This week’s Flickr Friday brings you the work of graphic designer, art director, freelancer, Michael Paukner. I’ve been a sucker for charts, graphs and diagrams lately so I was happy to find Michael’s work. See his photo stream here.

These images posted in Erik Nitsche’s Photostream are of various General Dynamics ads and annual reports from the 1950’s. The photostream is maintained by BustBright in Los Angeles as a personal inventory of Nitsche’s work as well as a service for the design community. For those who don’t know Nitsche was a contemporary of Lester Beall, Paul Rand and Saul Bass. For more information about Nitsche check out this biography by Steven Heller.

While searching around the interwebs for a nice tut on how to make an iPhone app I came across iv_orlov’s photostream on Flickr. Completely unrelated to what I was looking for yet delightful. I really enjoy the color pallets and texture that each piece has. There’s a lot more too: see more here.

This week’s Flickr Friday features the photos and crochet sculptures of Irina Antonyuk, a.k.a. irenestrange. The crochet bird…er…containers caught my attention, and the remaining super-cute critters held it. The pool is rounded out by some cool photos (of which there seems to be no end when it comes to Japan…). Irene is apparently a packaging designer by trade, and makes these great creatures as hobby. You can find her Etsy store here.

This weeks Flickr Friday features image from Outofprint’s design book archive. Outofprint’s photostream mainly consists of Out-of-Print material in the form of books, magazines and posters that he has been collecting over the years.

This Flickr Friday we have photographer Craig McCormick. I think what stood out to me most about his work was that it seems thought out and well composed. I also like the sense of space in his photos. Of course there’s a bit of pattern in there too. You can see more in his photostream and on his site.
