Documentary
A stunning abstract icon for the film category 'documentary'. I really like the typeface and intriguing shapes and lines of the design. The use of negative space is effective and helps to make this icon memorable despite its abstract nature.

A simple yet effective site for a company that sells letterpress posters. I like the descriptive central graphic and the restrained use of text. The poster gallery is stripped back but works really well to show off the type.

Basta
This person said they wanted round business cards, but realized that doing so meant that the cards wouldn’t fit into a typical cardholder. The solution? A perforation that allows you to rip the card so it will fit. I love the concept and find that the choice of colours here just simply 'works'.
