BooneOakley would probably be another advertising agency that nobody would care about so much. But they had a brilliant idea of creating their portfolio entirely on youtube.com. How does it work? When you visit their portfolio you will be redirected to the "front page" movie on youtube. The movie has got all the web interaction embedded - clicking on buttons will redirect you to another youtube movie. This is quite original idea and I am sure BooneOakley will get thousands of visists- by this post I am also adding some traffic to their portfolio. Enjoy!

Oh, by the way- the works presented in the "youtube" portfolio are also quite good. But who really cares? ;-)

Today I present works by Loic Sattler, extremely talented and already internationally acclaimed designer from France. His illustrations have got such precise elements and details- I am fond of his works so much that I present more images today than I usually do ;-)

Collaborative work with Sebastian Onufszak


Loic Sattler has made works for many international corporations which include: Coca-Cola, Adidas, Dolce&Gabbana, BMW, IBM, L'Oreal, Triumph, Warner Bros, Yamaha, Unicef, Sony. In his portfolio I found a couple of interesting illustrations advertising PUMA shoes:

PUMA 1.


PUMA 2.


PUMA 3.


Cited from Loic's CV:

He studied Media Communication and Multimedia for 2 years at the university Louis Pasteur (France), as well as 2 years in multimedia creation / theory at the European Institute of Design (France). He then moved at the Merz Akademie Stuttgart (Germany) to study new-media theory for his European Media Masterof Arts, an MA diploma delivered in 6 schools throughout Europe, by the University of Portsmouth (Uk). (...)

Loïc works with special emphasis on aesthetics, creative ideas and communication goals, with a very high attention to details.Inspired by everything, interested and enthusiastic, he is in love with visual creation. (...) His aim is to be understood as an individual who wishes to take things further by empowering his profession to the best of his ability.

Would you like to see some fresh-looking graphics and retro at the same time? Here you go- Fajne Chlopaki is a design collective from my home city Lodz in Poland. They have amused me with graphic design of two websites: lodz2016.com and fabrykasztuki.org. That is how I got to know them- the name "Fajne Chlopaki" meaning something like "Cool Boys" is a catchy and easy-to-remember name for the design studio.

Lodz 2016- candidate for European capital of culture


Fabryka Sztuki- art center in Lodz


Fajne Chlopaki are very active in designing promotional materials for various design organisations and events in Lodz. Good example is the Lodz design festival- below are some of the works they created for this occasion.

Programmers are often associated with boring, fat (or in contrary extremely thin) nerds wearing huge glasses and having no social life. Quite often you can meet individuals that perfectly fit this description. However, there are some programmers having artistic souls- they use their programming skills to create something unusual. One of these guys is Jared Tarbell, highly skilled and talented man from New Mexico.

Complexication is a portfolio of his experiments with mathematical equations and coding (Flash and Java)- he is providing source code for each of his works as well as applets presenting how the actual code works and how the final result is being created. In this way the experience of the viewer is much higher- people who are really interested in this kind of projects can actually reuse the code and create their own versions of the work themselves. Click on any of the images below to see more information about particular image.
