Irina Blok took on a challenge of redesigning condom packaging to get out the message of protecting your junk. Here was the challenge:
"We are looking for a Next Generation Condom that significantly preserves or enhances pleasure, in order to improve uptake and regular use. Additional concepts that might increase uptake include attributes that increase ease-of-use for male and female condoms, for example better packaging or designs that are easier to properly apply."
She wanted to answer the challenge of reinventing condoms from a graphic design perspective. Perhaps the biggest problem with condoms is the boring packaging, and not the actual product. Creating compelling artwork could encourage people around the world to actually use these." This is how Irina Blok announced to take Bill Gates up on his challenge to design the 'next generation condoms' by redesigning packaging. What do you think?
There is something about
Illustrations that always find a spot of interest in my love for art. The rich dark color tones and the imagination of others.
UK based illustrator
Luke Twyman has sparked my interest with the release of some of his new illustrations that I like to think have a winter/snow midnight type feel to them. These icy landscapes have a texture to them that gives an almost calming and silent feel and I look forward to seeing more work by Twyman.

Daily shape is (yet another) daily project by (yet another) designer Jac (jacinabox) and she has been creating random shapes every day for the past 3 months now. There are a few restrictions placed on this daily project, and they are…
- Only basic shapes and patterns.
- Must take less than 10 minutes to create.
- No frills, vectors, textures, gradients or other fancy business.
Matthew Olin is the creator behind this series of
Superhero Typographic Posters for his MFA Thesis Exhibition back in 2011. Here is what he had to say about this series.
"The most distinguishing factor of any font is its characters. Hidden beneath these characters, each typeface also has character—its own unique characteristics. However classified this information may seem, when used correctly, typefaces often speak to us more powerfully than the words that are written with them."
What I like most about these posters is the definition of the use of the font but it also goes along with each character that is being designed. I have only added a few see the rest here on
Behance.
Came across some of
Matthew DiVito a.k.a Mr. Div work on
iso50 and had to share some of them. It's like you get lost in the animated motion .gifs and it seems like I'm not the only one. I only added some that I thought were awesome but check out his site to see more.
