5 year old analyses corporate logos

So incredibly cute but also completely cuts through any of the associations many of us have with these icons or logos. Probably seen in their simplest terms.

Happy New Year No massive party tonight as we were both a bit...

With Associates – November

Andy — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 09:27:37 +0000

With Associates have completed their November update to their redesign-our-site-once-a-month thing. The end result is great as usual but also sad to see our efforts for October go.

However the thing that’s far more interesting to me is the behind the scenes or process that goes into it. A fairly ambitious 4 hours was set to do the whole thing and again was recorded with a timelapse which fittingly is four minutes long.

And here’s a few more images from their Flickr set.

Brain Food / Eye Candy

Andy — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 00:33:57 +0000

For a long while I stopped buying CDs, books and journals. I don’t know why I stopped, maybe I felt a bit burnt out from my Diploma at Portsmouth or maybe I’d just lost interest. Anyway I’ve started buying books again each month. I kind of think this has something to do with getting interested in Architectural Photography. As well as looking at the Architecture I’m constantly scanning the images to see how they have been done, who the Photographer is etc. I set aside a little money maybe £50 – £60 and then buy a few nice books. Emma also has started doing this, she buys four novels a month and aims to read one a week. She calls hers “Brain Food”, I call mine “Eye Candy”. This month I kind of blew my budget a bit but never mind.

So the books in order are (top left clockwise)…

Happenstance by David Solomons
Underground by David Solomons. Both are available to buy here.
A Constructed View: The Architectural Photography of Julius Shulman
Henk Snoek: Architectural Photography
Stanton Williams: Volume

Objectified

Last Thursday I went to the UK showing of Objectified at the Curzon in Chelsea. Unfortunately Emma was ill so I went with Neil in the end. Great film about design with some real characters in there.

The questions session with Jonathon Ive at the end was superb though. I don’t think I’ve ever seen quite so many iPhones in one location though!
