Kithkin: Some rights reserved

robertanderson — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 23:10:00 GMT

Kithkin is a group of creative friends who form a platform to show and promote their work. Recently we caught up with them to talk about their new store, which gives away (and also sells) digital blueprints to a wide range of products. Some Rights Reserved lets designers get ideas out directly to the public, on their terms. Designers have greater creative freedom, flexibility, spontaneity, and control over licensing. Consumers are given the chance to purchase design instantly, either printing it out on their own printer or taking the file to a listed supplier for production. www.kith-kin.co.uk

005 - Abstract vs Concrete Logo Design

plasticmind — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 20:36:02 GMT

Today, we get our hands dirty right away. We?re taking the abstract vs. concrete discussion from last episode and putting into practice with a logo for our made-up company MortalCoil. In this episode, we explore using the custom shape tool, the pen tool and working with paths to create an effective logo.

Oh,

Oh, and here?s the new hotness: Museo Sans

Don?t forget that all next week I?ll be designing a real logo for a real client and recording the whole thing so you can follow along.

004 - Abstract vs Concrete

plasticmind — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 08:40:08 GMT

All design (and especially logo design) comes from one of two different approaches: abstract or concrete. Abstract design attempts to capture the emotion of a company, service or product in a way that is not immediately apparent, while concrete design uses a more conventional, literal and direct approach to a design challenge.

If done successfully, abstract design can sometimes be more effective because you create a visceral connection with people in a way that you can?t with straightforward, concrete design. On the other hand, straightforward design doesn?t always capture people?s imaginations or create as strong an emotional connection. Of course, using an abstract approach can be risky because if not done well, people might miss the connection or, worse yet, react negatively to it.

Beginners should begin with concrete design: abstract requires a keen sense of perception and understanding not only where your clients are coming from and how they feel, but also the emotions that your own abstract design generate. Expand, attempt, but probably best not to make these your first gigs.

And the great resource I linked up was the Vector Art Blog?reviews, articles, tutorials, a digital artwork gallery for inspiration, vector brushes, fonts. Definitely a must-bookmark.

Tomorrow: Putting this into practice with our sample company?s logo.

Design 2

Microcinema — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 21:26:01 GMT

Re-think the 20th century through six design concepts that shaped our history. The Bookworm, Concorde, Conica coffeemaker, Leica camera, Eames lounge chair, and Vespa scooter not only reflect the era that produced them but they also anticipated the future. DESIGN 2 explores the development and concept of each of these archetypal products while examining the larger social context. Combining archival images and film excerpts with music, this companion documentary to our earlier release DESIGN(DV94245), outlines the social, political, and cultural climate in which each item was invented. Using a contemporary style and narration, DESIGN 2 is hip, fun, and informative.
