As of late, I have been freelancing back to my roots with branding, and building a visual system for a client. It's been such a long time ever since my graphic days and most of us have switched to 'product design'. I was stumbling across the work of the fine folks at Bunker3022., a branding & designs studio based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Ben Fearnley shared a series of, as he says, very satisfying loops created using Cinema 4D and Octane Render. As a fan of 3D and trying to learn a bit more in my spare time, this type of work definitely gives me the boost of motivation to keep going.
Juliana Christmann and Moritz Büsselberg shared an awesome editorial design project featuring magazine spreads very well designed using a classic grid system. I mentioned before and I will keep saying it, this type of work for me is what inspires me the most.
This is the best opportunity to share some colours into your feed. Nothing to bring joy and inspiration than the work of Maxim Shkret with our constant admiration of his 3D animal series. Maxim is a digital artist that is super-talented and it's always refreshing.
Mateusz Urbanowicz is back with more of his Tokyo Storefonts, a series of illustrations that would imagine a creative and unique shops on the streets of Tokyo.
Lewi Yonas shared an inspiring editorial design project for Cozy Vol. 2 Cozy is a personal project that was born out of quarantine restlessness - described by Lewi. As a fan of editorial design I always admire the amount of work it goes through designing a publication.
Beco Creative Studio shared the branding and visual identity that they created for their own studio. They are a multidisciplinary design studio doing all things creative. It was founded by Beatriz Ramos and Constanca Soromenho in Lisbon, Portugal. It’s worth highlighting the materials and color treatment.
'OCEAN BLUES' is a fine art photography series by visual artist and landscape photographer Jan Erik Waider. All photos were taken during calm days on the Drake Passage on a voyage with the sailing ship Bark Europa from the Antarctic Peninsula back to Ushuaia.
In contrast to the strict and somewhat restrained Swiss Style of the 1960s, Büro Destruct stands for design without the handbrake on. Apparently everything is possible. It can be humorous, loud, colorful and zeitgeisty. At the same time, minimalism, precision and craftsmanship are present in all their work.
Yuklung Young shared a quite beautiful 3D project using Maxon Cinema 4D and Octane Render. The idea was quite simple but the execution was flawless. Basically it’s a set of explorations of glass refraction of basic forms (circles and squares) in primary colors. For some reason I love this type of experimentation and especially how it looks.
Manifiesto shared a branding and visual identity for Fonima. Fonima seeks to dissolve the line between visuals and sound through rhythm, time and silence. The festival connects the audience through sensory experiences in an audiovisual concert that brings together musicians, animators and VJs in a live session of visual and musical improvisation.
Ana Gomez Bernaus is an art director based in Los Angeles, CA, USA. She shared her series titled 'Digital Paint' which is a series of 3D experiments on how the paint will look through transparency and reflection. The results are completely stunning, it truly feels like when you were a kid exploring the real world through the prism shape.
Val Nogues / Wide Vision Agency shared a branding, packaging design and visual identity project for JNS Coffee. Specialty coffees have made their way to the Polish market, and are here to stay. Jawa Nie Sen is a new brand offering farmers coffee for those who care about quality.
Juri Friedlein shared a beautiful 3D project where the goal was to create 3D illustrations of Juri’s favorite and most used fonts. The result is a quite beautiful set of monochrome compositions highlighting Bodoni, Futura and Helvetica. The best part of the whole thing is that it was done using my favorite 3D tool, Blender 3D :)
Gabriel Dzieslaw shared one of those branding and visual identity projects that made me jealous because of how awesome it is. It was created for Favilla Studio, a Danish design company exploring sustainable and unique solutions. It has distinguished itself by a playful approach and use of exclusive upcycled materials.
How you feel about the longevity of NFTs? Most of our social feeds have been since submerged with so many digital works that it's getting hard to keep track of it all. Most of them are honestly brilliant, stunning, meaningful, and some others...well, that's why we are here!
We are all familiar with the “36 days of type” typography challenge we always feature some of the entries that really get our attention and despite the willingness to post all of them, it’s quite hard to keep track of the amazing work people share.
vijay verma is a designer working at Zomato, he created this very cool illustration of the character named Luca (obviously!) from the Pixar's Luca movie that was recently released on Disney+.
The end of the week is already here, how was yours? I wanted to share this colorful illustration series by Carlotta Notaro, it's the perfect occasion for the season and I just love the style surrounding these illustrations. It's always insightful getting a peek into someone's favorite food and in this case 'Italian Food'!
Estudio Rebu shared a beautiful branding and visual identity project for Inter, one of Brazil’s dearest fintechs with millions of users. It’s kind of a hype really. But they needed a fresher brand strategy, voice & expression. We came up with a full guideline for inter: personality, values, purpose, blablabla.
