Anisa Suthayalai is the creative head behind byDefault and she deserves hall of fame recognition for the quality, diversity and uber creativity demonstrated in all her projects.
Some of the clients would have been more than challenging but she pulls it with flair, gusto and elegance and a touch of humor.
Execution like in minute attention to details, differentiation, chromatics, layout and originality.
Don’t think she has it any different than any of us – the brief – the expectations – the deadline – the budget! But she seems to step up and push everything one notch ahead.
No blatant easy solutions. Just originality and originality and originality with transcending communication skills.

Punkt. Cleverly put together international campaign by Rosie Lee – a hybrid creative agency.. dedicated to bringing to life the innovative ideas brands need in today’s cluttered marketing space. It’s kind of hard to imagine needing a ‘phone’ other than a mobile – buy hey – if so – this one’s for you.
A very minimalist object designed by Jasper Morrison – no frills – but packed with functionalities. Watch the campaign video when mobile flat design is teleported to an analog object. Clever.

Colour Mania by Viction:ary.
Where the world dances in a veritable kaleidoscope of colours, everything becomes one of its kinds in their unique colours even if they are flat and mute. Taking a glance at a rambling collection of works, extensively covering campaigns, illustrations, branding, packaging, products and more.
It manifests how unicolour designs draw on the essence of nine colours and a rainbow tone, and project powerful impacts in an era ablaze with all sorts of hues.

If you like colors as I do – this one is for you.

Vinyl cover with analog light animation by Michael Hansen.
Convincing project that shows beyond doubt that black & white only themed designs cannot be above ordinary and being exemplary in keeping w/ a tight budget.
Stunning simplicity. Briliant concept.

Times have changed. Small businesses are looking for big ideas without the hefty price tag. Creative agencies are looking for talented designers without the long-term commitment.
Knoed was established to do both.

Me who loves minimalist in everything design – not in a boring way but in an inspiring lift-me-up–everything-is-possible way. The packaging for IdeaPaint is exactly that. Cool, fresh and self-explanatory.
