Luis Blanco and Michael Uman two wild and funny guys! They are the warped brains behind the award-winning design and concept studio INTERspectacular. Mostly focusing on character development, and motion branding, they are the creative force behind Comedy Central's recent network identity redesign—in which they introduced edgy MTV-esque interstitials and station IDs. Meaning, they basically get to cut loose and design the craziest stuff they can imagine. Today, they are creating print and broadcast projects for some of the world's most engaging brands, from Volvo to Virgin Mobile.... More
Graphic designer, art director and illustrator based in Buenos Aires, Pablo has a unique style and an amusing eye, dabbling in a little bit of everything since 2000. His range of talents include identity design, brand creation, website design, print pieces, tv shows, and all kinds of other aesthetic creations. Friend of the people and the animals, Pablo has a natural talent for typography - especially visible in his modern, and youthful graphic identity designs.... More
A clean, independent graphic design studio founded by Italian design Giovanni Paletta, "juice" exhibits a beautiful attention to typographic detail. The work inside runs the gambit from corporate identity to album illustrations and artistic collages — all of which showcase a very pure and precise design execution. Design like a breath of fresh air makes want to take a big gulp, and hold it.... More
From old school to new school, wildstyle and completely abstract, graffiti writers have always been the frontier explorers of the alphabet. Which is why their work translates so nicely into graphic design and typography. ReOne is by no means any exception... he is one of the trailblazers who still "gets up", whether it be with spray paint or oil paint, on canvas, brick or screen. We love the digital and hand-drawn lettering variations, and his wild experiments in color and abstract forms in his art and design work. Re's blazing work is rich, fresh, and truly unique in character.... More
Based in Utrecht/Amsterdam (the Netherlands) Anothercompany is a very interesting art, fashion and communications design firm founded by Joachim Baan. We were blown away the polished design work and fascinating range of projects. Each development has multiple layers of meaning and delves deeply into the marriage of form and function. The result is a collection of crisp graphics, professional design and art work that leave us simply... envious. Hurrah for Dutch design!... More
We like to call him the man of 1,000 type-faces, Hydro74 is a type treatment wizard who can bring the bling to any combination of letters, from A-Z. Mostly freelancing for a number of companies at this point, Hydro's work runs the gambit from magazine photo-illustrations to apparel designs, records sleeves and much, much more. His edgy hand-drawn treatments and graphic stylizations are highly sought after, and can be seen in publications and on clothing around the nation.... More
Very refreshing and larger than life, this full-on Flash portfolio is the home of multidiscipliary designer Nessim Higson. Multidisciplinary; that means he rocks at print as much as he does at new media work... and typography, and t-shirts, and posters, and identities, and well... pretty much everything! All the work is really progressive, using hand-drawn fonts and type—some with collage assembly, but some with clean and contemporary designs that are sophisticated, yet bursting with color and composition. We really enjoy this innovative, unique and randomized presentation.... More
Just getting back from vacation, we at DT are proud to punctuate this week with a solid portfolio post — the graphic design work of young Katja Schweiker from Germany shows a sopisticated control of the grid and application of typography. Her work is mainly print-based and her "playground" shows an experimental (rougher) side than the clean portfolio may suggest — the site itself is developed by Kai Heuser of Heuserkampf [external link]....

In a very simple, bare site we are introduced to the bold, full-on, contemporary typography of Non-Format. Non is a two-man creative team comprising Kjell Ekhorn (Norwegian) and Jon Forss (British) who work on a range of print projects fueled by their art direction, design and illustration for the music industry. But when they are not designing CD covers, they are equally involved in art, culture, fashion and advertising projects. We really liked their bold typography and typographic art... the online home of "chunky-modern" type.... More
Konst & Teknik is a sharp print studio based in Stockholm, Sweden, and founded by design duo Mattias Jakobsson and Peter Ström. The site is quite minimal, but there's a bunch of functionality behind the scenes of this "blank" canvas. Once you begin to understand the nav system, you're going to be impressed by the clean and innovative design work. You can tell this duo really considers the art of design and addresses the conceptual ideas for each project... and as a result, the output is a beautiful marriage of design, typography and smart thinking – pleasantly presented in this minimal web portfolio....

Zaum Think is a tight little boutique agency with a passion for branding, print design, identity and website design. Their compact portfolio is marked primarily by a large number of print projects, of which many have a beautiful minimal appearance and clean presentation. On a side note, we did post their creative apparel site ZAUM in our webgallery last year—and in the same vein as their apparel boutique, the design studio work has that ephemeral appeal of an unique hand-crafted experience....

Whether it be communication design, corporate campaigns, film, book design or stamps, Jung and Pfeffer (a small firm of about 10 people and two offices) is one of the top graphic design firms in Bremen and Amsterdam. This well-awarded agency has talent, smarts and great graphic design work under its belt... as they should, since both of the partners are professors of design (Eckhard Jung - visual design at HfG, Karlsruhe, and Florian Pfeffer - communication design at College of Art, Bremen). They delicately and professionally treat each one of their projects as "treasures", and the output shows a rich and refined graphic and contemporary sensibility that looks to the future at every opportunity. Great work.... More
