Umbro HQ – Love

A terribly lazy post, seen via What Makes Us in my usual daily/weekly sweep of favourite blog links…

Really lovely work from Love, (based in Manchester) for Umbro HQ, signage + generally making the work place a space to  ‘inspire and motivate’. Images via Love.

A little extra is that Love has a blog as well

As real as it gets

How to describe this…half the fun for me was to work out what this was when I got the link from a designer at work, cheers Cam. (Shamefully took probably a bit too long!)…check it out on Flickr…(print and poster work for software-asli.com)

Cass Art

Quite interested to know more about the story and journey of Cass Art and Angus Hyland’s partnership ‘to shake up the traditional art materials retailer’ that has been grown over the last 10 years. Love the current designs for Cass Art’s own product range of cartridge paper. This range seen via Graphic Exchange, more details via Pentagram (another post worth checking out has the full range of sketchbooks and pads).

‘The cinematography of Nicolas Winding Refn (DRIVE) encapsulated in this gritty graphic animation.’

Joseph Egan & Hunter Thomson

Created by students Joseph Egan + Hunter Thomson for part of their final year show at Chelsea College of Art & Design 2011. All round pretty cool. More pics, vids and words on their site.

Endless links across different networks for this guy but check his Behance page. Originally seen via Jeannie Jeannie.

SIT

Really tasty work, stuff you would actually want to own.

“Artist SIT has been part of the Amsterdam creative scene for many years. Doing action painting, graphic design, advertising and more until he got fed up. He went back to square one to find his true essence. Back to head and handcraft.”

Words and pics SIT. Seen via 1983.
