Beautiful Typographic Work by Jordan Metcalf
One of the best places to keep up with what's going on in the graphic design world is without any doubt Behance. We've been following Behance since the beginning and it never ceases to impress us the work we see there from people from all over. A good example is Jordan Metcalf from Cape Town, South Africa and his amazing typographic works. Graphic designer and artist based in Cape Town, South Africa. I work both independently as a freelancer as well as collaboratively with 3 other designer/illustrators under the name Only Today.

One week in South Africa
Yeah, I got this opportunity and here I am in South Africa, precisely in Cape Town where I will stay for more 4 days. After that I will go to Johannesburg and back to Brazil. Cape Town is really beautiful, I have already visited some of the most famous turistic spots like Cape Point, Table Mountain, Waterfront and a lot of other places in downtown. Tomorrow I will go for a safari, but I will still keep wearing my Firefox t-shirt. However I have to say, Cape Point (Cape of Good Hope) and The Table Mountain have already payed my trip to South Africa, amazing views.The Cape of Good Hope (Afrikaans: Kaap die Goeie Hoop, Dutch: Kaap de Goede Hoop, Portuguese: Cabo da Boa Esperança) is a rocky headland on the Atlantic coast of South Africa. .... it is at the Cape of Good Hope that the persistent southerly extension of the African coast relents for the first time anywhere south of the equator and so the rounding of the Cape of Good Hope in 1498 was a major psychological and geographic milestone in the attempts by the Portuguese to establish a sea route to the Far East. The Cape of Good Hope is the legendary home of The Flying Dutchman. Crewed by tormented and damned ghostly sailors, it is doomed forever to beat its way through the adjacent waters without ever succeeding in rounding the headland. I will try to update the blog daily as I found an open wifi here. Otherwise I won´t pay because I cannot afford to pay the hotel´s 10 dollars for 20 minutes of access.Baie dankie (Thank you very much in Afrikaans) Cape of Good Hope Table Mountain My parents and our Jumbo jet
