I have a huge crush on Reeta Ek, the Helsinki-based artist who you may know from her work for Marimekko. I love her print work just as much as her textile designs, and would happily display any of them on my walls or my body.
Christopher DeLorenzo creates simple, bold illustrations and designs. As a one man studio based out of Massachusetts, he creates editorial illustration, branding development, advertising, packaging, fashion, and the list goes on. Bring some of his art into your space by checking out his shop and picking up a print or three.
Michael Nÿkamp‘s collection of mid-century modern homes captures what so many of us love about that genre of architecture. Clean lines and no fuss with simple black lined graphics on a light grey background. Nÿkamp continues adding to this project as well as taking commissions to illustrate other mid-century homes and buildings.
I grew up as an only child activities that I could do on my own were kind of a staple, and memory games were one of those things for sure. I’ve added this grownup, graphic take on the classic featuring fluorescent, Risograph print-inspired patterns by Sigrid Calon to my game collection at home. The cube holds 52 paired cards and works as a design-savvy gift, mental challenge, and beautiful art object.
I’m happy to start sharing more graphic design projects here on Design Crush, if you’ve been following us since the beginning in 2007 you know it used to be a big part of our content. Today it’s something I haven’t been able to stop thinking about – a job for Designer Fund by Moniker. Designer Fund is an investment group committed to design-led companies who needed a set of posters for their Bridge Speaker Series that invites legends such as John Bielenberg, Wilson Miner, and Julie Zhuo to speak on a range of topics from design leadership to future design trends. To contrast the digital nature of the talks, Moniker utilized the tactility of paper and created abstract forms to convey key ideas from each lecture.
