Josef Albers Shrine 1942 Zinc plate lithograph, 330 x 314 mm The Josef and Anni Albers Foundation

Nice juxtaposition between the older logotype and the new brand direction

“Founded in 1829 in Brussels, Delvaux is the oldest fine leather luxury goods company in the world. Base was asked to develop and identity update on the occasion of Delvaux’s 175th anniversary presenting the brand as classic yet contemporary. Starting with the Delvaux logo elements (crown, typeface, date), we created a system of patterns and sublogos. We rejuvenated the look and feel of the campaigns’ art direction and incorporated the tagline Today.” (via September Industry)

A Soap Dispenser Alternative by Nathalie Staempfl

Not only is this design visually interesting, but there are ecological benefits to using block soap instead of liquid. Blocks of soap are more concentrated, contain less water and easier to stack and transport. Also, instead of plastic bottles, a bar of soap can be packaged in paper.

Music. Dance. Clock.

There is a nice balance of music and video on this promo site for the Japanese clothing store Uniqlock. I also appreciate that they focus on establishing the brand and showing-off the clothes, instead of trying to do too many things on the page.
