AisleOne. A visual journal on design, photography, film, music and culture.
A contributor to the excellent blog FormFiftyFive, Glasgow based designer Ed Watt has compiled an excellent portfolio filled with quality stuff.
I personally love the flyer pictured above made for the Maryhill Youth Theatre to promote one of their productions. Gorgeous. I also love Ed’s griddy site design.
Over at the blog We Made This, there’s a scan of an article in a 1975 issue of Design Magazine that covers the construction and guidelines for the 1976 Montreal Olympics Logo designed by Georges Huel. It’s interesting to see how the logo was developed over a grid system.
The logo represents a podium, a running track, the letter M and the olympic rings. Simple and brilliant. I personally prefer this mark over the one created by Otl Aicher for the 1972 Olympics.
Bristol based form Thirteen has compiled a superb portfolio filled with work that will get your design juices flowing. Each piece is precisely designed and extremely inspirational.
Jonathan Quainton of Sawdust contacted me about their work and I quite impressed by it. They’re a London based firm that specializes in print design,
corporate identity and branding.
I’m personally drooling over this printed material pictured above promoting a bar in London.
An excellent range of work by San Francisco firm studio1500, formed by ex-Pentagram designers Erick Schmitt and Julio Martinez.
