The 19th International Poster and Graphic Festival of Chaumont is paying tribute to one of my favorite inspirations of all time, Josef Müller-Brockmann. To accompany the festival this 288 page catalogue was designed by Wijntje Van Rooijen & Pierre Péronnet and features a section on the legendary Brockmann.

You can grab a copy over at YWFT and also check out this small Flickr gallery of the festival.

Calendreco

Posted on October 27, 2008October 27, 2008 Posted in Design, MerchTagged calendar, environment, graphic design

Calendreco is an eco friendly perpetual wall calendar designed by Dessi Ivanova. The calendar is composed of one oversized board with the month’s numbers (1 – 31) and three additional headers with different weekday combinations. Depending on the month, the corresponding header is placed in front of the board to indicate the date. With one simple adjustment every month, the calendar can be used year after year.

Calendreco is printed on a premium brilliant white, double – thick, alkaline pH cover paper, buffered for longevity. It is made with responsibly sourced pulps, 100% renewable electrical energy, and clean water. Manufactured carbon neutral and chlorine free, this paper is one of the most chemical – free papers available today. The inks are non-toxic and vegetable-based. Finally, the calendar is 100% recyclable.

Jaw dropping work coming out of UK based studio Mytton Williams. I absolutely love the work they did for Mivart Studios.
