TODAY IS THE DAY: Our book, "Draplin Design Co.: Pretty Much Everything" comes out today! We've been waiting for this one since that surreal day in November of 2014 when we got the call up to the big leagues by John Gall of Abrams Books! Things really heated up when we signed the contracts in March of 2015! That's when shit went from "maybe, huh, really?" to "we're doing this thing!", and quick. And today, the last year of fret, sweat, nightmares, freak-outs, production, color-correcting, scanning, compiling, scheming, kerning, dreaming, wondering, anticipation and general excitement comes to a big ol' "Pantone Orange 021" head. Be free, DDC Book. Get out there! - - - - GRAND CANYONS OF APPRECIATION ARE FELT: To my mom for always being there, to my dad wherever the hell he is in the cosmos, to Leigh for patience, to Leah, Jacob and Oliver, to sister Sarah, to Goo and Dave for helping me shoot shit, to all my rotgut buddies, heroes and mentors who wrote a paragraph on pages 006-007, to Mark Welsh, Neil Dacosta, Aaron Okayama and Micheal Poehlman for photography, Jim Coudal, Michele Seiler, Bryan Bedell, Matt Jorgensen and Dawson and all Field Notes peoples in Chicago, To John Gall at Abrams Books for reaching out, patience, guidance, goading, excellence and making this happen. To Gabe Levinson, Sarah Massey, Joseph Villella, Devin Grosz, Marti Malovany, Michael Jacobs, Denise LaCongo, Jennifer Brunn, Paul Colarusso, Tina Mories, Mamie VanLangen from Abrams Books. To Andrea Robinson, Peter Donahue, Mindy Koentopp and Jane Vandenberg of RR Donnelly for helping me make the slipcase. So many people wouldn't give me the time of day and you guys CAME THROUGH and made it happen for the book. Thank you. Brillianta 4196 forever! And finally, to all of you who bought one. Thanks, you guys. I didn't get into graphic design to make books. I got into graphic design to make a living. And today, my fuckin' mind is blown. Thank you for this privilege and opportunity, and for believing in me. And for believing in the DDC. Thank you.
EVERYTHING ELSE, EVERYTHING ELSE, EVERYTHING ELSE: When we first got this thing going, I had a long wishlist readied. And man, Abrams hit all the big ones for the book. Debossed cover, Orange 021 spot color throughout the entire book, 256 pages...I was in heaven. And the coolest part, the book would be super affordable at the $39.99 retail price. I was proud as hell of that. I remember not being able to afford big design books. So I'd flip through them and leave 'em behind. Our book? Viciously affordable. But of course, I went ape-shit and built a big list of "Everything Else" including a boss slipcase, mini prints, merit badge, decal sheet, bookmarks, a couple sets of fiercely limited edition Field Notes "Pretty Much Everything" edition and other goodies. Mystery items, too. That's a pretty big pile of stuff. And just to be clear, the DDC "Everything Else" Enhancement Kit DOES NOT come with the book. Buy that separately. The "EEEK" kit comes with a beautiful slipcase filled with items designed to enhance the book.
BUILT LIKE A BRICK SHITHOUSE: Wait until you see that slipcase up close! Beautiful orange Brillianta fabric wrapping and thick, thick walls. Will Protect your "Pretty Much Everything" from, well, pretty much everything.
ITEMIZED: DDC "Everything Else" Enhancement Kit, Item List: 01. EEEK-001 "Decal Sheet" (TO BE CLEAR: The DDC "Everything Else" Enhancement Kit DOES NOT come with the book. Buy that separately. This is for an amazing slipcase, Field Notes, mini prints and a ton of cool extras.) Click here to get in a little closer at all that gear packed into that slipcase! Ordering details below.

Product Description:
One of the coolest nights of my life was on April 4th, 2011. In a wild town called Austin. Bart Kibbe and Josh Kramer brought me down to Austin to do my talk to the creative community there. It was a long shot. We did a Kickstarter and raised funds for the whole mess. Hell, Evan and Dale came along too, those fucks. (For backup, in case we got jumped. Nothing to report.)
The show was incredible! We packed Lewis Carnegie FULL, and their court yard too! It was ferocious. That's the night I met all the Austin heavies, too! Geoff Peveto, DJ Stout, Marc English, John Tullis and so many other boos folks. Thank you. So fun. And then the next night, Industry did this cool screen printing party where people could pick and choose from a handful of designs I made. Tons of people came out and got a t-shirt. So, so cool. And one of those designs, that's the patch you are seeing here. Here's the thing: I make this stuff, and of course, I'm always going a little too fast. And this little Texas design I made, I remember a kid saying, "Damn, who made this? It's awesome." And I was standing behind him, listening and smiling. So five years later, I unearthed it and made a patch. That's what you are seeing up above. Texas. Thick Lines. Officially messing with Texas! Product Details:
01. Proudly made in the U.S.A.02. Durable embroidery. Long lasting. 02. Thick lines! 03. 2.75" x 2.75" in dimension. 04. Proudly manufactured by the longhorns at Brewery Outfitters! 05.

TODAY IS THE DAY, AUSTIN: I flew in yesterday, just minutes after President Obama landed. Got to see the ass-end of Air Force One on the tarmac, which was exciting as hell. Austin was buzzing for the president with stories of the motorcade, taco lunches and intense security. Man, I love our president. Just so thankful to have him leading the charge. Anyhoo, I grabbed my rental, raced to my hotel, unloaded my gear and started making my way into the city. Made it downtown in about 10 minutes, straight down MLK. Was robbed blind by some snake-eyed parking lot attendant so I could make my interview appointment at "Analog" by American Greetings. Whatever it takes. I'm down here to do my talk today! The schedule is up above. I'll be delivering a BLISTERING rendition of my Tall Tales multi-media fiasco, with extra emphasis on paper, slowing down and the wonders of ephemera in a world that just keeps getting fast and faster. Deep breaths, big world, deep breaths. Our slot is at 3:30pm at the Thirsty Nickel down on Trinity & East 6th Street. Open to the public! Come see the show, Austin! Thanks to all the good people of Mullen Lowe, Guild and American Greetings for making this event come to life. Thank you Yudit, Lauren, Enrique, Jonathan, Ruby, Caroline, Mike, Emily and all the folks who rolled the dice on me, and a cool event. - - - - AND CHECK IT OUT: I got to make the logo for the event! You'll see it above! So fun. Thanks! Come to the show! 3:30pm, you fire-ant-infested Austin'ers!

TODAY, WE PUT EVERYTHING UP ON THE WALL: We barely made it to San Francisco. A wild-eyed town. We're driving around the city, upside down and aimless. We're putting our faith in our Volvo drive train and transmission on the steepest of hills. We're parking and cranking our steering wheel towards the curb. We're walking up and down inclines. We're eating sandwiches on sourdough. We've got our ear to the ground for tremors of any/all sort. We're marveling at gingerbread details on row houses. We're distracted by the spiderweb of wires that hang over intersections. We're hearing sounds we've never heard before. We're smelling smells that we can't quite place. We're listening to the Red House Painters while the fogs rolls in. We're listening to assholes racing up and down the streets on the loudest of motorcycles. We're here and we're putting stuff up on the wall. Come to the show tomorrow night at 6pm! At the Mule Gallery on 80 Fresno Street! Our "DDC Mobile Command Pop-Up Shop" is in effect tomorrow night, and 12-6pm Saturday and Sunday. Posters, mini prints, pencils, Field Notes memo books, tote bags, action caps, beanies, porcelain cups, click pens, magnets, things, stuff, trinkets, goodies, doo-dads and what-the-hellls. Come hang out, San Francisco! Parking brake activated!

ONE MONTH OUT, SAN FRANCISCO: We're proud to announce a special event at Mule Gallery in San Francisco on March 4th! HERE'S THE DEAL: A couple months back, I finally got to sit down with the one and only Mike Monteiro over a healthy meal in the late San Francisco night. We discussed our lives, where we are from, our families, design, coding, rent, San Francisco, Portland and probably you too, at some point. Leigh McKolay as my witness, MANY TOPICS were covered. We agreed to hop on the "Let's Make Mistakes" podcast the next morning to go over said topics in finer, high fidelity detail, and you can hear that discussion here: "Let's Make Mistakes" Podcast - 161, Aaron Draplin of North America Mistakes? Shit, my stupid, weenie-ball, little life might just be one big mistake. I make mistakes, alright. Hourly. Anyhoo, somewhere in between the podcast and shooting the shit in a food cart court, the good people of Mule Design invited me down to do an art show in their new Mule Gallery space! No time was wasted in accepting. On March 4th, the doors will open at the Mule Gallery and you'll see precisely this: Everything we could get up on the wall. From colorful posters to catalog covers to magazine pages to patches to test prints to make-ready sheets to stickers to promo cards to pizza boxes to process sketches to printed proof to shitty, little logos to logos we shouldn't have been allowed to make to Field Notes. Everything we could pack in. On a couple walls for you to eyeball. For you to feel. To read. To wonder about. Everything we could drag down from Portland. No space will be wasted. This is what you'll see on the on the walls. Now, on the floor? You'll find a special, mobile command unit DDC Pop-Up Shop, with our complete offering of spirited merch items. We're dragging down a mountain of DDC merch for the event, which will all be "priced to move" at "San Francisco Only" prices. Seriously. Plus, we'll be unleashing a new San Francisco "Things We Love" poster, too. Hot off the presses. 4-color. Everything we've ever loved about San Francisco! These will be VIOLENTLY for sale. Very limited edition. All San Franciscans are invited! - - - - Here's the art show details: March 4–April 29, 2016.

TWO SHOWS, ATLANTA: I'll get to that in a sec. My day with Lakeland yesterday was AWESOME. Thank you to Sam and all the good folks of Florida Southern. Had a packed morning show, then tacos, then a packed workshop, then a packed, caffeinated Q & A at Concord Coffee and finally incredible Indian supper. DO NOT get in between me and a samosa. Don't. Anyhoo, a fun, wild day! Thank you, Florida. We're heading up to Atlanta this afternoon, for two shows at the Switchyards Downtown Club, well, right downtown in Atlanta. There's a show Wednesday night and a show Thursday night. Both are free. Links are below, Atlanta. We can tell you this much: We'll be mixing stuff up a bit each night...with a lambasting of tall tales, weird instances, hot topics, loose chatter, weird glances and uncomfortable pauses. All the while, drawing from our road experiences, so-called professional practices and, an upcoming book project that is UNSTOPPABLE at this point. Things might get a little weird each night. One thing will be consistent from night to night: We'll have a FULLY STOCKED DDC MERCH TABLE for all to decimate. We're lugging posters, nuggets, trinkets, Field Notes, weird plastic things, stickers, patches and what not up for the two events. At "Atlanta-Only" pricing. Seriously. Okay, the links: Draplin Design Co. at Switchyards Downtown Club, Wednesday, Jan. 27! Draplin Design Co. at Switchyards Downtown Club, Thursday, Jan. 28! Come to the shows, Atlanta! Two nights!
