Research RCA Exhibition Catalogue
December 18th, 2009Peter of The Luxury of Protest has emailed me about this folded A3 catalogue he and Karin von Ompteda designed for the Royal College of Art. On one side the catalogue highlights seven students representing the seven different schools that comprise Research RCA department.
On the other, the entire student body is visually represent through an information visualization that shows the distribution of all Research students across departments. Each student was recorded with regard to school, department, degree type (MPhil or PhD), project type (Project or Thesis), status (Part or Full-Time), nationality and relationships to collaborators and funding agencies (arched connection lines).
Set in Akkurat and Didot and offset printed in single color (PMS Black) with yellow gold foil stamp on Arjo Wiggins Curious Metallics White Gold 120 gsm paper.
Gorgeous. Wouldn’t expect anything less from Peter.

David over at SeptemberIndustry spotted this gem on Experimental Jetset’s Myspace page. A gorgeous set of print work EJ did for an Heimo Zobernig exhibition in Bordeaux. The work includes an A2 folded to A5 Invitation, A4 Catalog and a massive poster.
I love how the minimal design really makes the poster stand out in a public environment. Exceptionally strong and stunning visual.

Povilas Utovka
July 27th, 2009Graphic designer Povilas Utovka has a small but excellent portfolio. Would love to see more work from this talent.
On a side note, I’ll be on vacation for the next two weeks so the posts might get a little sparse.

Typographic Posters
December 9th, 2008
Typographic Posters is an excellent site by Andre Felipe that catalogs only graphical or typographical quality poster designs. Any design can apply and then be given access to the site where they can upload their own work.
It’s already shaping up to be an excellent collection with amazing work. Some notable additions include This Studio, David Barath, Michele Genghi, Toko and yours truly.
The poster pictured above is one I’ve been working on but still need to finish.

80 20 100 Catalogue
November 18th, 2008Eye Magazine just posted some images of the Crouwel 80 20 100 exhibit catalogue designed by David Quay. Very nice indeed. I love how all the pages have a visible grid. One unfortunate thing about catalogue is that a good chunk of it is in black and white. Bummer.
You can download a PDF version of the catalogue to get a good look at it or you can order a copy for yourself and enjoy it in the comfort of your home.
The Vivid Gallery site has a small photo gallery of the event. I wish I were able to attend. Did anyone get to go? How was it?

The 19th International Poster and Graphic Festival of Chaumont is paying tribute to one of my favorite inspirations of all time, Josef Müller-Brockmann. To accompany the festival this 288 page catalogue was designed by Wijntje Van Rooijen & Pierre Péronnet and features a section on the legendary Brockmann.
You can grab a copy over at YWFT and also check out this small Flickr gallery of the festival.
