inspiration for MOJO sauce

Mon, 30 Apr 2012 06:21:03 -0400

not posted in a while, just got a long list of links in my bookmarks so better start sharing them. Looked at this piece as a bit of inspiration for my packaging project that I am finishing off, looking at the finish and graphical representation of a wrapped parcel. A nice simple piece.

Not posted in a while, been a bit busy with dissertation, but I just finished reading this book and it was really good. So interesting but really useful for this essay.

ioukaformulas:

My ‘Gro2’ language has kindly been made into a flash programme by Dave Stevens - hoorah! This particular word says ‘Vicky’. Thinking of releasing the programme soon.

Awesome work by IOUKA here, and it is my name.

Discovered Noma Bar today, really is amazing work. These are just a few nice ideas I liked but there are so many more out there that are so clever, and done so simply and cleanly.

Just been shown this by graduate Jamin Galea as some inspiration for my branding project. The execution still has a long way to go, but this has been really useful.

Excellent book this, although I do recommend you click on the link and not go via google. Great inspiration material overall but has been really useful today for my Tree Hugger brief. Really worth having a look through.

Came across this while working for my current brief, Tree Hugger (museum of trees) was looking for a few bits of inspiration and this is really nice, a different idea but done really beautifully. Worth having a read of the article too.

Just come across Pentagrams Andy Warhol 2012 calendar, the whole thing looks amazing but I particularly like this quote. Seems like a good thing to keep in mind when looking for inspiration.

Nice bit of Website

Nice bit of Website:

Everything does seem to be snowboard related at the moment, but I am really enjoying the branding project and a love of snowboarding helps.
This is a really cool bit of website work, I like the interaction and just how easily it flows. Every page has an idea on it, simple and really nicely done, quite different too.

Sent to me by dj - HER JADE EYES, who i plan to do some branding work with. A nice video about music, but more importantly about aspects of design and being original, not just cover art but the whole ambient branding that goes with the industry.

I was sent a link to one of these today then had a look around their website, some amazing stuff and such a wicked idea. I have put up this clip due to my corp ID revolving around snowboarding.

Image from ‘Blower: Snowboarding Inside Out’
Gone back to my Burton members club identity this weekend and this was one of the images I found through my library based research. Love it from a snowboarders point of view, but also sums up what I am trying to say in my identity.

Just bought this, found it in a store at the weekend and thought it was really good. Great to get a bit of inspiration and see how designers work behind the scenes.

I love this advert, so different from other car adverts that I didn’t even realise it was one when I first saw it. Great idea, so simple and really nicely done.
