Artboredom is the
portfolio + propaganda home of Chris Huller

This site is the dictionary definition of the word sandbox. Script conflicts, FAILS, and questionable behavior all leave a pleasant aroma. On good days you can see examples of previous web + graphic design projects.

More about me if you have the time!

Gettin' My CMYK On!

When you're staring at lines of code for days on end you need visual stimulus to keep your creative brain working at peak efficiency. Here are a few posters I've created for myself for others to see. I eventually may get some of these printed to offer them for sale.

Big Broken Hyphens

Extra-tasty Helvetica shirts available from the HOTKUNST webstore.

If you don't like Helvetica, there's a hyphen! And it's in the wrong place! Bad punctuation is so hot right now.

Swiss Font Porn

Trendhumping on multiple levels but when put together makes a fine shirt. Or at least one I want to wear.

The Webodega is open late to relieve you of your monetary denominations.

Dude. What's going on with your headers?

Artboredom is a reflection of my multi-faceted visualocity so I feel REALLY constricted whittling that down to just one, single representative image.

So I didn't. Give 'em a refresh and find out.

Work So Hard. Just Not Here.

Never burn your bridges. Period. An unbelievable opportunity from an unexpected source!

Back where it all started!

I started a new job right around the time I last posted here in September. Which was convenient considering who I was doing websites for wasn’t paying me any longer. To be fair though, the clients weren’t paying them, so it’s hard to pay me in return. Regardless, I’m now working for a small chain of bicycle retail stores here in the DC/VA/MD area called Revolution Cycles.

I worked for Revolution from 2000-2004. That’s when the design bug really infected me. Started doing signage, business cards, and even a logo. I’ve been designing ever since. Now coming back into the fold I actually have some idea of what design is. Which is good considering it’s my job! I’ve been hired officially as an Assistant Buyer & Marketing Manager. read the rest  »

Serif Love – Flickr

Self-inflated importance is delicious.

Look! I’m an über-important designer!

Look at me cranking out the serious design work. Notice how grown up I appear by using a seriffed font in my piece. Also notice how important I am by the stance that I take by calling out other designers that don’t like using seriffed fonts in their work.

Whatever. Bodoni Poster is super-retro-trendy right now so it’s no stretch to use it in work such as this. Although I recently used FritzQuadrata on a logo that a client loved. So yeah, I’m a serified baller. Oh snap - serified! Another poster!

I’m a frickin’ genius!

Anyway, if you’re interested check out some of the other typo pieces I’ve posted on Flickr.

Gots Me A New Twit Back

This gots to get me more followers! Makes my SEO more better!

Artboredom Twitter Background

Had a slight burst of creativity today. So I wasted it on a new Twitter background. Kindof a mishmash of crap I had in the Bridge (see what I did there?) so I cooked up something new with it. Got some trendy color circles that look like they’re floating with some of the far away. That was from some tutorial. If I find the link I’ll add it.

Then I switched up HARD and threw down with some Bodini Poster and Trade Gothic. Got my Swiss on without having to resort to the old standby. White letters left-justified on a black background makes it Swiss. I read that or saw it somewhere.

For those on displays larger than 20” who also stretch their browsers to fit that ridiculous size, I have included a special, personalized message. Enjoy.
