LOOK AT THESE!

I highly suggest everyone look at all of these posters, for this is the reason that design is respected and such an impact on every day life. Designer's take messages that people may ignore or are uneducated about and make that in-your-face-obvious so that you cannot ignore it's purpose, while at the same time admire its design. Designers, such as the ones behind some of these posters, are meant to inspire and emphasize. This poster for example does an amazing job of translating it's message - which is obviously the problem of pollution and the fact that people ignore it. It's this reason I got into design and it's this reason that the world needs it.

Webpage Spectacular

Those who can make webpages well know what will make a great success and how it's done. One could take the most boring, mundane company on the planet and turn it into an explosively entertaining company through a proper webpage. As long as all the information is there to learn I think designers should continue to take extreme risks with webpage design. Webpage design is one of those fields where taking risks and pushing the boundaries isn't as scary as say a new advertisement campaign. Everyone on the internet enjoys a groundbreaking site because it makes the company, information, etc. a lot more fun!

Cool Cards

I think that well thought out business cards are one of the most intriguing and effective pieces of design. Anyone can get a blank white business card with some information printed off and handed out but the majority of people will eventually throw it away and forget about it; however well thought out designs are kept as almost novelty pieces of art. Making a business card interactive, interesting and memorable, evidently makes the business itself memorable in the consumers mind. View more cards at the link below.

Get That Sloff!

This is a commercial for a line of handbags called Sloff. This commercial is a terrific piece of design and animation. It plays on a black and white colour scale mixed with a variety of animals collaborating their pace with the soundtrack. This commercial does two things specifically great: 1) It's an interesting piece that provides a brief but understandable story line to the product and 2) It's well enough designed that a viewer would pass the commercial on such as I am right now - further advertising the company.

Shave To The Man!

These advertisement's are a treat to look at and definitely inspire purchase. The idea behind the advertisement design takes a spin on old jokes (upside down chin) and turns it into an effective ad that does more to advertise the company than the product. What I mean by this is that even though it is obviously advertising the razor it affects a viewer in a more emotional sense than practical sense. Taking a look at this ad definitely provokes laughter and the appreciation for such. If a potential customer appreciates the ad they're more likely to buy the product. These ads are witty and whimsical and show that the company can have fun so people like to relate to that and it ultimately builds trust.

Are You Gunna Pay For That?

These barcodes are the design genius of D-Barcode who create these pieces for mostly Japanese clientele. They create these barcode designs to entice possible customers into wanting that product not only for the product but to show the barcode off as an interesting aspect - and lets be serious, wouldn't you buy it?!

One of these little beauties goes for $1,500 dollars for the design and $200 a year for licensing. You can also get a custom design done for around $4000.

Personally I think this design is brilliant as far as application, practicality and interest. It serves every purpose and more because it gives a product a leg up on every other product on the shelf. People will buy products for interesting pieces and good stories and this barcode provides both.

The Coolest Adverts Ever

These advertisements are some of the most innovative designs I've ever seen. If I was talking on the street and saw these it would actually motivate me to buy their product then and there it's just that effective! From truck designs to bag designs some serious thinking went into these. When this kind of thought is put into advertisements it makes them a pleasure to look at and a good story to tell. Graphic Design equivalents of Superbowl commercials, cool.

LOOK AT THE REST OF THESE, YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED
