These guys are young, cool, hip, renegade indy-rock designers. Think Keanu Reeves before "The Matrix." River Phoenix before the Viper Room. Their backgrounds include Electronic Media, Chicago Institute of the Arts, and smoking in high school. They are very, very, MAC. They will forgive PCers, but cannot condone your behavior. We'd like to meet these guys -- but not in a dark alley. Which is what they keep suggesting.... More
Steele is a 24 year old designer with a very minimal and witty edge to his work. He hails from Australia and has at a young age already worked on various projects across advertising, print and the Web. To say we are impressed with his work is a little bit of an understatement. This is the kind of work that defines what design should be; short, sweet and with a smirk. We already can't wait to see what he comes up with next.... More
Just as 'rough copy' is a metaphor for the design process... accordingly, this studio team of two graphic designers take their clients on a thorough journey of creating many rough copies eventually arriving at some great solutions.

After years of keeping his silence and hiding behind a holding page (something we can all relate to), Christian Layugan has just reloaded his portfolio site and removed his trusted mask a 7 year old splash screen. So finally, for all to see naked for the first time in public, a collection of all the work produced by this now much older and wiser senior designer from Sydney, Australia. Currently he is working at Soap Creative, who do a large chunk of work for 20th Century Fox, and lectures part time at Billy Blue College of Design.... More
Primarily an exhibition artist, Evan Hecox has a smallish portfolio, but the pieces that form his online presence are tight. This guy knows what he's doing. The messages are rich and well balanced, although its sometimes difficult to know exactly what Mr. Hecox is trying to sell. Frankly, we find this a refreshing and novel situation in the current land of graphic art.... More
EAMO is a fantastic Australian illustrator whose work has a certain funky realism that we find very attractive. In this new online 'folio, this Aussie art child shows us more than one style—ranging from cartoonish kids to saucy sex bombs with haunting dark, mysterious eyes. Appropriately, these 20 pages of illustrations are all presented on the side of an illustrated milk carton—which in the U.S.A. had at one time been a space reserved for showing pictures of missing children....

An engrossing showcase of photo-illustrated design, wispy graphics, explosive compostions and the random skull, graffiti tag, or rainbow next to a beautiful model. Sure it's trendy, and nothing you haven't really seen before... or is it? On closer inspection, the work of Drew Flaherty goes an extra step, breathing in more detail into each inch of design, and producing a rich tapestry of different styles that together evoke quite a beautiful, mystical quality. Who needs substance when you can have visual satisfaction and a lingering emotion that makes you think, je ne sais quoi? There are nuggets in this mountain of multidiscipliary work... you just have to dig deeper.... More
