Bupa

Loving the simplicity of the Bupa adverts at the moment. A gentle way to introduce a complicated, upsetting topic using bold colours and basic graphics. It says all the initial information in small chunks so it is easier for the audience to digest and come to terms with.

Katie Sokoler: Color Me Katie

Absolutely loving the bright, colour work of Katie Sokoler. Enough to put a smile on anyone's face and brighten up any day. Small colourful installations to inject a bit of fun into people's days have made a huge impact. Lifted my mood today straight away when I saw this, consider this as an approach to take for my current project? I think so...!

From Keetra: Photobooth

A stunning piece of work fromKeetra. I think it's a really interesting, artistic way to try and communicate people's personalities and thoughts - something I could really apply to my current project. These images were made through an installation where people would enter, pose for two shots, and leave. The outcome would end up like these examples depending on the person and create a playful way of analysing people. Lovely piece of work. More examples can be found here.

Rethink Scholarship

This video demonstration is great! I love the interactivity and thought process that has gone behind it to advertise scholarships, it's motivating and inspirational and makes me want to produce something like that too. The video shown above is the call for 2010 entries. More examples can be found here.

Tim George

This is a book about finding inspiration by Tim George. I found I related to it as it's exactly how I'm feeling at the moment! I have the enthusiasm behind my work, I'm just trying to find some inspiration from somewhere to push me in the right direction, this gave me a kick start. The layout is somewhat different to 'normal' books which also created an impact for the reader. Good work, I like it.

Helmo

This poster grabbed me because of the overlaying colours. I can imagine this as lots of mixed conversations, something I am considering applying to my project.

Michael Spoljaric

Loving the pure simplicity of this piece. Who said design had to be complicated? Note to remember. The work of Michael Spoljaric. Looks like he's been mega busy working for Nike! Plenty more examples of his work on his website. You can tell what sport it represents and all you need is a pair of feet and a glimpse of the legs. Really good stuff.

Alexandre Farto: Scratching the Surface

Came across this artist called Alexandre Farto aka Vhils on itsnicethat.com, and thought his work was amazing. More of his work can be found at http://alexandrefarto.com.

This triggered an image I remember seeing around London during the summer, which I photographed because I thought it was such an eye catching piece of art to be in the environment I was in...But is it the same person?
