Richard Mosse

Thu, 24 Nov 2011 15:29:24 +0000

I came across Richard's work about a month or two ago while visiting Dublin Contemporary's exhibition in Dublin. His work blew me away. I then forgot about it until stumbling upon it today. I simply must have one of his prints on my walls! For the full shebang: http://richardmosse.com/

Steve Doogan

Wed, 11 May 2011 16:27:51 +0100

I came across this Irish illustrator not so long ago, while looking through this years ICAD (Institute of Creative Advertising and Design) annual. Steves work features heavily throughout.
The man has bags of talent, there's no way of getting around this fact. As I looked thorugh his site for the first time, what surprised me the most was the fact ... More >>

Limited Edition Shizz

Well there hasn't been much of a squeek out of me in the last ages, I am fully aware of this fact. Foot to the floor, that is what has been going on in the studio these days. Not that I'm complaining at all! I have been loving it. Lots of interesting projects on the go.

Always With Honor

Mon, 14 Mar 2011 20:05:08 +0000

Came across this cracking studio while having a goo through the popular CMS website: Cargo.
Always With Honor, what a great name for a studio. The work they produce certainly stays true to it. I have to say, I'm really fond of this illustrative style. Flat, clean, tasty vectors. It's amazing to think its the work of three different ... More >>

This post is dedicated to two great type resourses / sites I came across in the last while.
http://fontsinuse.com/
Does exactly what it says on the tin. A multitude of examples of fonts in use. Great for inspiration.

A site that showcases vernacular type from around the globe.

Olly Moss

Wed, 2 Mar 2011 10:40:15 +0000

Heralding from the UK, Olly is probably best known for his iconic and memorable film posters. His series of black and red posters were a massive hit a few years ago when they first came out. Itching to get this man on board for a project of some description in the future.

Everything in its right place

Tue, 1 Mar 2011 17:16:44 +0000

No, this isn't in any way related to the Radiohead track. It is a refering to Tod McLellan’s painstaking photographic pieces. Fair play Todd, you have the patience of a saint!

I've included a few other examples from some of his other projects, hmmmm, it appears that he's not a one trick pony. Dang! The Black and white ... More >>

Picture perfect

Mon, 10 Jan 2011 13:55:46 +0000

I have to admit that I have a serious fascination with certain antique objects. I collect a few on a small scale. Cameras, clocks, old signage and paper weights are the main contenders. Luckily this fascination has made its way into a project I am currently working on. An identity for a good mate of mine who is a videographer ... More >>

Andy the Man-with a brain of-gold

Wed, 5 Jan 2011 18:02:21 +0000

It seem like everything Andy Mangold comes up with is pure gold. I've been looking through his site and I really cant fault a single project. Smart, original, fresh ideas all produced exceptionally well. He reminds me a little of Alan Fletcher’s approach to design. Well considered work that can be appreciated by the masses, not only designers! A veign ... More >>

Beauty is simplicity

Unit Editions, is an English publishing house I have mentioned on this blog before (Supergraphics post). I had a gander for them on Flickr last week and a few really interesting results popped up. A ridiculous amount in fact! Check: http://www.flickr.com/photos/uniteditions/ and you'll have an idea of what I'm on about. Lots of creative brain feed there.

Roid MSK

Fri, 19 Nov 2010 16:51:37 +0000

Well, while I'm on a MSK crew roll I may as well put up my most favoured writer of the crew. Killer colour combos, a completely bonkers style of letters re. their composition and balance. This man never ceases to inspire. I can def hold my hands up guilty as charged when I look at how he has influenced some ... More >>

Pose MSK

I havent put a graffiti post up here in a good while. MSK is an international graffiti crew, probably THE flavour of 2009 and 2010 worldwide and so well they might be. The lads that rep it all bring bags of talent to the table. One of the painters that I hold in very high regard is Pose. Not only ... More >>

Supergraphics

Wed, 3 Nov 2010 08:32:35 +0000

Supergraphics!!? What the fook? Is this yet another designer-wanky term?
Yep, that's exactly what I thought when I heard it first.
Well, I was showing my ignorance and it has been around for quite some time, since the 60s in fact. Its definition is actually a very straight forward and simple one: very large, usually brightly colored, graphic ... More >>

Herb dont come cheap

Tue, 26 Oct 2010 18:14:42 +0100

I was looking for Herb Loobalin’s recently, my studio mate Rob has a copy. It is something else, page after page of impressive typography and illustration. Right up my street.
So, I decided I wanted a copy of my own, I looked online and to my shock and dismay, it cost $140 on Amazon. Faaaak that for a lark. Silly ... More >>

Never judge a book...

Fri, 22 Oct 2010 20:12:17 +0100

Came across this treasure trove of book cover designs all on one site. I've only had a quick mooch through it so far, but there's bloody heaps to get inspiration from. Very comprehensive catagories to choose what angle you'd like to navigate through all the information on the site too. Two thumbs up.
