Geometry Daily

added on Sunday, Jan 01, 2012 20:10 pm

I start something new today.

In 2012, I‘m going to channel my enthusiasm for simple graphics in a new on-going personal design project. Starting today I will publish a new graphic artwork each and every day. Each piece will be based on simple geometric shapes and composed in a rather minimal style. I set up a new tumble log dedicated to this project. It‘s called Geometry Daily, the URL is geometrydaily.tumblr.com.

Let‘s see where this will take us and how long I can hold that up! I‘m excited. See you over there. ¬ Comments

Dear world, I would like to let you know: I take the next year off. I will be staying away from agency work at the Warriors from September 2011 to August 2012. Instead, I will be taking care of our two wonderful kids (2 1/2 and nearly a year old). Twelve months of full-time Dad duties! ¬ Full Entry

Misericordia

added on Wednesday, Dec 08, 2010 13:16 pm

This is a sign I created for a local project for young adult christians. The project is about putting our faith in God into practice by helping needy people in our home town.

That is a very honorable task with a long tradition. So I created a coat of arms, but in a very modern and graphic way. The symbols depict the values of the project: Doing good with our hands (top left), rooted in Christ (the vineyard in the lower right). ¬ Full Entry

Bayerischer Staatspreis für Nachwuchsdesigner Exhibition

added on Thursday, Nov 11, 2010 11:34 am

If you are in or near Nuremberg, don‘t miss the current exhibition of the Bayerischer Staatspreis für Nachwuchsdesigner in the Neues Museum. The state of bavaria awarded this price to young designers of different fields. Not only is the exhibition showing some fine design works (and admission is free), but it also shows the corporate design of the award that I was working on the last months at the Warriors of the Light.

Its key element is a dynamic abstract graphic structure, based on the blue rhomb of the bavarian flag. It is now used on the catalog, on the posters inside and outside and also on the exhibition floor.

More images after the break. ¬ Full Entry

It's just a phone

added on Thursday, Jul 01, 2010 23:21 pm


Today there where some rumors again of Steve Jobs answering mails from iPhone users. Be them fake or not, I like Mr Job‘s attitude when he finishes a heated conversation about signal strength with these words:

“retire, relax, enjoy your family. It is just a phone. Not worth it.”

These are the most sane words I heard this week. That‘s why I celebrate them with a custom-made iPhone wallpaper: Download here. This puts things in perspective when the next “Oooooh, is this the new iPhone 4?” comes along. It‘s just a phone!

ps.: Of course I made this with a resolution fit for the retina display: 640 × 960 pixels. ¬ Comments

Hipstamatic Nature

I took last week off and roamed about with the family. And wherever I went, I was snapping pictures with the Hipstamatic app. I did not think that a mobile phone will change the way I think about photography. But so it goes. Enjoy! Feel free to comment here or on Flickr. ¬ Full Entry
