Südpol 2012

The Südpol is a multi-purpose cultural centre in

Kriens, Switzerland, close to Lucerne, that houses

a theatre, a symphony orchestra, a brass band, a

music school, a restaurant, a flea market, and rents

its rooms for performances of music, dance, theatre,

literature, digital arts and so on. The concept for

this poster series was originally designed by Erich

Brechbühl. After working with his concept for over

a year, I transformed it this summer into a very free

construct. The only guidelines are now the previously

defined font family, the font size for the medium

text and the risograph technique. Everything else

- position, colour, shape - may vary. We call this

corporate diversity. That means the idea to have a

corporate design that sets you no useless boundaries

to really illustrate the content. Simply put, it is a

corporate design that is as free as possible.

OHLAB

Oliver Hernaiz Architecture Lab is an office devoted to

urban analysis and cultural research of contemporary

society through design, architectural practice and

urban strategy.

OHLAB's creative process is based on exhaustive and

rigorous exploration of possibilities, ranging from the

most serious to the most absurd, to find strategies to

get more from the spaces.

If the action of building is to join different shapes and

materials, we wanted to create something completely

opposite, a card that you have to break, segment or

deconstruct to use it.

The cards have been perforated into different

// Client_OHLAB

// Studio_IS Creative Studio.

// Creative Director_Richars Meza

// Designers_Richars Meza, Bet Puigbò,

Isabella De Cuppis

// Country_Spain

segments that represent the areas of an architectural

drawing that can be segmented in different ways,

tailored to the needs in an efficient way.

In each sheet there are twenty-one different card

possibilities without repeating the same design. And

even with the possibility that a card can, if necessary,

be broken down into parts without impairing its

function, since the information is distributed equally

on both sides.

The patterns we use in the back are those that come

by default in the architects' software - AutoCad - the

absurd and ironic side that we love the most.

The main theme of Designers' Week this year is 'Flow

- The Power of Forward', which means a continuous

flow of the never-ending creativity of Taiwanese

designers. Ten different 'theme zones' are strung

together by the word 'flow': Flow in Phenomenon,

Flow in Memory, Flow in Environment and Flow in

Methodology.

Wo Hing General Store

Wo Hing General Store is a contemporary restaurant

in San Francisco's Mission district presenting a unique

take on Chinese street-food.

The identity references the delicate nature of noodles,

a main staple on the restaurant's menu. In addition to

the logo, we created a rich, colourful visual language

using only the aforementioned humble noodle.

Using a scanner, designers experimented with raw

and cooked noodles to create a number of flowing,

abstract images.

As a departure from the ubiquitous neon sign seen

in many Chinese restaurants, Manual designed a

lightweight transparent window sign, screen printed

with electroluminescent ink.

Once in a while it happens that you have to send

real mail out into the world. To make the moment

of receiving mail in the post box special again, ARE

WE DESIGNER initiated this project to create a set

of beautiful goodies to delight clients and friends,

themselves and – not to forget – the postman.

A whole range of different sticky things to put on

envelopes, parcels and other postal packages was

created, like different sized address-labels, different

kinds of stamps and stickers and a tape with some

nice pearls of wisdom on it. Any combination of all

these elements is possible, and they fit together

perfectly.

Eye

Eye is a forward-thinking, innovation-driven Out of

Home media company, with an international presence.

With rapid growth across different territories, the

company needed to define a new vision. It started

internally with the development of new cultural values

and behaviours plus a new collaborative approach

to generating client solutions. This was followed by

a new company logo and visual identity system that

culminated in the launch of a new customer magazine

and global website. The rebrand includes a new

symbol and wordmark, tone of voice, behaviours

and team guidelines, office and environment

design, advertising and marketing campaigns and

comprehensive guidelines. We continue to work with

Eye as brand guardians and provide ongoing creative

direction in the development of their global website.

Sagmeister & Walsh created an art car for KIA called

'Light & Shadows'(yin & yang). The car and the

surrounding environment was turned into a giant

word search. Visitors to the show were asked to

find hundreds of hidden yin & yang themed words.

Yin words included 'fearful, lazy, slut, shyster, hell,

vomit' and yang included 'joy, excitement, orgasm,

optimism'.

Metropolitan Wharf Signage

// Country_UK

Mind Design designed the signage and a customised

font for the Metropolitan Wharf building. Since the

development is located on the embankment of the

River Thames it was an obvious idea to use driftwood

for the tenants board. Easier said than done. The

project was technically quite challenging. Driftwood

had to be found in the right dimension, then cleaned

and dried. The lettering was done with sandblasting

but some of it was manually enhance with wood dye

later. Each piece had to be drilled from the back and

fitted with studs which clamped onto large copper

rails. This way each sign can be removed individually

and exchanged in case new tenants move in. About

half of the units are still unoccupied and the new

names will be added later. The typeface was designed

in collaboration with Neal Fletcher and matches the

historic lettering on the outside of the building. The

font has two versions, one for sandblasting and one

for printing.

Miscellaneous


Patalastas Shirt Packaging 'Hanger'

Historically, Campaigns has always been involved in

social advocacy. Since 2003, the company has sent

many underprivileged kids from Smokey Mountain to

school. For its 25th Anniversary, Campaigns aimed to

step up their Smokey Mountain scholarship program

by helping up to 31 kids and adding cash bonuses for

students who would get high grades.

To support this effort, we needed to come up with

additional activities to raise more money in a short

time.

One of the quickest ways to raise funds is to sell

t-shirts. To push our t-shirts' sales potential, we

capitalised on the Filipinos' nostalgic tendencies by

looking back at famous Filipino ads from the past 25

years.

To make the merchandise more appealing, we came

up with a novel design for the packaging. Made of

card, the shirt box was designed in the shape of a

clothes hanger with images of vintage Pinoy ads

printed in it.

The Patalastas shirts were sold out in two weeks,

raising nearly P 50,000 from sales.

Reishunger Bio Risotto

Reishunger is a German brand who sell high quality

rice from the best regions of origin worldwide. Their

latest product, Bio Risotto, is a convenience product.

All of the ingredients come from organic farms, but

the company aims at a different target market with

their raw rice products: they are quickly and easily

prepared, with the quality one would expect from a

Reishunger product. Following these ideas, we took

the strict, bold typography from the existing rice

packaging and added high quality photography of the

main ingredient (tomato, eggplant, porcini, etc.). The

script typeface and quirky illustrations communicate

playfulness, simplicity and fun, making the Bio Risotto

a logical extension of the Reishunger product line.

Getxophoto 2012

Getxophoto asked us to design the poster and image

for the 6th edition of the photography festival. This

is the third edition curated by Frank Kalero, of which

the theme is 'In Praise of Childhood'. To develop the

concept, we asked ourselves what is the common thing

that children of very different ages love to do besides

playing. That's how we decided on colouring books.

We created a series of three posters in collaboration

with GUCHAGUCHA, who produced all the illustrations

for the series. These posters have the Getxophoto

logo as the main character, and it goes on different

adventures in the forest, in the city and in space. We

asked some kids to help us, with the permission of

their parents. We gave them colour pencils, markers

and crayons, and asked them to colour the posters,

with no guidance at all. The result was fantastic! Gala (3

years old) coloured 'Getxophoto in the forest', Isabel (5

years old) coloured 'Getxophoto in the city', and Félix

(6 years old) coloured 'Getxophoto in space'.

A book describing in detail Czech stadiums, gyms and

other sports architecture from 1567 to the present.

The publisher determined its shape with two clear

demands: to save money by using only two colours

and for the title of the book to be really, really big

on the cover. All photos were then transferred to

monochrome, gaining adequate 'archival' quality. Red

colour and italics were added to convey the dynamism

of motivational slogans often displayed in the gyms,

denoting sport as a movement in several senses of the

word. And the title encapsulates the book, crossing

from front to back over the edge, just like a well-built

gymnast would.
