Vapour - Nike ACG 20th Anniversary Brochure

I found this work a year or so ago, and recently came across it again, and still really like it. It is created by Vapour, a design agency in Leeds. The retro feel, colours, shapes and patterns work well with the brand Nike have established for themselves. The photographs appeal to the active type of person that they are wanting to connect with, and are very far removed from the typical outdoor clothing and accessories that can be plain in colour and not very attractive.

I know it's taken me a while to post this, as the work was produced in 2009, but I like it and think it deserves to be shared.

Big Fish Design Studio

I've been looking around the web at design studios for inspiration, and to see how they like to present themselves through their website. One studio that really caught my eye was big fish. They started in 1994, and since then have created "60 brand identities, over 1,000 items of literature, and gazillions of packs, written 27 brand strategies, 32 marketing strategies, a hell
of a lot of words, designed & built over 100 websites, art directed over 1,000 photoshoots, shot many 1,000's ofhigh definition images in our photographic studio, written, designed & produced 140 press ads and have directed & produced our first cinema commercial."

With a very impressive client list, awards, and an obvious love of what they do, big fish are certainly a bright team of creative minds.

Below is a series of work created by big fish. Fresh, clean and beautiful.
