A yearly art injection by the kind people at The Necessary Stage and M1. In 2010, the theme “Art & The Law” was illuminated further by the conscious use of black bars on selected texts depicting censorship. These programme booklets were printed on bulky wood-free stock to replicate academic papers.

Here is a site by plate for Wild Advertising. Had a chance to speak to them and asked them to provide a fun fact prior to this whole project.
The brief was for us to create a website design that is able to capture the company’s culture, has to be relatively timeless and easy to use. It should also project an image of professionalism without coming accross as boring or nondescript.Adhering to the company’s existing corporate Identity, the website is predominantly kept to a greyscale palette. This gives it a rather business like setting, but to counter this air of seriousness, we turned to the use of simple hand-drawn animation to inject some fun and quirkyness to the website. For example, if the cursor is left alone for a short while, it gets attacked. Afterall, its in WILD territory!
Fun Fact:
After creating quite a few hand drawn, frame by frame animated sequences for the mouse ‘death’ sequences, I was a bit drained and worried that I may not make the deadline if this were to go on (its a very time consuming process!)… So to decided to turn off the lights in one of the sections and use sound effects of different types of screams to continue telling the story. In the darkness, its totally up to the user’s own imagination to guess what have happened to their mouse cursor.
I’m glad the website is getting some attention because the clients have been very supportive along the way. They basically left their trust in me and I’m happy to have been able to deliver a product that they absolutely adore:)

An interior design project by Asylum.
Inspired by the hurried state of development that is Shanghai, we wanted to design the BBH office as a catalyst for social commentary. The resulting space has a raw and always-under-construction design language that echoes the city’s mood. Big bold maps of BBH international offices were splashed on cabinets to bring the work areas to life. The meeting rooms were designed to resemble half torn-down houses with different rooms themed to simulate an actual apartment’s living space, kitchen, child’s room and even bathroom!
Thanks Cheryl for the images!

Remember
He’s gone, but I still think of him. What he left behind evokes memories of his touch, his smell. I am torn between remembering him and forgetting him.

Eley Kishimoto’s collaboration with Singaporean design publishers Work has resulted in another unique Werk edition. The new offering is made of real fabric prints, sketches and patterns created by the fashion designers…
For Werk No. 17, the latest in a series of bespoke publishing ventures from Work, Eley Kishimoto offer a glimpse into their working philosophy and their penchant for prints and patterns.
Each edition of the new issue uses archive Eley Kishimoto materials in a slightly different way, so that no two are exactly the same. A bundle of four fabrics on both the front and back of the book act as its cover, with the back four folding over the spine and secured to the front with staples and dress making pins, mimicking, say Work, “a textile work-in progress”.
