Obese Pepsi

So we've all seen the new pepsi logo right? Well, this sure made me laugh when I came across Lawrence Yang interpretation of the logo. Lawrence is an artist from San Francisco and in his blog he explains how Pepsi recently plastered the Powell BART station in San Francisco with Pepsi ads...all flaunting Pepsi's new lopsided logo. And every time he sees the logo, he can't help imagining a big belly button in the middle... So he thought he would share his vision with you all. Check out the result...and it's probably true if all you drink and eat is Pepsi and BigMacs.

Tooth Cushions

I normally don't really post 'cutesy' stuff, but considering that this is a design blog that showcases creativity in its many forms I thought that these Tooth Cushions are full of color, joy, and creativity worthy of posting. Designed by Letter M, these Tooth Cushions are great at holding onto teeth until the Tooth Fairy comes. For a more personalized cushion, each one comes with their own little check-the-box note for the Tooth Fairy. Only 5-10 cushions are created from each style, so they are a perfect gift for your child to enjoy. The combination of colors, patterns, textures, and accessories (such as vintage buttons), truly make these designs a fun gift idea for the little ones.

Keep-Us-Busy

When I came across Tom & Shaun's third year graphic design project 'Keep-Us-Busy' it made me laugh, but in a good way. A very interesting way to showcase your talent, by asking everyone to keep you busy while gaining experience in doing it. The duo are enclosed in a display window, and they'll be posting everything they do and everything they are asked to do on the wall. Not sure how the project will turn out for them, or if anything will be gained by it, but it's still a fairly good way to engage people who are not only locally (Lincoln, UK) but also internationally via the 'interweb'. Regardless of the outcome, I still think it's a unique way to promote yourself as a graphic design graduate. I hope good things come out of Tom's & Shaun's effort. Check them out on display and read more about this project on their website.
