Invasions 

In his ongoing project Paris-based artist Charles Pétillon invades cities and landscapes with various sizes of white balloons. Charles describes the project as a “Reference the “1000 pools” project by architect Bernard Schoeller that used everyday landscapes to widespread acclaim… He talks about decay and also nostalgia and fear when confronting the weariness that what was important yesterday is no longer of any consequence today.” 

Hidden Figures

Advertising agency DDB Germany has created a series of print ads for Stabilo highlighter literally highlighting women lost between the lines of history.

Smart. 

I once freelanced at a small design agency for a couple of weeks. Aside from the boss being awful, she was also adamant that she knew more about design than I did. The project was a range of packaging that had to be updated. Me: I’m sorry, but I can’t work with this Photoshop file. The artwork needs to be in multiple layers like the rest of the artwork I received. I’m afraid the previous agency must have flattened this one.

Client: Well that’s all they had, so you’re just going to have to unflatten it. Me: I can’t just unflatten the artwork. All those layers have been pressed into one and saved as one flat image. There’s no longer any memory of the artwork that’s hidden under the other visible layers. Client: Are you sure you’re a designer? There has to be a way to unflatten the artwork.

I tried my best to demonstrate what I meant using the old “object over a piece of paper” trick but she refused to even listen to me.

Client: I don’t care what you think you know. Somebody must have a program that can unflatten images. Call our printer and ask him.

Yes. She actually made me call our printing company to ask them for a program that could “unflatten flattened artwork,” standing over me while I did it. 

I was mortified.

Bold and Botanical

Bringing an extra dimension to decorative type, Julia Losfelt has produced this captivating a set of letters juxtaposing delicate and complex botanical structures with a stark, bold sans-serif. 

The soft lighting and meticulous composition of the plants and flowers makes each is joy to look at.

Chocolate Ampersands

I’m a total chocaholic, so this packaging design seems a fitting tribute to my addiction. This concept was inspired by my research into the Pouchée wood alphabets. The illustrated ampersands matched with flecked, textured paper aim to evoke an early Victorian packaging feel.

While creating the lettering for the brand ‘Albert & Rose’, I thought the lettering would make a fun, layered typeface. It will be available soon in Narrow (as shown) and Wide versions.

Time Type

Dehli based street artist, DAKU, has produced a dynamic, time sensitive, public art piece for the St+art Festival in India. Over two months 25 artist from around the globe will transform the colonial Lodhi district into the country’s first public art area.

Local artist, DAKU, who remains anonymous, has produced an inventive installation, ‘Time changes everything’, which connects type with the passing of time by using the moving sunlight to cast ever-changing shadows of words onto a wall. 

Over 70 words have been mounted perpendicularly to a building façade to act as sundials. The shadow type sharpens into focus in the mornings revealing english words such as; Identity, Religion, Perception. This shadows stretch and yaw across the façade to later fade away as the light dims in the afternoon.

Urban Camouflage 

Photographer Joseph Ford has collaborated with friend and knitter Nina Dodd over the past four years to create scenes that blend the models into their environments. Each subject wears a custom hand-knit sweater by Dodd that transforms their torso, partially camouflaging their body into a highly textured wall, striped running track, or for one pooch—the leaves of dense shrub.
