some cool design work

just a sampling of different things i like.

1. first off, Ralph Steadman has been doing the design work for a Flying Dog, a beer company. i don't even like beer, but took home a bottle just for the label. his illustrations jump give off energy, they look somewhat random, but could not have been planned better.





2. i saw V for Vendetta this summer. the movie was spectacular and the posters refrence Russian Constructivst art which goes along with the film's theme. don't know who actually designed this particular poster, but the film credits list: Sarah Horton, Sebastian Krawinkel, and Steve Bream.


3. The Crisis, a publication of the NAACP, had this great cover. the design uses imaginary elements of house-shaped dice. i think this was a great way to visually communicate the "Housing Game" article in the issue. also, the use of lines and a plus sign divides up the page effectively.
