Helsinki-based Werklig is doing some really lovely work. I love getting to see how a design studio makes their mark on whole buildings, not just bits of paper or the corner of the internet. Seeing how a brand can take over a space and make it something unique. ...

The students here at the Sydney college were kicking back with a few drinks after class a couple of Fridays ago, and talk turned to favourite smells. That smell right before a thunderstorm. The smell of a new car. The smell of new tennis balls, and old books. It feels like Commodity heard that conversation and...FIJI Airways
Category: Designers/Studios, Illustration,
Fiji Airways underwent a complete rebrand to more closely align the airline with its proud Fijian heritage. The previous logo had no relation to the origin of Fiji and was not appealing to the eye, thus the decision to rebrand to Fiji Airways. The part I love most about the new design of the logo was that it was designed by a local Masai art designer from Fiji. The detail and meaning within the lo...

Manual "San Francisco Design Week" Re-Brand
Category: Designers/Studios,
I think the re-brand of San Francisco Design Week is beautiful and adaptable, as well as being simple and clever. I love that the type in block allows the typeface to be translated into a different colour easily, while keeping the effectiveness of the logo. I love the idea of the letters peeking over each other - emulating the houses in the San Francisco hills. I think it's a personal touch that r...

I love the simple elegance of these designs. Najera shows great attention to detail in the design of her nature inspired typeface. Many of her pieces have allusions to natural elements and I like that old biology specimen feel. She shows sophistication in her catalog design, clearly knowing when images and text take their turn at being the focal point. Having only graduated with a degree in il...

I love the work of Swedish design studio, Kasper Florio! They have great examples of how to use type as a graphic, creating modern design with minimal colour and experimenting with the boundaries of margins and columns. They specialize in creative fields; fashion, art and music mainly. ...

Category: Design / Typography, Designers/Studios,
Looking into typography & type packages, I immediately thought of Gemma O'Brien after seeing her speak & perform her process at various creative events in Australia. She is a real enthusiast for type, she calls herself a 'letterer' & treats the work she creates as Art. They are a visual masterpiece, all hand drawn & crafted with thought & process. She creates type packages for commercial use, but ...Amber Asay
Category: Designers/Studios,
I adore the work of Amber Asay, a recent graduate of BYU university who is living and working in Orlando Florida and interning at Disney Design Group. The examples of her work are student projects, and I was really impressed with her simple but clever designs. She has a clear understanding of what 'branding' means and executes this really well through repetition, typography and colour. The...
