Egelnick and Webb

Words by Alex Bec, Thursday 09 April 2009

The inspiration for Henry Holland’s latest collection was swatch gradation, so what better subject to base their Autumn/Winter 09 promotional material on?

Design studio Egelnick and Webb screen-printed directly over used Pantone Chip Books, maximising the amount of colour variations produced. An obviously engaging and pleasing aesthetic on a tight budget, lovely stuff.

Inkwell, a font just released by type foundry Hoefler&Co, was developed to find a middle ground between expression and functionality. Based on handwritten designs, the font conveys personality and informality while being as versatile as a standard typeface.

Work / Graphic Design Inside the constantly-probing mind of graphic designer Sebastian Koseda

“Graphic design is dead. The kind I was introduced to is anyway,” so says graphic designer Sebastian Koseda. Since we first spoke to him back in 2012 when he had freshly graduated from Middlesex University (with a fistful of awards from CN, ISTD and D&AD), the graphic designer has graphed his way up the career ladder at Clerkenwell-based digital agency Feed London from junior design to creative director via an MA Visual Communication at the RCA. Among recent successes, Sebastian counts a typographic installation piece for Seoul typography biennale Typojanchi Biennale, the transformation of a discarded theatre into a cutting-edge space in Sheffield, the redesign of a record label Mute with Adrian Shaughnessy and saving the Southbank skate spot. We caught up with Sebastian for a closer look at his work.

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.
