Thinking Green in 2010

We recently received a copy of the 2010 Think Green Calendar by EIGA, a design firm out of Germany. The calendar shows contemporary “Eco-typography” and special “green works” of designers from various disciplines worldwide. “Think Green!” creates a stimulating visual inventory of the fusion of ecology and design. For more on the Think Green Calendar you know what to do.

Design generally speaking is often overlooked and misunderstood. This typographic poster highlights 7 rules to understand design & designers. Would look nice in a conference room no?

Stellar work from a ton of different designers (there’s some really great stuff on there!), but what’s with the website!? I’m not sure if it’s intentionally random or just buggy. At the very least, it forces you to peruse (not awesome if you’re trying to go back to something specific). These two posters are from via grafik and josh vanover (left-to-right).

Call For Entries: Culture Counts

From Press Release:
The best hope for peace in the world – yet one of the biggest challenges – is the pursuit of better communication and understanding between different civilizations, cultures and peoples. To help UNESCO achieve this objective, DESIGN 21: Social Design Network – an online platform founded by Felissimo and UNESCO to promote design for the greater good – launched the Culture Counts competition. Designers across the globe are asked to submit poster designs that celebrate 2010 as the International Year for the Rapprochement of Cultures. The top 30 posters will be showcased in an exhibition at UNESCO headquarters in Paris during the second annual International Festival of Cultural Diversity in May 2010. An “Overall Winner” and two “Judge’s Picks” will also be chosen to receive cash prizes.

A Gift From Facebook

Detail:

Ben Barry and the Facebook Design team working with what looks like a limitless budget conceived a beautifully intricate 19X19 poster that was printed, embossed, and foil-stamped to perfection. Go to FPO for more on the process behind the design.

Thanks Tushar for the heads-up.

2010 Calendar: Think Green

More than 100 designers will be published in the publication. 53 designers have a special podium as a weekly theme. “Think Green!” creates for the year 2010, a visual inventory of the topic of ecology and design. In addition to individual, for this project developed typography, the calendar shows ideas in the context of raw materials, energy and the environment in different countries.

We were lucky enough to be asked to be represented in this showcase of progressive work and are anxiously awaiting our copy. To learn more about EIGA—the people behind it and how to snag a copy for 2010 click here.
