Daniel Swan lives in Brixton, London where he is currently studying graphic design at Camberwell. He takes a very hand-on approach to his design work.

There is a really good body of work in the portfolio of French studio PNTS, not the least of which is a series of really cool geometric symmetrical layouts using old school bodybuilding photographs. Nothing like Arnold in the 70s.
Alba Rosell and Santi Fuster met at ESDI where they studied graphic design. They founded Bendita Gloria in January of 2007.
“Team Here is five designers, Sarah Carr, Caz Hildebrand, Arran Lidgett, Kate Marlow and Mark Paton. Our collective backgrounds include branding, packaging, print and publishing.”
They have some really beautiful work nested within a broad portfolio.
There is some flat out smart and beautiful graphic design happening in the portfolio of Design By Music. The above layout is genius.
And is a Melbourne, Australia-based design studio that has some really slick work in their recently-released portfolio. They were kind enough to email in their work and I was impressed. Good stuff.
“Young Monster is an art collective based out of Chattanooga, TN, specializing in design and screen-printing.” They have some red hot gig posters in their portfolio. Pure bad ass.
Sebastien Cuypers has some slick vector work in his Behance-folio. I am loving the retro-sensibility of the image above.
S–W is a collaboration between Tobias Becker & Matthias Kantereit working in Mannheim & Karlsruhe as a team of collaborative independent graphic designers.
Venice, Italy-based design studio Iknoki was founded in 2007 by Francesco D’ Abbraccio, Francesco Greguol and Christian Jugovac. They have some interesting graphic design work happening in their portfolio including a really nice series of posters for Oragami, a series of events based in Treviso.
Graphic designer Matthew Barnes has a lot of really interesting and considered work happening throughout his highly varied portfolio. The images are small but the work is well worth browsing.
Creative/Art Director Craig Andrew Smith has some really stellar work in his portfolio and has managed to work with and direct some really big talents in the design world while working at Bartle Bogle Hegarty (BBH) New York.
Since 1416 was founded in 2005 by Dirk Claessens & Maarten Verweij. There is some very considered graphic design work in their collective portfolio.
Graphic designer/artist, Saiman Chow has some new work in his portfolio and to be frank, this latest series pictured above is just flat-out weird. There is no arguing that it’s intrigueing but it is definitely strange.
My buddies at Cypher 13 (the guys behind Joyengine) have launched a new version of their website that is looking really great. They never cease to amaze me. Their new site looks great and functions perfectly for a portfolio site. There is also some really good work to browse through as well.
They work so damned hard and just refust to stay static. They are always pushing to get better at what they do and I have been sincerely inpired by how much progress they have made over the last couple years that I have known them. I don’t make it up to Boulder to see them hardly ever and I need to make an effort because I miss them. They are great guys and just continue to keep pushing themselves. That pushing is starting to translate into some well-deserved success for them. Props fellas.
Talented image maker, Sakke Soini has updated with a few new pieces in his Behance-folio.
Andrio Abero (33rpm) just keeps updating with more and more beautiful examples of graphic design. The guy is a powder keg of talent. I love everything he produces.
Bizzarro Leads-based art house, Kraffhics has recently updated since I posted them a long while back now. They are definitely owning their strangeness (but I like it).
