podium

some of the printed matter for the podium identity we made during the summer is starting to arrive back… the results look very promising so far, i’ll post the whole set when everything is complete later this autumn… the final part of the project is a new websie which we are due to start working on right now

the scale of things

…we are all guilty,… it is about consumerism…

the premsela institute has posted a summarised version of the talk (which i missed) given by UK designer ‘angus hyland’ in amsterdam last week, it is also available (in it’s entirety) as a podcast download via itunes, alas it is a rather disjointed and not very interesting / challenging or revealing hour-long talk i have to say… having just patiently listened to the whole thing

desert island discs

the BBC radio show ‘desert island discs’ is something of an institute in the UK, celebrities are interviewed and asked to share the ten records they would take with them if they had to live alone on a desert island… this week i came across the revamped logo for the program, which is really quite good in my opinion, a classical logo that says what it is about… simple

it was done in-house by the BBC design team and you can read some more about the development here
