Beautiful. Design design design. I love how these wonderfully designed postcards parade themselves in these compositions. Intrepid design directions give birth to well crafted creative work. Postcards has always been one of the most ideal platform for artists to work on. Have a look at these designs published by Princeton Architectural Press. The article was posted here.
Interestingly, good creative work can be automated and still look compelling. While most of us adore the brilliant works of designers who craft beautiful visuals out of words, many do not know the process of doing so. Typography as this process is called, is one that requires sharp eyes, a creative layout experience and a nice balance in space. Try imaging words as pictures for a start. Not making it too frivolous, one can experiment working with wider white spaces and neater fonts. Be cautious on the use of kerning and lading and achieve great balance between positive and negative space. Now, with Notegraphy, you can forego these tips and immediate craft brilliant typography!

What do you know? Volkswagen’s going electric and here’s two cute ads by TRY/Apt, oslo, Norway.
Heres some amazing work by Motherbird, a creative agency based in Melbourne. These are really neat design work done up for MTV. I love the use of raw imagery and nice markerish typography. Certainly a new way to see MTV in a different angle. A more rebellious interpretation of the brand. Nice.
Gotta say I love these collaterals done up for Berg Mailing. They are really simple and clean. If you are a fan of typography, then this is definitely going to appeal to you. Every single piece of flyer is designed to stand on its own with its very unique material and finishing. Check out the gold foil stamping as well as the other techniques which is adopted. Not something I have seen lately. Feels original and one which would appeal to the eyes of the masses.
