  • Semi-Permanent 2012.

    Our team attended Semi Permanent last week. In it's own words "Semi-Permanent is a world leading design conference that to date has hosted 29 events in 9 cities, covering 5 countries, with over 200 speakers and 50,000 attendees. In 2012, Semi-Permanent celebrates ten years of events- that's a decade full of stories and wisdom from industry idols." I thought I'd share my highlights...

  • We love - Paris vs New York.

    It's amazing how much you can communicate with so little! Each illustration in this series by Vahram Muratyan captures both cities (Paris and New York), highlights how they contrast and makes you smile at the same time. The combination of the simplicity plus humour is what makes them so effective. It's not surprising that what started out as a blog has evolved into a book and series of prints.

  • We love - the reinvention of the book.

    Printing of the written word is being reinvented in awesome ways! I can't take credit for this find and have to name-check Springwise, a site filled with awesome ideas from around the world. As with the web, it's all about usability, a song book that you can recycle for rollies while you listen to the music and written recipes that you can actually then use in the cooking (OK so you've then lost the recipe but it's something different and I want to try it!). Yes please.

  • We love - how a little thought can go a long way.

    Check out these amazing images for Stiftung Berliner Philharmoniker. They have taken the instruments of the orchestra and created the illusion of concert halls or large spaces you could wander through (for hours if you're daydreamers like us!)...just beautiful!

  • We love - Instagram.

    Ah yes, the app phenomenon that's taking the world by storm. We really love Instagram. It makes even the most mundane photo so awesome. The guys at mashable.com asked the team behind it to rate their favourite images. Check a few of their favs here. It's amazing to think that these were all taken on a Smartphone.

  • We love - stop. motion. videos.

    If you like guacamole, stop motion video, or just random cool creativity, then check out this vid that we stumbled across.

    From the director who goes by the name PES, he transforms familiar objects into a tasty little guacamole treat. The animation is brilliant, but it's the sound effects that really make this come to life. Enjoy!

  • We love - a green lane.

    We've just heard about something interesting that's coming up in a couple of weeks time, and wanted to share it with you. The people at Pop Sydney: Sussex Lane are taking over Sussex Lane in Sydney for two days in March, and turning it into a lush, green oasis in the heart of this fair city of ours. We love a bit of grass action down a dark lane! It's your chance to feel the grass under your feet whilst listening to some interesting speakers talk about the City of Sydney's plans fo...

  • New sketching medium set to save time?

    Recently my love of the trusty sketch pad and pencil has suffered a blow by the purchase of a stylus for my iPad and Adobe Ideas app. Before all the traditionalist sketchers get up in arms, I haven't put the 2B down for good, but here are a few things I've found the Adobe Ideas app can do: The interface is simple and well designed, with all controls located down the side of the screen to use with your non-drawing hand. There are more complex drawing apps available but I was surp...

  • The ‘F’ word - in print.

    Digitalpress, a local printer dedicated to innovative digital printing, wanted to produce an alphabetised poster series of all things they are. We were given the letter F and asked to create an A2 poster print design with the only requirement being that it needed to reflect the company and what they do. First step was to brainstorm what we thought of Digitalpress and what they do, and F words associated with that. Secondly we looked at different techniques that could be employed...
