AUGUSTO ARDUINI / GUIDITTA BRUSADELLI - NERBO








Great branding by Italian designer Augusto Arduini and Giuditta Brusadelli for a coffee shop. I've seen a lot of these backgrounds that have little icons tiling across and really like the look of it. The colours work perfectly too.

NEAL FLETCHER - BOUWEN TYPEFACE










Brilliantly simple typeface by designer Neal Fletcher. He shows the break down and components of the typeface by creating an almost 'meccano-esq' kit and making a physical version. The photos show how all the fonts are made up of about 12 individual elements. Very childish looking but extremely legible and a brilliant concept.

The bouwen website has a great feature where you can dissect each letter to see which parts are needed to construct each character and also a page to create your own word board, aptly named 'The Playground'.

MARTZI HEGEDŰS - FRUSTRO






Amazing type face by Martzi Hegedűs from behance's Typography Served page.

I'm a big fan of M. C. Escher inspired design. the whole impossibility design I think is so cool.

I had a go at rejuvinating my logo a few months back in this sort of Escher style, almost went with it as my logo until I developed more ideas.

ALEXANDER LIS - NIPPON CONNECTION











This guy seriously knows a strong brand and art direction. Even the colours work so well. Two colours I thought I hated but work so seamlessly in this project. The trend of folding paper was quite an underlying one, never massively took off and never got too big yet designers were aware of it as a trend. It works really well in this project, especially how it allows the videos to show all the sponsors logos in three waves, concealing the logos to reveal the next set and so on. Clever move.

JORDAN WALKER - SWEENEY TODD POSTER


Poster I did experimenting with type treatment and also fabricating environments. Placing together stock images and making it look like it was a composition.

BERGER & FÖHR - RECHNER APP







Beautifully simple calculator app for the iPhone by Berger & Föhr. The functions are applied by swiping the screen in different directions. For example, swiping right does addition sums where whiping upwards is the "equals" function.

The colours are really powerful, i'm a huge fan of mono colour design and this is a perfect example.

TRAVIS KOCHEL - FF CHARTWELL





A font that makes pie charts. Now this is cool.

Simple by inputting the data on a line of text and then changing the style, it creates really nice, clean, simple pie charts, bar charts, line graphs and more.

"Using OpenType features, simple strings of numbers are automatically transformed into charts. The visualized data remains editable, allowing for hassle-free updates and styling."

JAY-Z - BROOKLYN NETS IDENTITY



The title is serious. Jay-Z apparently designed this. If so I have to give props to the guy.

I posted a while back about Gaspard, one of Justice making a poster for a gig. It seems musicians are delving into the world of design. This is the reverse of what i'm doing. Has to work somewhere along the line.

The nice guys at The Design Society have sent me over some pictures of the last 5 issues of The Design Society Journal.

They're been super friendly and it should be getting send within a week or 2!

ABSTRAKT - CORPORATE IDENTITY 2011



Really nice and simple logo design by Abstrakt. Reminds me of V&A's logo and the simplicity in that.
