I love this logo. It does what a logo should. Says all it needs to in the motif. If the words 'Royal Parks' were not there, it would still say Royal Parks. Apparently Moon Branding and Communication were behind this gem in 1994. Another one of those that you look at and think, I wish I had come up with that!

I love these masks by AJ Fosik. The colours and the sharp shapes remind me of some of the murals I saw around the temples in Thailand.

"AJ Fosik's eclectic handmade and intricately designed wood animal sculptures and paintings, combined with cryptic symbols, intrigue and provoke. Fosik creates an experience that at first glance evokes a questioning of familiar concepts and then pushes the viewer to look and think deeper. Inspired by subversive cultural influences which shift complacency, he creates pieces that suspend comfort while at the same time offer recognizable symbols and images. In this dynamic tension the art and the viewer hopefully come together in an expanded definition of culture and assumption." - quoted from Fosik's biography on jonathanlevinegallery.com

“Brown is a small confectioner’s shop in Bogotá that’s always used kraft board boxes to pack their products. They wanted a new corporate image and a simple and low budget solution to identify what’s inside them. Bogotá, Colombia design firm Lip Ltda came up with a series of cards and stamps that carry the information simply and succinctly.”

I love how they have kept costs down here by producing rubber stamps to spice up regular brown boxes. The effect is crafty and handmade, but keeps all their packaging on brand at next to nothing. Some good ideas here for a low budget up and coming project I have.
