AisleOne. A visual journal on design, photography, film, music and culture.
A simple site that takes you through a brief history of the world’s largest design firm, Unimark International. Founded by Ralph Eckerstrom and Massimo Vignelli, Unimark only lasted 13 years but some of the most famous corporate identities were born behind its doors. My favorite is the work done for Memorex.
Daniel Camacho has written in about a poster exhibition held by the London
College of Communication. The exhibition displays 30 A1 posters produced by 30 creative individuals throughout Europe, each offering their own interpretation of a day in June. If you’re in the area definitely stop by because this sounds like it’s going to be good. I wish exhibits like this were held in NYC.

A nice collection of gig posters that were recently added to my International Typographic Style flickr group. Design by Pinch, the layout system allows a poster to be created in less than 30 minutes. I wonder if a grid system was used to create the layout.
I need to unwind and the 4th of July weekend seems like the perfect time. So I’ll be MIA the next few days, probably laying in a pool and eating BBQ, but no worries, I’ll be back first thing Monday morning with some nice goodies.
I want to wish all the US readers out there a safe and happy 4th of July. Enjoy.
I found this MASSIVE collection of Jazz record covers so big that I didn’t have enough time to go through it all. But the stuff that I did see is absolutely amazing. There are even hi-res versions of each cover.
Brilliant work by french designer Caroline Fabès.
