HEAD CASE? HEADSPACE!



This is the brochure for head space that, believe it or not, I found at the "HS" head quarters! The two images to the left are actually printed on one piece of card. As a brochure it's not only suppose to advertise it's self but also inform about its services. on the second page is a strong grid organization of the information- it's easy to read and informative....
I really like the photography on the first image, that diffused colour against the really vibrant hue (green in this case). I like the casual font that says: "what's in your headspace?". Nice bubble writing.

poster art in hyper magazine


This is an article cover in HYPER (an Australian gaming magazine). It was made to attract attention for the article, which I think it does really well, because it uses that "less is more" idea behind it.
I scanned this image because it strongly reminds me of early modern design in it's diagonal axis solid design.
THE typography is a very casual one and it goes really well the bold illustrations (I'm sure the alien in the center is of Space invaders!).....

samurai champloo T-shirt tag



I found this tag connected to that samurai champloo T-shirt I sometimes wear....and as you can see I got it from the wonderful (most of the time) MADMAN otaku wear...
the GENEON logo is the anime publishers. I thought it looked cool so I kept it.
IT'S FUNCTION is to... err.. conect to the tag? I'm not sure, I think it's probally there as a form of branding.
THE DESIGN has a chaotic feel about it, which is what attracted my attention about this peice. The illustration line work is done in rough pencil and the font is almost a grunge font. The images weight is all in the lower right-hand corner. There's a strong weight contrast.
