Paradiso
Wednesday, 25 August 2010
Recently, we were asked by Paradiso to redesign their program poster. The old version of the poster, which we designed in 1996, can be seen elsewhere. The new poster can be seen here. 
In short, we streamlined the design, lost the arrows, changed the holes from capsule-shaped to circle-shaped, and turned the poster from two colours to one colour. Also, we added a subtle play in which the die-cut holes and the printed circles 'eclipse' each other, almost like an abstracted moon calendar.
The new poster will be 'unveiled' this Friday (Aug. 27, 2010), on the outside walls of Paradiso. More info will follow on our Facebook page. |
Moon Life Store
Wednesday, 25 August 2010
We're currently creating the graphic identity of Moon Life Store, a museum shop that will be part of Moon Life, a travelling group exhibition curated by the artist Alicia Framis. We're also working on sketches for the architecture of the store. An early scale-model can be seen below:

Clip, Stamp, Fold & Staple
Next Sunday (June 27, 2010), Clip/Stamp/Fold will open at NAiM / Bureau Europa (Maastricht). C/S/F is an exhibition focusing on architectural fanzines from the '60s and '70s, and for this show we designed an invitation, two posters (A2 and A0), a bilingual catalog, a fanzine, the typography in the exhibition, the titles on the wall, etc.
C/S/F is actually a travelling exhibition: it first took place in 2007, at the Storefront in New York City, and has been touring ever since. The website of the original NYC show, designed by Project Projects, can be seen here. Further information about the Dutch edition of C/S/F can be found on the website of Bureau Europa. Next week's opening features a program of public lectures, so when in the neighbourhood, do drop by.

NYC / TLA
We'll be off the radar for a couple of weeks. Tomorrow we're heading to NYC; we'll be back in the studio mid-April. Why New York? Well, first of all, we're gonna conduct/deliver a small workshop/lecture at Pratt Institute. Secondly, we have some meetings planned. But other than that, we're trying to keep it as open as possible. We just want to walk around, go to shows and exhibitions, eat nice vegetarian food, and walk around some more. Free as a bird. If you bump into us in the streets, say hi!
Regarding the lecture, we're actually planning to do a talk about the use of acronyms in our work; the workshop will be about acronyms as well. The working title is TLA.
(We have to admit, we received very friendly invitations to do some more lectures while in NY, but we politely declined. One lecture is already nerve-racking enough!)
