Photoshop...

People clearly hold way too much stock in Photoshop!

Viva Tomato...

I was taken to Pizza Express for lunch over the weekend. I noticed that they have redesigned their menus yet again! That said, i really like the illustration used on this little booklet. He is very endearing, and quite cool...

I just really like this...

Having done some work that intends to mimic real life products, this sort of thing always appeals to me. Plus Neasden Control Centre are just really cool...

Innocent Spam...

I received a link to this designers website in an email.
I really love the material she has used to produce these images; each one is based on the words from Spam email. Each one has a humorous take on the content of the email. Wouldn't it be nice if all Spam was this innocent...

Cork Books...

These were a series of books produced as part of the Book of 100 brief. I made the covers out of cork, and the pages inside concertina out. I've only just gotten around to photographing them for my portfolio presentation, but here they are!

Typography...

We were shown these interesting video/animations at the beginning of a typography based project. I really like the way the type moves within these animations, and think that producing something that is interesting, and yet informative, through this medium is really clever - wish i knew how to do it!

The things we make...

I came across this designer through the website ilovetypography.com
I really like a few pieces of his work. Especially the contrast with some of the posters he produced for The Body Shop.

I like the contrast between the hand drawn slightly comical images for the Hemp advert, and the crisp and professional tone of voice for the other posters. I like that the company have chosen to use the same designer for two very different pieces.

I also like this piece; a wedding invitation made for some friends of the designer. I like that it mimics a Mills and Boon book cover, it is very convincing!
