Caught my eye today: BLEED a multi-disciplinary design consultancy based in Oslo, Norway. Working to challenge today’s conventions around art, visual language, media and identity. Website, logo and portfolio are outstanding!
JD Hooge (x Second Story) founded Gridplane 10 yrs ago, to help big and small clients bring their stories to life. Gridplane specializes in unifying practical user interaction with engaging design to craft unique experiences. As you can see, the website is all about sobriety, light gray background and blue / black thumbnails, links, etc.
He is well-know for his extraordinary dataviz projects. No slowing down in sight for this interactive veteran.
Because Studio is the independent design practice of Loz Ives, a young chap from the north of England who has a keen eye for detail, simplicity and relevance within the work he produces.
Just LUV his print and branding portfolio!
