ Meet our newest S&D designer Tully Ryan ✨ Tully actually joined us about a year ago as a contractor & then impressed us so much with his skill & amazing attitude that we knew he would be an incredible addition to our extremely tight-knit team. Also a great bowler.

⭐️ No one rides alone ⭐️

2 weeks until Config!!!

Killed slides about sharing your work on the internet.

Just printed the dumbest thing in the world.

New one for Gamma Logo by Summer McClure Thanks to Grant Lee & Melissae Elhajj for jamming with us on this one. Get your ideas out there at gamma.app

Question: What's your favorite quirky font foundry? Stuff like metis-foundry.com and bb-bureau.fr

In hindsight maybe eating oysters from a mason jar that had been sitting on the table for an undisclosed amount of time was a bad idea.

Should designers skateboard? Absolutely.

Prepping my slides for config. I think they are going to love this one.

Been on the hunt for this cutie for awhile. Happy to have it nicely framed so I can smile at it every day.

Animal Collective was really cooking with the I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls line in 2009

🌉 WE’RE SPEAKING AT CONFIG 🌁 So excited to announce that Smith & Diction is taking the stage to talk all about how Figma is the best tool for brand designers. We’ll be giving a look behind the curtain to show what our insanely collaborative process looks like.

TFW you save the best overlapped masterpiece of a chip until the end. Pure bliss in a bite.

“Hey! Haim walkin’ here!” - the Haim sisters in NYC

It's 2025 and we still cant copy live text styles from Illustrator to InDesign.

OH MY GOD THIS CASE STUDY IS COMING SO SOON. Two years in the making. Justin Lawes crushed this 3D so hard it turned into stone.

So many ask what the font? So few ask why the font?

Do you still wait 10 seconds after you unplug something before you plug it back in or are you normal?

Now more than ever.

I apologize to anyone that texts me after 9PM. I'm absolutely going to forget I read it and probably not going to respond the next day.

Right place. Right rocketship.

Ladies and gentleman we have a winner.

🤠 Yeehaw 🤠 Just presented R1 of a sprint-ish thing for a hotel in West Yellowstone. Full team went absolutely wild again. Turns out we love hotel projects. Here's the figma file so you can see the whole thing. www.figma.com/design/ZUmA9...

Since we're writing love letters to Philly...last week Smith & Diction was featured on @creativeboom.com. I spewed my guts on why I love being from here & how it's made us into the studio we are today. Philly forever! Give it a read below www.creativeboom.com/inspiration/...

It’s time to buy some dope fonts baby.

Working on something so incredibly exciting.

This is an insane question but who's got the tip on the best "rope" font??

I love that the inventor of the dishwasher was like, “Okay, hear me out, lava…..but in a cube that’s in your house.”

I freakin love the beginnings of projects. What do you mean I get to try literally ANYTHING?! Anyone that complains about being a designer has lost the plot.

Having taste sucks. Like what do you mean I’m obsessed with this one of a kind vintage Moroccan rug that is so expensive you have to call someone to get the price.

Got back from Disney on Monday and I've been listening to the EPCOT music on a constant loop. My evolution to full on Disney Adult is almost complete.

Sometimes we make goofy things too. Made this mascot for an AI company that sadly got killed. I'm always blown away with all the expressions you can make just with mouth position or pupil placement. Maybe in a past life I just made cartoons??
