Tree Visualization est un outil amusant permettant de “mapé” le contenu de vos documents sur votre mac ou votre pc, tel un arbre généalogique. Et ce, d’une manière tant artistique que fonctionnelle.

The Canadian Pulp and Paper pavilion. 1967. obviously.

It’s sad to think that pretty much all of the architecture of the expos 67 in now either in ruin, destroyed or a casino.

December 7th, 2009 by admin

If you love typography like I do, you will love this book about Max Bill!

Max bill considered himself primarily an architect, yet he was also an inventive and tireless creator of type fonts and commercial logos, as well as being a designer with wonderful sense of visual humor. this rich monograph gives max bill fans an extensive and inspiring look at works for which he has received little attention, in the fields of typography, advertising and book design. Today, many people consider Max to be one of the major players of Graphic Design as we know it today.

crayon artwork

December 7th, 2009 by admin

South Korean photographer Yeondoo Jung‘s series Wonderland recreates in his own way the fantastic euphoria of young children’s crayon artwork.

The gallery that showed the series a few years back explains how Jung executed his vision:
[The series] presents costumed adolescents posing in sets based as closely as possible on children’s drawings. He collaborates with many people to bring to life the boundless imagination in the drawings. For four months, Jung oversaw art classes in four kindergartens in Seoul and collected 1,200 drawings by children between the ages of five and seven. After pouring through them, he carefully selected 17 drawings and interpreted their meanings. Then he recruited 60 high school students by passing out handbills at their schools in which he invited them to act out the scenarios in the children’s drawings. In order to recreate faithfully drawing details such as dresses with uneven sleeves or buttons of different sizes, he convinced five fashion designers to custom make the clothing for the photo shoot. He also made props unlike any scale found in reality but similar to those in the drawings.
