An exploration on organic form and structure (in contrast to his usual geometric approach) by Marius Roosendaal.
Wish these were available as prints.
Andrew Rae is an illustrator capable of rendering just about any scenario, either real or imagined.
_______
His well-observed and witty approach has led to a wide range of commissions, both editorial and commercial. He is based in London.
MUTI based in Cape Town / SA – were designated to create a South African safari scene – as part of a global promotion project for Lufthansa – with an aim to portray several interesting and entertaining situations taking place in the teeming crowd.
The round medallions is a cool approach to convey being immersed in a particular setting or situation. As you can see – the illustrations are brimming over with details – but not overwhelmingly so.
Good job.
Gilles & Cecilie Studio design, illustrate, curate, paint walls, write copy, share their knowledge through lectures, talks and workshops, make tailored work, like to push boundaries. Whew!
_______
Their works feel like a never-ending Summer of youthful boundary-less exhuberance. Loads and loads of colors – or none. Diamond shapes are a must obviously but not limited to. Surfaces – in-store – outdoors – wall or window treatments abound as packaging to stamps.
Life choreographed and celebrated.
That is a gorgeous Apple keyboard mock-up designed by Gorm Haraldsson from Sweden. His 3d abilities are through the roof.

_______
And how about two sizes of soda can? No problem – free .psd to download as well.
Nigel Buchanan lives in Sydney and works in a big old warehouse with a bunch of other illustrators. He likes the company of others – that’s really nice to know.
He has won awards – that’s really nice. He has served these type of clients The Wall Street Journal, MTV,The New York Times, TIME magazine, Money Week Paris and The Radio Times in London – that’s really nice too.
_______
But what is even more nice – is the quality of his work. Such finesse. Such control. A cross between caricacturist and real-life portraitist – what is even more nicer – is the depth of his concepts.
Justin Mezzell is a super talented illustrator and graphic designer who make things (for a stellar brochette of clients). Some of them move. Some not.
His style is very simple yet in the simplicity there are a lot perceivable details. Much akin to ‘icon’ design in trending ‘flat’ design.
I really enjoy his little moving marvels.
