José Augusto Hykavy really went above and beyond with his personal brand redesign. The colors for me are simply fantastic. His goal behind this project was to not be just a symbol or monogram, but a complete and striking identity that could be recognized and applied anywhere.
Sabbath Studio is a branding studio based Monterrey, Mexico. They shared a branding project wholly inspired by Dystopian Futures, Cyberpunk, Sci-fi / Neo-noir Cult Films & Anime themed aesthetics by client request. Let's just mention that again: 'by client request'.
Neumorphism or shall we say Skeuomorphism is a hot topic in UI trends. For the past months we have been talking, debating, and even more since the release announcement of the macOS Big Sur coming this fall. Why? Because it's cool! One thing, I do like about this 'style' is the craft that goes into an icon design.
Bullpen, an independent creative studio based in NYC creating engaging content through design & animation, shared an awesome motion design project with us. Fun & Games, is a tongue in cheek look at the games we design and give our children. It's all fun & games. Until it isn't.

Germán Reina Carmona shared a super stylish set of illustrations titled Ipad Comics. There is not much information about it but I really like them. From the colors to the themes. It mixes cartoon style illustrations but with a more textured look (for lack of better word).
I love side-projects, I particularly comprehend the personal explorations that one can do to pursue to learn new things, explore new mediums or just to perfect your craft. It's not always easy with keeping a schedule, living a pandemic, going through phases of life and etc... We will always have a place for 'personal explorations' on abdz.
Nicolas Lichtle, a senior motion designer, I work in the fields of museography, documentary and animated typography at studio Mada Mada, started this film a year ago.It's not a commissioned work, it's neither fiction nor animation, the graphic style is rather singular.
Los Angeles is the opposite of our old metropolises. The sprawling multi-dimensionality is alien, and for many, gets on our nerves: the tangled network of highways and the constant driving around, the emphasized nonchalance and never ending optimism of everyone, the sunny weather, the ingenious modernist architecture, the film industry, the tourists and the shitty art museums ...
One of our most popular series is back. The Wallpaper of the Week is happening again due to the incredible demand and pressure from myself and Francois hah! Jokes aside.

Flowers are always beautiful from bud to withered. Intending to show off the beauty of flowers, this flower vase was conceived, not any flower vase, but an elegant example of great industrial design. The author is Shinya Oguhi, an award winner industrial designer based in Tokyo, Japan.
In a museum, a woman looking at a Fork exhibited as a piece of Art let her imagination run wild. The film is a surreal journey interrogating our perception of objects. What happens when you take an object from daily life and move it outside of its original context? What is left of an object when it loses its function? An abstract shape, a sculpture?
