LOVE the typographic treatments done by Alexander Egger aka Satellites mistaken for stars. He has a knack for out-there experimental lay-outs and grids that are near non-legible – and on the other hands he creates minimalist signage that says it all.
_______
The multiple editorial projects he was involved with – attest to his ability to reinvent books – or perhaps better said – how we read.
Expect the unexpected.
I don’t know how they pulled this – finding a look alike Van Gogh – but the visual impact is undeniable.
Les Impressionistes is a stunning ad campaign for KelOptic – a glassware company.
Superlative idea by Y&R Paris.

Gotta love the play on words of LIE – an acronym of Little Ideas Everyday, a graphic design studio based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and founded by Driv Loo in 2011.
Pay attention to domain name: ‘wearenotlie’ and below about page picture that refer to a well-known ‘lier’ character.
_______
Excellent portfolio that is ‘not sticking with the norm or patterns’.
Love the presentation of Skidmore statement: "Agency? Studio? Same thing, right? Not to us. We think it’s important to do the little things, ask the tough questions, be authentic and always strive for the extraordinary."
To capitalize on large interior studio vistas laced with morsels of well thought-out captions provoke interest. Cool space.
Are you going offline for a while? Or in a rut to redesign (again?!) your online portfolio website?? Or under a long term contract inside a somewhere agency or corporation?
Always a good idea to still ‘show-up’.
Collect no more than 10 best pieces and make a slide show as Lee Goater did. Check placeholder and pay attention to info about the project is showing up in the circle.
Smart!
