Who luvs crayons?

:N*: Who luvs crayons? They do! They do! Mulheres Barbadas, aka the Bearded Ladies are an illustration duo from São Paulo, Brazil who fill up walls (piano, fridge, anything really) with black and white drawings! Totally amazing stuff!

Watch background movie, scroll to see their work.

Have a byte?

:N*: Oh! Geraldine Klein designed these scrumpidelicious pen drives!

The London Police

:N*: Well The London Police ain’t what you think. Strictly black and white, permanent ink on canvas illustrations of smiley characters populating mega-detailed (mostly urban) landscapes.

Sopp Collective

:Update: Going simple. Going easy navigation. Going pink for the Sopp Collective new website. You like?

What time?

:N*: Weeeee! Can you figure out what time it is? Took me a couple of back and forth through the different pictures to figure it out. Check the Defakto purist (and single-handed) watch!

Because time ain’t always on our side!

Image sequencing

:N*: Like the idea of including everything you’ve done. seen, written and snapped in a single page and this approach was embraced by Paul Witherden, a London based designer.

Layout and image sequencing are key to avoid a drab listing.

Productivity tips

:News: 25 No-Nonsense Ways to Power Up Your Productivity by Alex Mathers

“With tons of things to do and seemingly less and less time in the day, being productive is a core requirement to the lives of most freelancing creative professionals.”

Felipe Avila

:N*: Felipe Avila likes movement bursting with floating forms, shapes, lots of circles, fluid like opaque to transparent landscapes unidentifiable matter. Ad dramatic splashes of colors and voilà! Definitely someone to watch!

Edible art?

:N*: Check out the details of Mariana Pugliese edible art! Who would want to eat such a fantastic cake anyway?

WeLoveNoise

:N*: WeLoveNoise is the creative outlet of Manchester based designer Luke Finch. Interesting panning navigation using the spreaded out project visuals.

Visual Brain Gravity

:Update: Always flux because as says Gregor Žakelj their creative director, because we are never satisfied, VBG (which stands for Visual Brain Gravity) is a visual communication service. Everybody is talking about what they wanna-be. But we just are. And we have visions. Showing loads of visual treats, check their portfolio.
