AisleOne. A visual journal on design, photography, film, music and culture.
I agree with Shelby, I’d pay good money to get my hands on these Ducats milk cartons designed by Heinz Grunwald in the 80s. They’re beautiful and functional. These are also a reminder of how bad design can get nowadays. It’s our responsibility as designers to push graphic design back to this type of thinking. Simple, smart, beautiful.
Nice cover for The General Fireproofing Company annual report designed by Chermayeff & Geismar in 1969.
Some nice work by Ross Gunter. I really love his poster designs for Bridging the Gap.
Some people don’t like this super minimal approach to design, but I personally love it. Great work here by Italian designer, Filippo Nostri.
Excellent work by UK designer, Tim Wan. Amazing how good the work is considering that he recently graduated.
Here’s a great little project by the talented Craig Oldham. Hand Written Letter Project was started in 2007, and is a collection of hand written letters by some well-regarded designers on their own stationery. Some of the invited designers include Michael Bierut, Steven Heller, Tony Brook, Milton Glaser, and my favorite of the collection, Wim Crouwel.
The collection will be released in a limited edition book that will accompany a traveling exhibition, both of which will be raising funds for the National Literacy Trust.
Great idea and cause.
