ASHA enters projects for the Graphis Annual 6

A branding project that I have worked on at ASHA is being entered for the Graphis Annual 6. The project consisted of a global rebrand for WWF (The World Wildlife Foundation) in helping it have a consistent face across the world. 


The famous panda has been set free, consistent use of photography, information graphics and flagship publications have all helped in giving them a strong and credible identity. 

The entry on the Graphis website can be seen here and also we have got another project entered for Judes' Ice Cream which can be seen here. Enjoy! 

Drew Struzan Movie Posters

Original illustrations for some cult movies. All way out of a price range that I could only ever dream of spending, but there's nothing wrong with looking. Some of my faves are below. Anyone fancy lending me $450,000?

My new favourite blog - Designspiration

Very cool, literally just start typing what you want to look at and it finds it. I'm a little bit obsessed with hand drawn, retro type at the moment. The website is http://designspiration.net/. 


Here are my faves, with probably more to follow: 

Quoteskine

One of the first blogs that I started following. Quotes drawn in a Moleskine, pretty straightforward really but I love them. 

Here are some of my favourite posts, the blog is created by Lee Crutchley and can be found here. 

I've always wanted to do something like this myself but never got round to it. I literally have pages and pages of quotes that I would love to visualise. 

I need to get my arse into gear. 

Cardiff After Dark

After helping out on a photography course as part of my job, my eyes have really been opened to photography and how light and persepectives can really make the ugly beautiful, the boring intriguing and the dull vibrant. 


Whilst mooching around on the internet I came across "Cardiff After Dark" by photographer Maciej Dakowicz. A style and view of photography really reminded me of Martin Parr, whose work I had also been introduced to on the course that I helped out on. The title pretty much says it all, but the photography is amazing. It's a mixture of voyeurism, intrigue and the cringeworthy. And sums the aftermath of a night fuelled with drink mixed with people who don't know when to stop and have no shame after midnight.
