this might be it and the ideas berg/bonnier showcases are interesting but the execution is a bit clunky. well, that’s the easiest thing to fix i guess.

really like the work done by fabien baron from baron & baron in new york. some of the work on his website is now almost a bit outdated but most stuff is pretty timeless and i like it as much now as when i saw it for the first time a few years back.

it seems like this decade will be visually recognized for a mix of illustrative fantastic hyper realism computer illustration. there is a whole generation of 20-somethings that illustrates the hell out of their computers. a lot of them fall into the same sort of style bucket. heiko klug’s work sticks out a bit and is quite interesting. check out his portfolio jesar-one.com
audi d7 concept, dream to reality
Posted on | May 3, 2009 | 1 Comment
interesting audi concept done by young iranian designer kave naser bakht. the D7 is a super sports concept car with an electric engine in front. among the features areare the charging crack on the nose and light belts around the car which integrate the headlights and taillights while forming the shape typical of audi’s head lamps and grilles, thus making the car easily recognizable at night.

nice series of ad visuals for an illustration studio. although on the first look i thought it is an ad about something environmental. in any case they are interesting visuals.
wow, what a spectacular failure

check out peter arnell explaining the new tropicana rebranding/packaging that has been taken back to the old version. although i have to say, i quite liked the new packaging and look. and now that the new ones are taken off the market they might become collectables.

freedom and partners has a quite interesting website. you can spin the site content at any given point around x and y axis. of course not only their own website is pretty fxxxxx cool but they also have a lot high profile clients such as crispin porter or adobe for example.

louis vuitton gets designed QR code
Posted on | April 17, 2009 | 3 Comments
tokyo based creative agency SET is specialized in marketing solutions that combine design and technology. for louis vuitton SET designed a QR (quick response) code. QR Codes are the bar codes of the future, linking online and physical graphics to websites and multi-media.
the QR code is an extension of the continuing partnership between louis vuitton and famed japanese animator takashi murakami who in 2008 made time magazine’s “100 most influential people” list.
the QR code is meant to generate traffic to the louis vuitton mobile website, create buzz (like here), demonstrate the possibilities of designer QR codes and raise awareness of the potential role of QR codes in marketing.
since i got a lot of reader feedback that the code doesn’t work i want to add the following statement from set.
“the LV QR code was meant for domestic use only. consequently in the testing of the code we conducted trials using handsets from the three phone companies, au, docomo and softbank.
we literally did not have the time to test it using phones used overseas and there really didn’t seem to be too much point. japanese phones are equipped with higher grade lenses and upgraded software to deal with issues such as macro settings etc. this account for some of the reading issues abroad.”
would call this QR code from BBC software engineer duncan robertson an early attempt to design a QR code by incorporating the BBC logo. due to an error margin of 30% while still being readable this was possible.

fun. the guys from spamshirt.com (as they claim) clean up the online environment by putting spam subject lines on t-shirts and making actually use of all the rubbish floating around out there.
