New website and a lot of work at 21-19 (once you start clicking through all of it). There is some really great stuff in there as well running the full gammit from print, motion and interactive.

Some interesting work in the portfolio of Monostation. I could swear that the above image reads ‘Shot in the Dork’ but it says ‘Shot in the Dark’.
Crazy horses and monkeys and triangles and well, just crazy glowing things that look kind of awesome from Finnish designer/illustrator Sakke Soini. I have posted his work before but there has been some notable updates including the pretty damned cool image above.
Cool work and website from Expo Cooperative. I love the simplicity. It all works together.
New work posted to Serial Cut. I have been seeing his ads in a lot of publications lately.
Steven Harrington has released an pretty amazing and large (18×24) screenprint titled Un Royaume that glows in the dark. It is a really nice print with an extra special bonus.
You can read more about it at OMG Posters and you can purchase one of the signed and very limited (only 150 printed at $50 a pop) posters here.
All about Six By Ten:
“Brought to you by FormFiftyFive, Six by Ten is a unique collaboration between writers and designers. At FFF, we’re always meeting new and exciting creatives and we wanted to find a way to showcase their work and inspire people to great things.
We had a chat with our writer friend Laura Forman who introduced us to six-word stories, named our project and wrote the story for issue 01. So what’s a six-word story? exactly as it sounds. A story told in six words, no more, no less.
For each issue of Six by Ten, we’ll be commissioning a six-word story by a different writer and asking ten players from FFF to unleash their talents on it. So that’s one writer, six words and ten interpretations. We hope to produce a very special run of 60 editions of each issue.”
Kudos to the people at FormFiftyFive. Fantastic blog with guaranteed content run by some really great people with an absolute passion for design.
The work from the Italian design studio Temp has been making the blog rounds today, and for good reason, there is some great stuff in their book.
“Cardboard is a fundraiser for 3rd Year Graphic Design students at Salford University – to help raise money for their end of year exhibition. The cards feature artists like Jon Burgerman, Tom Judd, Parra, Jeremy Ville aswell as 3rd year design students themselves.
All money raised goes into producing the show.”
Cool idea. Much better than your average Christmas card.
New site, work and probably some nightmares to be found at Left Hand Rotation.
Via Grafik has been around for some time and was no doubt an early influence on a lot of aspiring designers. They recently put up a new site along with an online storefront.
Here is a little more about Via Grafik:
“Via Grafik is both a graphic design studio and an art collective based in Wiesbaden, Germany.
Working in the fields of graphic design, motion design, art direction and illustration, we are interested in developing design solutions at a unique visual level. Our aim hereby is to provide the best suitable design for the specific content of each individual project, whether it be large or small.”
Interesting projects, apparently for kids, in the Flickr-folio of E-Glue.
Anthony (A.K.A. Snowblinded) emailed to let me know he will be having a solo show next week at The Shoppe in Denver. The Shoppe is run by two of the kindest and most wonderful people I know in Denver, Josh and Tran Wills. It is guaranteed to be a great event and a unique one is well. It is nice to see someone who leans more towards the graphic persuasion getting their due in Denver. I would love to see more shows like this. If you will be in town please make the time to stop by. I unfortunately will be attending my wife’s graduation for her Masters. Otherwise I would be there. So please go and give Anthony my best and tell him Changethethought sent you.
Wow, some really nice work coming out of the windy city from Some Odd Pilot. I love the ‘view all’ options on their website as well.
Here is a little more about them from their about section:
“Founded in 1999, Someoddpilot has earned a reputation for the blending of original photography, handmade typography, illustration and digital effects to produce internationally recognized graphic arts, web development & branding.
We have provided services for international brands, small to large corporations, artists, musicians and numerous culturally significant institutions (including branding, building and designing Pitchforkmedia.com, the world’s most-read music editorial publication). We are a proud supporter of the independent music and arts communities, as our portfolio will attest.
Located in Chicago – America’s bike-friendliest city – we are an agency of A-list, talent-only & car-less members. This puts us in the position to be flexible, experimental, responsive, fast and often in harm’s way. We’ve been in business for 10 years, which is somewhat uncommon in the strata of small graphics and web development firms, and it is something that we believe speaks to our dedication and to the unique position we occupy within the community.”
Design Bum (Issara Willenskomer) has launched a new website. Issara is great if you have not yet visited his previous site or heard of him. His design resource download section has bee a staple for me for the last couple years and it has got to be one of the more generous freebie sections from a portfolio site out there. There is some exceptional stuff in there that really does come in handy more often then you might think. He has done some equally exceptional work for some big clients as well.
Strange and fascinating things abound at the personal playground of designer/musician/artist Markus Hofko A.K.A. Rainbowmonkey.
Updates in the portfolio of Sydney’s own Toko. Toko is the bees knees.
