Pedestrian-centric posters of Amsterdam.

dutchposter.jpg Jarr Geerligs' Flickr Collection of Amsterdam Posters is an excellent document of recent posters dotting the city of Amsterdam. For those of us stuck in the car dominated USA blandscape of ad-man/corporate dictated design, it is heartening to see that someone out there gets it.

Tokyo Stimulus Maximus: Lester & Marxy

shanemarxy.jpgShane Lester is one of the amazing folks behind WKTokyoLab. His blog also betrays an intellect and sensitivity to design work that is rare amongst foreigners working in Japan.

Marxy is a force to be reckoned with in communicating complex design and marketing ideas to those falling behind the sociolinguistic learning curve.

RoyalArtLodgeTigerStoreBW.jpg

More than meets the eyes.

These are the type of guys that ace foundation year 3D in their sleep. Bonus points for using the theme song from the 1986 Transformers animated movie composed by the influential hair band Lion.
