Dieter Rams

While browsing through Dieter Rams incredible work that he designed for Braun I came across a couple of great black and white layouts that immediately caught my eye. I love that the photo is the hero, glorifying certain aspects of the product in the shot. Great typography.

The Last Mix Tape

You gotto to love the way these storyboards have been designed. I really love the NFL clash with the universe/galaxy elements. It's like the birth of a star or watching a nebula forming. The Last Mix Tape.

Sony Style

I love this Sony Camcorder design. Black exterior with hard angles and lines. Sony Style.

Adrian Tomine

I spotted Adrian Tomines work at Giant Robot (GO THERE!) in NY and immediately loved the clean line of his portraits. He has a showcase of his work in his portfolio, here. Be sure to check out his comic books.

Monocle

Ok Im sure you all have one of those magazines that when the next issue comes out you cant seem to put it down until it is dog eared and read cover to cover twice. Monocle magazine by Tyler Brulé. I love it so much and the best thing is we have a subscription here at work so I get to read it as soon as it is in our post box! Go buy it you won't be disappointed.

Sleeveface

This is really good for a laugh, these creative record lovers have taken some great photos of themselves and some of their records. Sleeveface. via Pret A Voyager (V.Good Blog)

Superhotjoy!

By far my favourite Durban/South African band is Superhotjoy. Garret the lead singer used to come by ITI and sell us these gourmet sandwiches to fund his music. Besides the amazing sandwiches we used to devour, the bands CD cover design has to be put into my top 5 CD designs of all time. It was shot in the Durban Museum, an old relic filled with stuffed animals that leave you feeling slightly haunted. Of course it was done by Disturbance Design...of course.

Visi Magazine Pt. 2

I am loving this "red" cover for the holiday issue of Visi magazine. If you ever want good insight to trends and South African design, this is the magazine to read! Available in English and Afrikaans. (Maybe it should be published in one of our other local languages too?) It would have been great if they could have hooked up with the (RED) campaign and donated part of their sales to help combat HIV/Aids in SA...Im full of ideas today, haha! OH! And the cover is Scratch n Sniff! Good idea!

Matthew Hilton

I was amazed by this Dining Chair produced by designer Matthew Hilton. I spent some time going through his site and I came across his "Inspiration" section. It is such a personal fresh touch to the site, I just had to post the pictures. Enjoy.
