AisleOne. A visual journal on design, photography, film, music and culture.
Stunning. This is a series of paper cutouts by Australian designer, Bianca Chang. The 3-dimensional letterforms are created with multiple sheets of 80gsm paper. These much be really amazing in person. The form must change depending on the angle of view.
Wonderful identity system by Henrik Wold Kraglund and Ludvig Bruneau Rossow for the Lavafilm film company.
The idea behind the identity:
The concept for Lavafilm’s identity is inspired by natural disasters, such as volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. During an earthquake, solid objects will divide and move to random positions. This has been the basis for the development of our solution.
I’m really impressed with the work of Swedish agency, Kurppa Hosk. The team is lead by Thomas Kurppa, Måns Jacobsson Hosk, and Andreas Pihlström (AKA Suprb). Spiffy little site too. I’m looking forward to the new work that’s going to come out of this place.
I’m super excited about this exclusive AisleOne feature. The fine folks at Process have released a special edition publication titled: Process 4.5.
Process 4.5 is the first in a series of special edition Process publications. Printed in only black on lightweight 70gsm Bond, Process 4.5 purposely contrasts the usual high production qualities of the quarterly journal, as well acting as a platform to experiment with different formats and production techniques. The publication’s content is a reflection and retrospective of the first four editions of Process Journal.
Consisting of three major parts, the first a comprehensive essay written by typographer and design-lecturer Brad Haylock. The second a typographic analysis of each of the typefaces featured in editions one to four, including type samples and specimens. And finally, a selection of contributors from editions one to four were asked a simple question: What is your process?. Including responses from Brett Phillips (3 Deep Design), Michael C. Place (Build), Mason Wells (Bibliothèque), Tom Crabtree (Manual),Tony Brook (Spin) and more..
