    Colosseo Letterpress Print

    An extraordinary poster by the ridiculously talented Cameron Moll, that took a year to make. An image of the Coliseum in Rome, Italy is formed using handcrafted characters from the Goudy Trajan and Bembo Pro typefaces.

    Each poster is printed on Somerset Velvet Black or Crane Lettra Pearl and letterpressed by Bjørn Press of Provo, Utah.

    I’m simply amazed but the level of detail and the quality of the piece, but what I’m truly impressed by is the dedication and commitment by Cameron to stick with it for an entire year. It was totally worth it.

    Dan Reisinger is an Israeli graphic designer who’s work includes posters, calendars, logos, corporate and environmental day. He’s probably most known for his work for EL AL Airlines, which includes a beautiful series of destination posters that were designed from 1968 – 72.

    I love his style and his work is probably the only example I’ve ever seen of good design that uses Hebrew letters.

    Reisinger also designed this lovely perpetual calendar for MoMA in 1987.

    Shepley Bulfinch Poster by Experimental Jetset

    March 5th, 2010

     

    I’ve been meaning to post about this for a month now and finally got around to doing it.

    Experimental Jetset recently designed this lovely poster, for architecture firm Shepley Bulfinch, announcing their 2010 fellowship. The design is based on the Roman numerals ‘MMX’ represented with geometric forms that relate back architecture. A brilliant piece.

    You can read more about the design process on Shepley Bulfinch’s blog and get a peak at an early sketch EJ did for the poster. It’s always interesting to see how a design evolves from a sketch to the final piece.

    10x10 Series by Method

    March 1st, 2010

     

    In celebration of their 10th anniversary, Method has released the 10x10 series, which will focus on game changing topics that will
    fundamentally impact today’s brands and their search for new revenue streams. The series includes essays, salons, and speaking engagements by industry leaders.

    The first issue of the series, “Cable’s Lost Generation”, takes a look at the future of television and digital communications. A downloadable PDF of this issue is available on the site.

    When my boss dropped a copy of the first issue on my desk a few weeks ago and I was immediately impressed by the stunning design. Well done in my book, but coming from Method, it’s expected.

    The fine folks at Grafik Magazine asked if I we’re interested in doing an interview for their blog about my blog. Since I’m so fond of their little magazine, I couldn’t say no. You can read the full interview on their site. Enjoy.

    Thinking for a Living Relaunches

    A new and improved site for Thinking for a Living has launched! The site, in my opinion, is at the forefront of interactive design. It’s a great example of why Flash isn’t the only means of creating a dynamic interactive experience.

    The site was designed by BBDK and Frank Chimero and built by Jedi Knight Ian Coyle. It features keyboard navigation, a fine grid, and a ton of original and inspirational content.

    I’m super excited and proud to be a part of this fine network of people and sites. TFAL is a must read for any creative type.

    Awesome new poster by data-viz king Peter Crnokrak titled Everyone Ever in the World. The poster is a visual representation of the number of people to have lived versus been killed in wars, massacres and genocide during the recorded history of humankind.

    Screen printed by K2 Screen using gloss transparent ink on 650mm X 920mm GFSmith Plasma Polycoat 700 micron Jet Black plastic.

    It was commissioned by, and available exclusively from Counter-Objects.

    Tom Balchin

    When I first saw Tom Balchin’s work, it blew my mind. This talented designer has a certain style that just seems perfect to me on every level. Tom uses only the minimum amount of elements and colors and organizes them on a solid grid. Perfect.

    Josef Albers Album Covers

    Josef Albers was an American artist and teacher widely known for his paintings and his book on color theory, but I personally love these album covers that he designed in the late 50’s and early 60s for Command Records. The covers were featured in an exhibition at Minus Space in Brooklyn, NY.
