Ok, I’ve plugged this on my Facebook and my Twitter, and I’ll more than likely be cracking it on my personal blog too (not that anyway reads that shite), but I just had to post this on here too. In the midst of New Blood and other end of year shows I feel bad for not posting about any students. But this is too good.
It’s like someone has looked inside my mind and picked out my ideal look, feel and way of creating typography. That’s right, it’s all hand rendered. Anyway enough of the arse licking, go watch this video and make yourself feel inferior like I do right now.
My friend Freya is interning at The Museum Of Everything, and after reading her blog I came across this. Sounds like sweet deals.
CALLING THE UNTRAINED, UNINTENTIONAL & UNSEEN CREATORS OF GREATER BRITAIN.
Are you a marginal or self-taught artist? Have you received a divine calling to depict strange new worlds?Are you an artist with a disability, whose creativity has been undeservedly overlooked? Or a collector with a cache of anonymous doodlings?

Get on it people.
Just Us. is probably the best resource about at the moment for promoting up and coming design and illustration students in the UK. There’s far too much talent on display, some of which have been showcased on SSZ. There is also a tasty little shop up on the site to buy loads of goodies, and an alumni section, promoting the best of last years graduates from the collective.
Expect some more projects coming soon, and hopefully another collective exhibition after the success of the job centre themed event at KK outlet last year.
It’s that time again. Apart from sorting out my own degree show, I took a minute out to watch the very solumn viral from the guys at Nottingham Trent to advertise their Graphic Design degree show this year. Take a minute yourself, it’s nice and relaxing. VIMEO!
Craig and his team of vis/ressers have gone and done it again, made an awesome little publication that showcases the best in upcoming talent. If you haven’t got one, I strongly recommend you go and buy one right now, they won’t be around for long, and they will form a nice collection when future issues come out.
Grey Matter is an online super store created by 3rd year Graphic Design and Illustration students over at Staffordshire University. They have all produced designs around the theme of Black & White, and most are available to buy on a shirt, as a tote bag or as a print! Get over there and buy something. Now. They need funds for their degree show! Keep your eyes peeled for new designs being added everyday.
3rd year Graphic Design student Matt Whiteley has updated his already brilliant portfolio. I’d best step my game up if I’ve got to compete with the likes of this chap in 5 months time!
Are you guys as nerdy as I am when it comes to a nice bit of typography? Do you have another person in your life who would just love a type-led compliment this Valentines day? Head over to the newly opened HmBM shop and pick yourself up a card, or four, for that special person, part of the Just My Type range. Also keep your eyes peeled for more splendid graphic ephemera in the coming months!
William Hibberd, the gentleman behind Just Us. and JADB has updated his portfolio site, which is very nice indeed.
These have been here for a while, but they are remarkable. An interesting insight to see how design trends come, go, then come back again. I’ve seen some exact copies of these 1970’s logos around today, although I’m not going to name names…
Canadian born and New York based Ed has some awesome work, including this real clever illustration for Spot The Tiger.
Some great work from a really hard working 3rd year student, Alex Farrall.
