Tord Boontje:
I really like the packaging of this box, and with the 3D pattern that is wrapped round the box, it makes it much more interesting.
Oki Nami:
These origami animals are really sweet and makes the whole scene look very gentle and relaxing. The colours the designer has used are amazing and I think they work really well together.
I really like how they have laid out this information, and with it in just black and white, its very bold and attracts the eye. It would be interesting to see what it would look like in another colour, would it still have the same boldness.. or even change it to a negative.
Frieze Art Fair: (GTF)
The bird really stands out in the flowers, it's really unusual, so that would convey 'art' possibly.. audience would be arty people.
Victoria and Albert Museum: the mirror mirror ( GTF)
Silhouettes of hand-mirrors, really interesting composition and i really like the simplified images, and you can still see what they are meant to be.
Jesse Lindhorst: screen prints
I really like these screen prints.. With the little details, such as build up of colour andthe illustrated vegetables. Each say the word 'hi' but because of the shape of the veg, the letters are very different from one another.
Megan Hyland:
Sometimes quite difficult to read, with the white background and white type with small amount of colour that slightly shows what the letter is.
I really like how they are laid out and the long layout.
Joanne Kwok:
Psyche typeface, these are promotional products that have the type face on them. Looks like it may target an older audience.. for the kitchen.. relaxing
John Christenson:
I love these wooden, letter puzzles, that create names, in all different ways. They have been placed on top of each other, and not just side by side, fitting together.
They really grab my attention, and I think in all different scales, they would be good to look at.. whether it be small, so the audience could interact with them, at a much larger scale where they are only meant to be looked at.
This illustrative piece is really beautiful. I like the fine detail in the girls hair, which is also making out a sentence. The watercolour finish makes it look very fragile and 'girly.'
I would think the audience of this piece would be quite young perhaps.
Christine Tran:
Old fashioned and very clean. Would look really good on a larger scale.
Rishi Sodha:
Really good use of type. Using bright bold colour, which grabs the attention of the reader as soon as they open the pack up. It makes you want to read what it says.
Jackson Cook:
Produced a fancy typographic book, along with packaging, and this belly band.. Shows a sneak preview almost, of some type that would be seen inside.
Elegant and vintage looking.
Fakie:
I really like how the designer has made the letters very abstract and 3D, in many different ways.
Also, the writing makes up an afro type image.. By including the sunglasses, it makes up the image better.
Matthew Duerkson:
The wedding invitations have been produced by letterpress, which automatically gives them a 'home made' feeling, as well as a different, and better quality to them.
These would be received by the guests, perhaps all ages, and I think that the use of 'random' typography for words makes the invitation quite unique and makes the reader look more into the product/letter. No matter what the age.
The way these words have been set out have been placed there on purpose by the designer.
I like how simple it is, with 'old fashioned' type.. it looks as if its come from one of the 10 commandments- ancient.. some kind of demand.
Steeve Gouyer:
Produced these letters out of lollys. Though some letters are quite difficult to make out, and look similar to other letters, I think it is a really interesting idea.
The black background makes the yellow and pink letters stand out alot, as if they are glowing, compared to if it was on a white background.
