Anagrama

Words by Alex Bec, Wednesday 09 September 2009

I can’t put my finger on why this images are so successful, but there made me want to pull them out of the folio of Anagrama and show you. A Mexican studio with a very sound body of work, and you can’t help but feel as though it sounds like a little bit more exciting when refered to as ‘Dirección De Arte’.

Jad Hussein lives in Paris where he works as a designer, an editor, and a teacher of typography and editorial design. “I also used to run a publishing house for five years (19/80 Éditions, 2012–2017) focused on contemporary photography, energy of youth, skateboarding and more,” he tells us. These days, Jad’s main concern is his graphic design studio named Look Specific.

Jimbo Barbu works under the moniker Studio Jimbo, as an independent designer and art director in Paris on various editorial, branding and identity projects. “My style is communicative, using typography to create impact and power,” explains Jimbo. “Science fiction, art, photography, fashion music are all inspirations and anything can make something click in my head and give me an idea.”

Work / Graphic Design Leipzig graphic design studio Lamm & Kirch on their shared ethos

Back in 2015, we noted that Leipzig-based graphic design studio Lamm & Kirch had “produced one of the most varied, fun and colourful back-catalogues of poster work we’ve ever seen.” Praise that’s hard to top maybe, but since then, the studio whose design practice also runs to books, visual identities and exhibitions, has proved its worth – and had its posters recognised by global publications to boot.

Work / Graphic Design Behind Hato’s identity for Samson Young's Venice Biennale pavilion

Among the generally lofty and serious graphic design at Venice Biennale, Hato’s identity for the Hong Kong pavilion by Samson Young is refreshing. Vibrant, haphazard and friendly, the graphic and digital design conveys a wholly different image to many of its neighbours at the fair.
