Stuff 4 Designers

German Artist Clemens Behr is prolific in illustration, installation and sculpture. His installations BLOW MY MIND. They really are incredible, intricate structures, lots of intersecting planes, complex geometry and mind bending gravity, I can’t tell up from down in them and can only imagine how it must feel to actually visit one! He adds another [...]

A collection of icon resources for e-commerce design. Plenty of cart, basket and credit card icons and more in these icon sets.

Miss Van is a widely known, respected and sometimes controversial graffiti artist. She hails from France and enjoys a high profile across Europe owing to both prolific exhibitions and graffiti. I first came across her work in final year of college and loved her curvy, sexy, attitude-laden women and her provocative style of painting. They [...]

I was going to showcase an Irish artist (for the day that’s in it) today, but I changed my original plan for today’s Thursday Talent following the terrifying and heartbreaking events in Japan over the past week. Kenichi Hoshine was born in Japan and now is resident of NYC.  Very selflessly he is auctioning off [...]

Typography on the web has been a trend which has been building slowly and steadily but it is set to take centre stage in 2011 as the technology and resources are finally here to support it. With the battle of @font-face finally settled and the advent of web typography finally upon us, web designers now [...]

Another favourite of mine, Chris Judge‘s images are somewhat iconic in the Irish design and illustration scene.  Judge’s characters are instantly recognisable.  His work is extremely polished, well finished and full of personality.  He can be the epitome of cool (see polo-necked dudes above) or whimsical and playful (mad gumball machine for example).  Besides his [...]
