Here’s a nice little write up about the October Aiga/NY event (which I fucking missed) featuring Wim Crouwel and Massimo Vignelli. There’s also mini interview’s by both Wim and Massimo.
Murilo Parra Contro
Not really sure who created these, but this is a great set of posters. Seems like they were created for Murilo Parra Contro and there is a blog as well. Not sure if that’s a person or a company. If anyone can read Portugese please post some info on these designs, if you can find something.
Round
Here’s another great studio from down under. Round is based out of Melbourne and has produced a solid body of work. My personal favorite is the beautifully designed Sydney Design Guide, a guide for the design savy tourist. Even though I live worlds away from Sydney, I might purchase this book just for the aesthetic aspect of it.
A Smörgåsbord Of Typefaces
I’m not too fond of using more than one typeface in a design but there is something about this poster by Bruno Monguzzi that I love. You can check out more of Monguzzi’s work here and here.
Gary Hustwit Interview
Adrian Newell
Adrian sent in a link to his portfolio and I must say I’m impressed. He’s a recent graduate of University of Salford and he’s already producing high quality work. I never remember kids being this good when I was in school.
