The Mangle Badge Show - Limited edition set of badges

I really like the format of these limeted edition badges designed by New Future Graphic. I like the way the underlying image relates to the images on the badge faces, it is a really simple yet nice touch and shows the company's attention to detail

Seripop

This is a poster from the two person design company Seripop. I really like the hand-rendered typography and think it really works with the image of the cathedral.

New Future Graphic



These images are from a GQ fashion spread. The photographs were supplied by GQ but New Future Graphic did the rest. I really like the 'scrapbook' look that has been achieved where images look as if they have been taped on, it delivers personality to the spread and enhances the concept present in the photography.

Sarah King... continued.




Here is another exampleof some of Sarah King's work with illustration and scanned images. These three images were produced as invitations to The School of Historical and Critical Studies' Degree show.

I really like King's use of the basic typographic shapes but then turning it on its head by only filling the elements in part creating unusual geometric shapes that the eye then interprets as the letter in the searh of meaning.

Sarah King of Evening Tweed


I was browsing the Evening Tweed website when I found this image called 'Scanned and illustrated hands' by Sarah King. I really love the combination of illustration with actual hands, it is not too subtle but creates a really beautiful image.

Stranger Than Fiction (2006) Opening Sequence



This is quite possibly the best introduction to a character I have ever seen in a film. The use of motion tracked graphics (by Design company MK12) gives you an insight into the the mathmatical and clinical life of Harold.

The tracking for the motion is brilliant and the lighting really makes the motion seem as if it is in the live footage. The motion acts as a visual of Harolds thoughts and are a collection of numbers, diagrams and graphs.

I was wondering if anyone knew of any traking programs that this effect could have been achieved on?

BAU-DA DESIGN LAB


www.bauda.com

After looking at the Audioslave video I discovered designer P.R. Brown and his company Bau-Da Design lab. The website is definately worth a look. It is really simple but the hand-rendered site really works and gives you an insight into the way the company may work.

I also had a look at some of the Graphic Design they had to offer and I found a book cover for Dita Von Teese's book.
Because the book is in two parts Bau-da have utilized both the conventional front and back cover to create two front covers (so when the book is turned over it reveals the other cover).

The thing I like about the cover is its use of photography and composition to almost suggest a split personality. The colour schemes used on the respective covers have been carefully chosen. The Burlesque photograph portrays 'candy' colours that suggest a playfulness and an innocence whereas the Fetish cover portays a much darker scene
