Kohler Chocolate Packaging

Kohler chocolate packaging is very elegant and well designed. There is a classic feel, however still feels somewhat contemporary. The buyer is getting chocolate that is desirable, not only through taste but aesthetically also.

30 Corporate Design Typefaces

A magazine article with 30 typefaces suitable for corporate design. It's good to have a bit of background knowledge on the fonts and how, when and by whom they were designed. I'm sure this article will help me when I'm struggling to find a suitable typeface.

30 Corporate Design Typefaces

Cut Paper Art

Peter Callesen creates beautiful paper art. It's impressive what can be created using just paper and glue, and also the scale of some of the pieces.

Pencil Lead Art

Absolutely amazing pencil lead art created by Dalton Ghetti. It's so precise and intricate.

Starbucks Logo

I'm liking the new Starbucks logo at the moment. It's much simpler and is free of the circles boundary from the previous logos. The text has also been removed, and with it being such an iconic logo, it's still as effective and obvious of the company as ever before.

It's definitely been brought up to date, looking more contemporary but still keeping the main element that has been the logo seen since 1971.

Beach Calligraphy

I came across these amazing images yesterday and was really impressed. The artist is Andrew van der Merwe, in a style he calls beach calligraphy.The carving into the sand is so precise, with wonderful shadows cast into the lines, and the location looks so serene.

Terrible Packaging

This is an example of dreadful design.
I really don't understand what Wella were thinking. This packaging is so dull and dated that it doesn't stand out on a shelf full of colourful, shiny, vibrant hair dye boxes. Also I don't understand how they can put 'brand leader' in the top right corner.
Maybe it's meant to be a joke?
Who knows!
