Face

Face are a slick and contemporary Mexican studio that produce work covering the full spectrum which leads to very well rounded resolutions. I particularly like their identity for a digital media group which is clean and adaptable and also the lovely modern poster for the 'Galeria Cafe' which has a beautifully balanced composition of shape, colour and type.














Quadradao

Quadradao is a fantastic contemporary Brazilian graphic design agency. Their work, often driven through simple elements of type, layout and shape along with the application of bold Latin colour gives a fresh but authentic feel to all that they turn their hand to.

BERG

BERG is the British studio behind the awesome Editions of 100 online poster shop and they say they produce work for print, screen and the environment. I've picked out a few of my favourite projects of theirs including some sharp branding/identity for the Alpha clothing store and some nice promotional stuff for photographer Freytag.

Ply Studio

Great rebrand for a film production company by Ply Studio. Love the use of what look like film stills which have been desaturated with type overlaid in either black or white. The only downside being the use of Hell-vetica..

Hey Studio

Hey Studio, based in Barcelona work a lot with bold vector illustrations as well as publications and prints for apparel. I really like digital desktop illustrations that have been made into wallpapers for smart phones.

Las Donias Pasteleria

I'm not really into my web design, but I can still appreciate a great site. And this is definitely one - developed by Argentinian design and direction studio Mind the Grid for a local 'pasteleria' (pastry shop) Las Donias. The Hi-Res photography is stunning and it does the exactly the job it is meant to in that it makes you want to eat everything that you see. The layout is clean and contemporary allowing the main focus to be on the wonderfully colourful cakes and pastries. I think particularly when it comes to designing work for screen, the more image and less text the better. If the photographs are good enough then there shouldn't be much more you need to say.
