Vintage Camera Ads

Here's a link to a bunch of Vintage Camera Ads, very revealing of the old school growth and experimentation in graphic design.

Book Idea

An area of exploration I am pursuing for my book assignment, is etiquette of grievous or events, and how to approach them politely and appropriately. I'm thinking this book will be illustrated with a satirical, humorous style, which juxtaposes the saddening events that will be discussed.

Matchbox spine | Trapped in Suburbia Design Studio


Fascinating play of what the spine of the book can do by the Trapped in Suburbia studio.

""Where there is smoke, there is fire" is a publication about the old Caballero Cigarette factory, which has been transformed into a creative work area. Where once cigarettes where made, now creatives projects are made by architects, photographers, industrials designers, graphic designers, web designers etc.

The back of the cover and the typography on the front is silkscreen printed with matchbox structure, so you can light a match with the book. In the book we've used several different papers that represent the different textures in the building."
