bulgaria’s best kept secret #3

He was an author of numerous covers of books with folklore fairytales, posters, trade marks, postcards, advertisements, forms and envelopes, post stamps, labels, packages and etc. His works are imaginative, with calm and clear composition, felicitous relation between fonts and shapes, clear forms and creative ideas. He got his inspiration from the Bulgarian folklore and traditions. Kanchev?s great artistry was also seen in his colour works.

and here my final selection of work from the oeuvre of stefan kantchev (see previous posts)

60 years of marketing evolution

this antique lemonade bottle from my home town of bristol in the UK , which i was given this week, illustrates nicely what 60 years of evolution in design and marketing have done to the products we consume… i’ll leave it to you to decide whether this evolution is a good or a bad thing…

bulgaria’s best kept secret #2

?… These stamps are brand new, contemporary but without being modish. A stamp has to have the qualities of the plastic art which will guarantee that it will stand the changes in trends during the years without getting outdated. Any of these stamps can be enlarged to impressive size, can be reduced to miniature but the stamp will not loose its clearness or its plastic beauty.?

here is some more work, this time my own selection of stamps from stefan kantchev (see earlier post)
