Salinas Lasheras Identity
Wednesday, 31st August 2011
I love this identity by Face, based in San Pedro, Mexico. The team have created a stunning mark, which also tessellates as a background image. It's sleek and simple, but has a lot of impact. Salinas Lasheras describe themselves as neo architects, which seems to be a rather archaic term to describe the company's ultra modern buildings.
I'm still trying to work out the relevance of the bee. At first sight, this identity lends itself to a high-end honey product, an already flooded market at the moment. However, maybe it has more of a reference to the idea of the hive and how bees create their environments diligently, using strong structural elements. Yeah... that sounds good. Either way, nice forms and sharp colours. Big thumbs up Face.

Computer for sale
Sunday, 05th June 2011

My computer is for sale for any budding designers out there. Or just people who appreciate a well designed piece of technology! Ok, so it's a bit retro now. But it adds style to any room or office. It has had one careful female owner! Although used, it has been lovingly looked after and cared for and still comes in its box. There is an original wireless keyboard, but unfortunately, not the original mouse. It comes without the mouse, unless you would like me to include a replacement wired mouse at no extra cost. Please let me know upon purchase.
I have restored the factory settings so it is already to go when you get it. The screen has a matt finish but is bright and shows up colours very well. Would make a lovely home computer and easy to use for children as well. I will be sad to see it go, but unfortunately there is nowhere for it to go in my new home.
Bid for it on Ebay now!
