treviso design
We designed this poster for the project Treviso Design.
10 posters were commissioned from different designers to illustrate the points of the Treviso Design manifesto, we were asked to tackle point number 9: 'Treviso Design believes in the propulsive force of the new generation and therefore intends to encourage and help both the placement of young talent in industry and the creation of new enterprises'.
The poster was printed at a huge 70x100cm, offset printing.
For more info about Treviso Design check here. The posters will also be collected together for an exhibition and catalogue, more details on that soon....

The session X
We have been asked to present a workshop curated by Spazio XYZ and in collaboration with graphic design duo Tankboys.
The workshop theme is From boring to interesting and will address the process of creating an interesting solution to a boring brief.
If a client asks for a poster for shoes, that is not a problem. You have to stay with him until you formulate a real problem. You've got to redefine it until its interesting. If you don't have an interesting problem, you can't make an interesting solution. Bob Gill.
At the end of the day the participants will present the work they have created to a panel for discussion and assessment. The Panel will be led by Steven Heller and Lita Talarico from the New York School of Visual Arts.
The workshop will take place at Fondazione Claudio Buziol in Venice on Friday 4th June 2010 from 9am-5pm.
For more info on how to apply for a place, times, how to get there ect you can download a PDF with everything you need to know here. Deadline for applications is 31st May 2010.
Note:Workshop will be conducted in Italian, the discussion afterwards in English.
