I’ve recently landed a project for a user interface design of an iPhone application. I can’t say too much about it at the moment, but have started the project off with some research on some nature inspired iPhone/iPad icons.
Using one of my favourite sites, Dribbble, I found the following icons. One or two of them aren’t actually icons, but are still serving as some awesome inspiration. Enjoy!
Starbucks has received a great deal of press so far in 2011, so we’re sure there is absolutely no need for an introduction, but we’re going to give you one anyway.
The brand was founded in Seattle back in 1971. The store is the biggest and leading coffee shop/retailer in the world, with over 16,000 stores worldwide. A basic introduction? Yes. But we think it sums up their success well.
The reason behind the press is one you’re probably familiar with already; a logo change, which just so happened to hit the internet like a baseball bat to a ball – the news was everywhere we looked! Although a somewhat minor change, it was an extraordinarily brave and confident move by the leading coffee retailer, removing all text from their identity, proving how far this company has come in its 40 years of existence.
In this article we are taking a look at the new identity. Not just the logo itself, but the fresh packaging, products and website that came along with the branding change, all of which was/is in aid of Starbucks 40th Anniversary that occurred on the 7th of March, 2011.
Recently I’ve had an idea of putting together a small staple-bind magazine (or “zine” as they’re commonly referred as). I want to give print design a bit of a bash.
I want to be able to hold something beautiful that I created in my own hands, and send them out to my followers as something to help inspire them with their work, so in this post I’ve collected a few examples of things I really like. I thought I’d share them with you, and hopefully get your advice, too.
Picmix Store, for those that don’t know, is a part of the Circlebox Network (you can read more about that here). It sells limited edition (and rather awesome) prints.
Recently I have been taking a movie poster approach on the site (although the store is still open for just about any submission, movie related or not). In this post are a few of my favourite minimalistic movie prints that we’re currently selling; and there are a bunch more on their way!
Why hello there! It has been months since posting here. If you’re reading this, you’ve probably noticed there has been a huge change; a new theme, from the great WooThemes (really great company, by the way!).
Circlebox Blog is now going to be the main place I post my work in progress shots (for feedback, mainly) as well as short design process posts. Don’t fear though, I’ll also be writing the odd tutorial and article, and realising some other goodies along the way. Basically, it’s going to be the company blog to my company Circlebox Creative – so expect some news, too. Oh, and before I forget, I’ll also be writing editorials about the latest poster/print releases at the latest addition to the Circlebox Network, Picmix Store – a store dedicated to high-quality posters and prints. So keep an eye on this space for exclusive deals.
