Officiall Classic

Hungary based design studio, they have got some seriously dark type shit goin on! Il be posting more work from them in the not too distant future but I came across a couple of poster designs from them that really relate to the coverwrap work Im starting to work on...



Beautiful, a load of type splashed over a page. Really like this style of work, collage with sick type designs, type as image I guess. It may very well just be pretty and nothing more, but by jove is it appealing to me!

More Spanish Design

Another music based spanish publication i came across, can't recall where I got it from, another 'save image' done job.

Bit more of a formal look than the other editorials I've talked about. Not keen on the covers, makes them look quite dull and boring, average use of pastel colours I reckon. But the use of type on the double page spreads and posters is pot on for me. Again a strong relationship between the type and image, even and complimenting. Why don't the covers look like the posters!?

Stumbled across these, completely forgot the information on the designer and what not, but still. Referencing this to my second brief, the type used for the branding is beautiful and is the kind of style i wanted to achieve for some of my logos for the artists on the label.

It's nice to see this style of type in some form of context as it's not often that you'll see it.

We Work For knowledge

Portuguese design studio, this project being for a cultural exhibition where they were asked to produce the flyer, catalogue and signage.

The end result I feel is a very strong body of work. A design that works across a range of formats, being effective across them all.

When done well, as it is here, using just one colour looks sick, simple effective and low cost. Which I imagine was an issue with this brief, the budget wouldn't have been huge.

Patricio Murphy

Argentinian designer, came across this really interesting and vibrant bit of print. At first I had no idea what is was, other than some fold out flyer or info brochure. What it actually is, is a festival programme and poster design.

Firstly it very much suits the subject of synth pop, bright and vibrant colours, bit trippy and indie. Defiantly fits in with the life of a dickhead. Saying that I do actually like it. Looks very different to any festival publications I've seen before and obviously its been made by a designer for designers (in my opinion) Whether the information is clear and easy to follow which a programme should be I don't know. Nonetheless I think its always good to see something new and interesting.
