Graphic Action started as a process showcase for Katherine Hughes’s MFA thesis at the Rhode Island School of Design. Since graduation, it’s devolved into a compost heap for graphic design scraps.

I don’t have any plan for them, but they were too pretty and saturated not to take home. There’s a lot of viking imagery in there. I know the hotels are in Scandinavia, but is the viking really the best symbol for hospitality? I ask you.</p>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111080361http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111080361Thu, 21 May 2009 14:38:00 -0400<img src="http://13.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrco24seh0AOvNjo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111079920http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111079920Thu, 21 May 2009 14:37:38 -0400<img src="http://11.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrcmkn5ZsBuDSnho1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111079537http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111079537Thu, 21 May 2009 14:36:29 -0400<img src="http://20.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrclyn5BzIWxU43o1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111079361http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111079361Thu, 21 May 2009 14:36:00 -0400<img src="http://18.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrckszl8kZsgKaEo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111079033http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111079033Thu, 21 May 2009 14:35:06 -0400<img src="http://3.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrck50wtMoEyp9bo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111078872http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111078872Thu, 21 May 2009 14:34:35 -0400<img src="http://15.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrcj8xlh2PHHZp3o1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111078642http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111078642Thu, 21 May 2009 14:33:53 -0400<img src="http://18.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrcid041sqK1F4yo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111078380http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111078380Thu, 21 May 2009 14:33:12 -0400<img src="http://11.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrchth5lT5AbIaCo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111078255http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111078255Thu, 21 May 2009 14:32:47 -0400<img src="http://15.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrcgw21FRQXHJ4Do1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111077978http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111077978Thu, 21 May 2009 14:32:03 -0400<img src="http://16.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNnrcfx84sQ69D9A9o1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111077743http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/111077743Thu, 21 May 2009 14:31:18 -0400<img src="http://9.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNe8g6zcejnc29bKto1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>This is the first of a series of photographs I took this summer at the Village Washtub in St. Johnsbury, VT.

His excitement was infectious, and he pointed out details that would be easy to overlook. Boston looks inordinately gray in these pictures. Perhaps it is the camera anticipating the impending descent into another New England winter. </p>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/51152113http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/51152113Sun, 21 Sep 2008 18:53:10 -0400<img src="http://10.media.tumblr.com/UYf1GbBrNe5t3gvl9lvNm4QYo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The Boston Fire Department IS a BFD.</p>http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/51151900http://graphicaction.tumblr.com/post/51151900Sun, 21 Sep 2008 18:49:00 -0400
