Being the first day back from our week-long public holiday (I love China!), we definitely needed some colour in our day. ...and I certainly found it when I came across the rebranding of London-based design agency Dalziel&Pow. Their logo was first created 15 years ago and it was finally time for a fresh new look, so they made it all about bright colours, patterns, and expressive . . .
Triangular Entertainment
Triangles are synonymous with Toblerone when it comes to confectionery. Using the knowledge of this iconic shape, Artistic director Maxime Damo and copywriter Gilles André created a series of four prints using the headline “the main piece of your films”. Can you guess which movies these posters are portraying? [Answers in white, highlight for a sneak peek] - Titanic, Taxi . . .
Fruit Rainbows
Okay, who of you knew that bananas could ever look like this? I am a fan of the banana (no sexual innuendo intended) and have one for breakfast each day - and even I had not seen it in its full potential. Romanian artist Dan Cretu takes the ripe fruit and carves patterns through its skin, the paints them to give each one its one unique character and personality. . . .
Ping Pong Fun
I hate that the word 'Ping Pong' now reminds me of seedy bars in Thailand. Perceptions. Do not fear, there is nothing dodgy about this post...

(This might perhaps be due to the fact that I'm currently in a dark room with one solitary lamp on and the music blasting at 8:15pm, attempting to cross just one more thing off my to-do list at . . .
ABSOLUT’ly Open Canvas
ABSOLUT does not just create awesome ads: It also creates awesome campaigns. “Transform Today” happened in Williamsburg last weekend, turning an entire block of North 6th Street into an interactive display of some of New York's finest creative talent. Freshly painted white facades were reworked, grafitti artists gave live demonstrations in alleyways, and there was a display of storefront . . .
Hadouken Shots
I've come across a strange number of crazy posed photos this week, with quite a few following a particular theme... Creative agencies. I work in one and trust me when I say that at times, it is a crazy place. This is evident from the staff photos taken in several of them; white backgrounds and nice lighting is clearly no longer enough. Featuring some photoshop, props, staging and a sprinkle of . . .
