Coöp

Words by Alex Bec, Wednesday 06 October 2010

When graphic design is this good, it looks utterly effortless and we’re left wondering why we all can’t do it this well. Paul Marcus Fuog opened the doors of Coöp in 2004, and in the years between then and now, has produced some very solid design work indeed. Don’t miss the curious photos for his State of Design Festival piece either.

Work / Graphic Design New York-based agency T&T&T are in it for “$$$$$, fame and graphic bliss”

“I think my main ideal is to try and not take myself too seriously, and steer clear of the type of self-important vibes that one might encounter in our industry,” says Mory Talmor, founder of Talmour & Talmour & Talmour. Having made the move to independent practice just over a year ago, with previous employers including Sagmeister & Walsh and Wednesday NYC, Mory launched T&T&T in August. “After a while of working for (and learning from) other people, I felt like it was time to try and start my own thing, and finally have complete control over the music playing in the background,” he explains. “This might mean keeping my aesthetics light and fun (when possible) or by playing around with conceptions of high-brow Vs low-brow in my work, or just by trying to take things with a grain of salt when speaking passionately with client about a nav-bar in a digital-editorial-branded-content-hub.”

Work / Graphic Design Graphic designer Timo Lenzen fuses hyperreal, architectural forms with vivid colours

German graphic designer Timo Lenzen merges crisp, stylised 3D forms with harsh, vibrant gradients to make posters with punch. Inspired by highly graphical works by Franco Grignani and architecture by Ricardo Bofill Levi, many of his designs have a sense of immense scale and space, while being bold with simple forms and colour.
