Looks like good Retro Graphic Design by Mark Weaver

From the ones I've reviewed, it's one of my favorite. There's a lots of garbage in this trend. But it's on the rise, so let's keep an eye on it... by Lucile Mar 3

Trop stylé l'étalon en costard! by Elrring Peace Mar 3

http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2008/04/21/celebration-of-vintage-and-retro-design/ Retro and vintage designs are often considered as being outdated, looking old, unattractive and dull. That’s not true. Although compared to modern design, retro is mostly a completely different realm, it has a large variety of benefits modern graphic designers often tend to overlook. And that’s a pity. Because we, as designers, can learn a lot from it.

Geek upcycling: When stuff becomes things

Between Steampunk inventions, games emulating old-school pixel art and retrofitting electronics into antique shells, some artists, product designers and stalwart retro-heads have become obsessed with nostalgic art forms and archaic products. Merge this with upcycling, the art of transforming old junk into trendy new products, and you have a selection of craft projects that show off your favourite obsolete tech and broken gadgets as fashionable jewellery, stylish clocks and other conversation pieces. The suitably named Flickr user " stuff made from stuff ", has made an entire gallery from sticking clock hands onto all manner of circular gizmos. His chronometric designs include a hard drive (above), a CD drive, bike cogs and cranks, chopped up motherboards and record turntables.
