Bulldog develops a comprehensive rebranding program for an iconic Maltese brand: Calleja. View the case study! Indication of worthiness? Check the clever reversable posters they did!

Effektive is all about graphic design and communication. Independent and owned by Greig Anderson, hailing from Glasgow, they work across a wide range of disciplines, from identity and branding, print media to web design!
Won’t say it enough, their work is brilliant!

Nice! Love #3 identity for a cool inner city cafe that is part Japanese pop and part kitschy, small town diner by Deuce Design hailing from Australia. The ID was applied thoughout the cafe to stationery collateral and signage graphics.

Really like what Anthony Dimitre did with his trademark fatty iconic illustrations for the Arapaho Skateboards brand.

Carefully Considered is an army of one or as tailored as a project requires, with a movable staff of five designers, production artists and thinking folks. Now when you hit the website, you will be met by a picture of an out of this world and oh so slick futuristic motorcycle! And that’s just the beginning. Pointing out that the navigation is not usual and that you pan across different interface area.
But coming back to the motorcycle, check the fairly unique identity solution for this new motorcycle company in the UK called Mac Cycles. Instead of pursuing the typical logo design and printed system, CC created for them an identity applied to the motorcycles themselves.
Oh and what about the design on applied on the Husaberg bikes?
In another life I used to luv riding (fast) bikes ;-D

Another pearl found! Very nice website and portfolio projects for Blok Design who claims to be a “design studio and space for ideas, idealist and intuitive, international in character and scope..” The About text is quite a literary delight.
Don’t miss the Caban, Emigre Film, Evolutiva and Ödün projects. Bottom line, I have enjoyed most of their projects.
Quick note about these taglines: “There is always another way” — “Certainty is the death of exploration” — enough weight in these words to kickstart creative juices.
