I stumbled upon this wonderful set of poster designs by Alex Varanese today, and I just had to share them in case you haven’t seen them before! The idea behind the series of posters was in response to a question: “What would you do if you could travel back in time?”. The designers response was recreate all the modern technology we have now in 2011, but restyle it so it fit in with technology style back in the 70′s. I hope you enjoy looking at these as much as I did!

Awesome Snowboard Design Inspiration
As a former avid snowboarder, I used to love tearing up the mountains all over the West Coast when I lived in Seattle. I’d take my K2 Fat Bob and travel all the way from Whistler, British Columbia down to the beautiful mountains in California and Utah just for the thrill of grinding powder. Now that I live in the south, fat chance that I get to snowboard at all, let alone see great powder to board on. If you’ve never been snowboarding or skiing before, I definitely recommend it, get learning how to ski now, you won’t regret it. There’s no better way to get away from the computer screen!

Nature Inspired iPhone & iPad App Icons
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!
A look at Starbucks new 2011 logo identity, packaging design and website
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.
