bijna klaar! de huisstijl voor tear (voorheen tear fund). tear (fund) is een christelijke organisatie die zich richt op armoede-bestrijding en streeft naar rechtvaardige verhoudingen in de wereld. binnenkort dus meer over de huisstijl en het magazine dat wij voor ze aan het ontwikkelen zijn in me work.
erik and I spent the morning at the ‘muziektheater’ arranging the ballet posters for the exhibition, we left before it was all ready so it’s back tomorrow to see how it looks…
it’s always difficult to stand back and see your work as if you’ve never seen it before, but still it’s fun to see it all together on that nice big (and very red) wall
designers always have a tendency to get watery-eyed and nostalgic about old logos… however this latest creation from the fusion of TPG Post & TNT is just plain confusing, the old logos weren’t exactly inspiring for a start:
but the final result (or is it just an interim version?) is just odd, what does it all mean? I wonder
on the way to a client this week, we came across this very old logo (still in use) for a very old dutch removals firm, but we didn’t entirely agree: erik thinks it’s ok & I think it’s fantastic, it dates from a time when basic geomteric shapes were ‘de rigeur’ and it says what it needs to say, I believe actually that it was designed by the dutch master Piet Zwart in the 1930’s
the version I found on their website (see insert) is actually better than the sign on their building: the D is closer and forms a better arrow shape… (if anyone can actually confirm who designed it, please mail me, see our e-mail address to the left)
