Nikon Manuals

Posted on 18/03/10.

Simple, strong and bold design for these manual covers for Nikon circa late 70s early 80s represents a product that will last (they are still in use today) as well as giving focus and unity across all their range. Great stuff.

New show at Dorsch opening March 13

Posted on 13/03/10.

Here in Miami we just had a sneak peak at these two new shows opening at Dorsch Gallery tonight and they look great. The artists are Elisabeth Condon whose book we worked on last year and Martin Murphy. Also looking great are the templates we created for these mailers, if we do say so ourselves (see our Branding section for more images). Dorsch Gallery have some very exciting shows planned for this year so make sure to keep them bookmarked.

Phil Stern

Posted on 08/03/10.

For more than 50 years, Phil Stern has captured images that we now recognize as iconic and familiar. The late Norman Granz of Verve Records commissioned Phil to photograph an endless stream of Jazz greats. These sleeves show Stern’s remarkable photographs paired with sophisticated typography, or simply the Verve logo. The image of Ella and Louis is particularly arresting and still manages to look contemporary.

We found these old Vivitar manuals while doing some window shopping on eBay. They date from the 1970s and are a great example of strong, simple graphic design with consistent branding.

This is something new we are working on at the moment, and thought at this flat (clue) stage it looked quite interesting. More to come soon.
