This morning’s two comes from the super duper Owen Gildersleeve. Owen is an illustrator, designer, and set maker based in London. In addition to completing work for an impressive roster of clients, Owen is also part of Many Hands, an online shop offering a carefully curated selection of work by established and emerging artists.

Our next celebratory 2 comes from Lee Wilson. Lee is a designer at the fabulous Bloomberg Businessweek and art director of The Feathertale Review. He’s also a stylish dude — check out those patterned cuffs.

Issue 2 has arrived! To celebrate, Gratuitous Type’s friends and contributors have created photos, drawings, and (in this case!) video to help us launch the issue. Each piece centers around the theme of “2”, and we’ll be rolling out this special work all week, while gently reminding you that you can buy the magazine here. GT is also available at stockists around the world, and should arrive at your favorite bookshops soon.
Starting our week of 2’s off with a (much-needed) jolt of caffeine is a film by Christian Sorensen Hansen. Christian is a multi-talented filmmaker/director/awesome dude who splits his time between both US coasts. Read more about Christian here and see his portfolio here.

Kern and Burn is a fantastic new project from Jessica Karle Heltzel and Tim Hoover focusing on the business of design. Their 100 Days of Design Entrepreneurship blog (currently on Day 58 — and counting) features conversations with design entrepreneurs like Armin Vit, Allan Chochinov, Khoi Vinh, and many more (Gratuitous Type among them!). Earlier this week, Kern and Burn launched their first Kickstarter campaign to generate funds for a K&B book — a worthy project well-worth a look (and a few bucks!).
