Zaum Think

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....

WSDIA WeShouldDoItAll

Taking their name in part from a quote by a famous science fiction writer, WSDIA (We Should Do It All) is a Brooklyn, New York-based graphic, interactive, and architecture multi-disciplinary design studio.

Now a ripe 20, Ben sends us a notice of an update of new works... and we can't say we are at all disappointed.

Great, clean typography and nice decorative illustrations.... More

Visual Dialogue

Here's a prime example of an outstanding, awarded, professional design firm with every accolade in the field, great clients, a creative director with his own permanent gallery collection at Cooper-Hewitt, and yet... their company web site – while we did like the large-scale photographs – is lacking some basic IA to make it easier to navigate. It's too bad; because a few changes could really make it shine—it's just harder than necessary to get to all the great projects inside this site! But hey, website aside – when it comes to identity design, branding, posters, print work and packaging, you would be hard-pressed to find a stronger firm to help you develop professional, breakthrough creative designs....
