The Lollipop Shoppe – Hamish Makgill

I like the idea of an “identity that didn’t have to only exist in two dimensions” –

“The Lollipop Shoppe is a modern furniture and accessories retailer… We created a bespoke stencil typeface (part inspired by the 20th century modular stencils created by Josef Albers and Le Corbusier, but with a contemporary elegance). This allows the identity to be physical – it can be cut, it can be built, it can be stamped.”

Derek Richards (pantone calendar)

Derek Richards was commissioned to create a calendar for Pantone.

‘the main aim for me was to make this calendar relevant on a global scale. with the colour wheel being universally recognised, i used this and combined it with a mosaic made up of 1440 different images to create my main graphic. to answer a question i have been asked a few times, no ‘special software’ was used to produce this. the grid was build in Illustrator and i placed all 1440 images by hand in (as close to as possible) some sort of colour order.’

From the Behance Network
Seen via What Makes Us again! Definitely the blog to follow – stunning selection of inspiration.
