In honor of all the Dutch postings lately I offer you Golden Earring’s Radar Love for the Daily Video. Ostensibly The Netherlands’ most famous band, this video offers all sorts of 70s goodness, including a sequined bolero jacket.

In addition to the font I posted about a few days ago, the Dutch government has also commissioned a commemorative 5 euro coin. Not only is this coin beautiful, but the design was very well thought out. You can read about the fascinating process of designing the coin in a post written by the winner, Stani.

The Dutch government commissioned an official font and logo via a design competition. You can see the winning entry by Peter Verheul over at designworkplan. I wonder if, now that we have a design savvy President we can expect to see something similar within the mish-mash of US Government websites and publications?
