This Sunday March 20th, Kortrijk is being invaded by young creative talent from all over Belgium and The Netherlands. In cultural centre Buda, over 60 young fighters will show their most intriguing creations in fashion, interior design, graphic design, food, ceramics, photography and jewelry. The event even has a soundtrack, selected by An Pierlé & White Velvet in collaboration with our GutzandGlory client De Kreun, Kortrijk’s concert hall. The central theme of the event is Ecological renewal, for which many “pièces uniques” are sold to the benefit of Natuurpunt.
This very attractively finished typographic memory game includes 25 variations of the letter ‘A’, each in a different font. Players attempt to find the matching A’s in the same typeface. The player who has the highest number of matching letters wins the game. Typographic information about the letter is included on the card, and a separate folder provides a general history of the typography. This is an enjoyable and instructive game for graphic designers and anyone who is fascinated by typeface and fonts. As you play, you increasingly recognize what are often very subtle differences between the letters and more about the details of the fonts. They become progressively easier to recognize and to be distinguished from one another (even Univers and Helvetica!) Among the fonts included in the game are Akzidenz Grotesk, Baskerville, Centaur, Garamond, Helvetica Rockwell, Times New Roman, Univers and many more.
The game was assembled and designed by the Brazilian Design Studio, ps.2 arquitetura + design.
These summer days don’t give us what we long for. Rain, clouds… Luckily we’ve got a lot of work to do.
Yet it does not hurt to dream a little with this exquisite video for Peak Performance, showing adventurous and exciting elements such as, sun, mountains, sporty guys and girls, gorgeous landscapes. We love this brand and their communication style.

Lolli-pop is the latest conceptual still life project by Italian born photographer Massimo Gammacurta. His lollies are edible icons. The brands are as sweet as candy for the palate and the eye. The brand association has in fact been replaced by a new meaning through the materiality and the abstract action painting dynamic gestures. When Massimo first distributed his lolli-pops on the internet as an art experiment, interest among bloggers and fashionistas exploded. With this book, his lolli-pops of global brands are released into the world once again for consumption, yet now in print…
You just can’t get past soccer nowadays. But it’s only every other 4 years we have a World Cup so give the footballfans a break.
Those who dislike soccer that much might enjoy this cool video I found. It’s a short stop motion about the World Cup with a little message. Definitely worth checking out, it doesn’t take a lot of your time and the narrator’s voice is very soothing (much better than those vuvuzelas)!
