Cigarettes



I do not like cigarrettes but I really like these packets designed by Asyl, in Japan, in 2004. The design was made to Japan Tobacco International.

2001 Wall Calendar

You might have noticed that I love font designs. In this wall calendar for 2001, the designer George Tscherny used type as image. According to him, "the challenge was to find or create as many forms as possible".

Hugo Boss Annual Report

This is a very creative way of mixing design with economic data. This Annual Report for 1999 was made by Peter Schmidt Studios. "Inside the report, ellegant text and financial pages contrast with glossy full-page fashion and architeture shots. The report ends with a four-spread graphic of a race car driving in a glittering silver track, the Boss logo."

Canadian Breast Cancer Campaign

I found this poster in Toronto last week and I really liked the idea the designer used to communicate. I found it innovative, progressive, energetic and fun. What do you think?



The folder was produced by the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. The add does not has the designer's name listed.
