Nice graphics. Nice color scheme. A budget-required one-style-only solution that will nonetheless remain interesting for the consumer.

Nice jar design and an unexpected color selection for the carrier make this a standout piece. The total scheme gives the product a special, premium feel that I'd probably pay extra for.

Great design makes the user (customer) feel something when they encounter it - whether it be graphics or the built environment. The "Off the Leaf" design concept is effective because it directly engages the consumer in the process of completing the design as they select their own cup+sleeve combo.
A simple idea, but how many people will become return customers, just so they can try out the various color options? This is a thoughtful concept executed with a nice color palette to boot.

I believe I posted something about this project sometime in the last year. Now, there's an entire book devoted to telling the story about how the L!brary Initiative in New York City has developed.
It's a great project dedicated to the refurbishment of libraries in the New York City public school system. Pentagram teamed with various artists to make these spaces into inspirational works of art. Click the link and read some of the articles written about the project. Let's hope there are more like it in the future, and across the country.

I still don't know why anyone uses Aol., but I appreciate what they've done with the new identity concept. It's fun, clever, and has endless possibilities for the future. And some of these images are striking, to say the least.
h/t: Thanks to Brand New for keeping us all in the loop!

Yes. Some people are amazingly talented...in crafts it would never occur to me to attempt. As a bonus, this poster by Yulia Brodskaya seems an appropriate welcome to spring. Very nice work!

Inspiring, vibrant educational environments need not cost a lot of money. This new work by Pentagram illustrates how a little creativity and the thoughtful use of color can transform the halls of academia into an engaging experience. Let's hope that a few school administrators across the country take note...
