Akzidenz Grotesk Friday

More Akzidenz Grotesk, this time from Berlin based SV Associates.
Their work is absolutely fantastic.
Definitely check out the signage they designed for the Art Museum in Cottbus and the gorgeous Cluster Book they designed for choreographer, Sasha Waltz. I’m going to finish this post by saying that I feel so damn inspired; I hope you feel the same way too, it’s only Friday after all ![]()
Have a great weekend people. I’ll be back on Monday with an Update on the Cinematypography poster
Ken Garland

I was amazed to discover that the legend that is Ken Garland, has an actual site! In order to “celebrate the occasion” I thought I treat you with an exclusive image that I took from one of my design books. Feel free to add it to the FFFFOUND archives and inspire others that have similar taste
Precursor

I only just realised that Precursor Studio is now defunct. They were only open for 5 years, but produced some cracking work during that time. What a shame eh?
The image was in fact taken from one of my many design books. Sometimes its nice to treat SI readers with images that are not available on the web
Departures®

The latest studio to join facebook is none other than the genius that is Departures®. How did I find this out? Well I have my sources don’t I?
I’ve also been told that they are fans of SI which I always love to hear

Hingston

Looks like everyone wants a piece of that talented Siggi Eggertsson chap at the moment; even the folks at Tom Hingston, who have some new/fairly new work on their nice little site
Stylo

Quite a large update from Stylo this week, although I think Mr. Place’s update was bigger ![]()
I actually had an interesting conversation about Stylo the other day with a certain Bob Sakoui. You see, Stylo received credit for a logo that was in fact designed by Mr. Sakoui himself. If you managed to buy the first edition of the Logo book designed by Spin, then look out for the Escape Studios Logo and sure enough, you’ll see the mix-up. Laurence King are in fact releasing a revised version of the book soon.
abc-xyc

Not too much to say about Mr. Julian Morey except that he is the Cats Pajamas when it comes to identity & logo work; his portfolio pretty much says it all! Now you know who was behind the Topshop logo
More More

The work of Studio Moamoa AKA Marko Puclin is quite literally the bollocks of the gods; or for the politically correct: the bees knees. Tip-top Art Direction and Sexy design. Definitely an SI fave which I should have posted months ago
New Fount ;)

Ariel Di Lisio AKA Negro™ is at it again! This time he sent me some examples of his new font “Caracas” in action. Like all his fonts, you can’t buy them; don’t ask me why! But maybe one day he might just change his mind. As they say, patience is a virtue
MultiAdaptor are back

Cheers to Chris Pitney for giving me the heads up about the update over at MultiAdaptor dot com. Expect nothing but top quality brand work from a top UK agency. Let’s face it, your day has been made
