A Friend of Mine {Melbourne}

Awesome agencies

With so much great design work in their portfolio, I found myself having to restrain from filling this page right up. A Friend of Mine have an envious selection of work on their site, however it’s their great use of typefaces and customizing letter forms that make them really stand out. Lead by the talented Suzy Tuxen, AFOM are not afraid of getting their hands dirty and actually crafting things, making beautiful work out of […]

Oneighty {Burnley}

Awesome agencies

From the love of screen printing their own marketing material to the fine quality they deliver for their actual client Oneighty seems to have found the right balance. This Burnley outfit off a very comprehensive portfolio with excellence across every medium they seem to put their hands to. Tw. @Oneighty_studio

Andy Taray {Akron, Oh}

Outstanding individuals

Continuing our entirely incidental theme of inspiring creatives-that-were-inspired-by-eighties-cartoon-heroes {see Jimmy Turrell and his fondness of Thundercats}, He-Man lovin’ design chap Andy Taray, aka Ohio Boy, held his Apple mighty mouse aloft and declared “he had the power.” And by the power of greyskull he was right. He had the power to produce a body of work just sweet enough to make even Skeletor blush. Enough tenuous introductories, behold… Tw. @ohioboydesign  

Mr. Henry {Antwerp}

Awesome agencies

On discovery of this agency I am strangely hypnotized, transfixed you might say, Mr. Henry on first glace is the playful portfolio of some fresh face all excited and energized, embarking on its first steps into the world of design. Don’t get me wrong, not a nativity at all but more of praise, admiration as Mr. Henry has managed to maintain that love and passion that can get lost amongst those less inspiring jobs, to […]

National Forest {Glendale, CA}

Awesome agencies

This creative consultancy has quite the impressive list of clients and work to boot. The fun loving guys at National Forest have helped create some iconic cultural brands and don’t look like they are stopping anytime soon… never has the phrase work hard, play hard rang truer if their blog is anything to go by.

Graphic Thought Facility {London}

Awesome agencies

Graphic Thought Facility are an agency with a strong pedigree in design both through the clients in their portfolio and from those who work at GTF. Worth spending some time looking at their way-finding, exhibitions and the creation of some icon brands.

Anagrama {México}

Awesome agencies

A lot of thought and care goes into every brand that the boutique agency Anagrama create. Focusing on beautifully crafted marks that empower their clients, Anagrama’s work produces well managed and positioned brands. Their blog also makes for interesting reading. Tw. @anagramastudio

Åh {London}

Awesome agencies / Illustrators

London based but most certainly Scandinavian through and through, the pair of Johanna Lundberg and Elin Svensson have established an agency where thoughtful ideas meet functional, purely simple design executions. Åh aim to both reach out to your head and your heart and from their own beautiful website to the work featured on it, we think they’ve achieved that. They’re also some pretty handy illustrators too!
