  Aleia Murawski and Sam Copeland create miniature worlds where snails are the actors

  Children love creating miniature worlds. From putzing about with dollhouses to long days at Legoland, these tiny creations allowed us to be kings of our own castle. Like Peter Pan, creative duo Aleia Murawski and Sam Copeland hold onto an essential aspect of childhood — play. The miniatures the duo creates are so intricate in detail that if it wasn’t for the mammoth snails that occupy them, you’d believe they were real.

  How aimless walks and observations inform Jan van der Kleijn’s design practice

  It was a poster for Gerrit Rietvield Academy’s study days – consisting of a black and white image of a dog, tiled – which first introduced us to the portfolio of Dutch designer, Jan van der Kleijn. Having moved to The Hague aged 20 to study at the Royal Academy of Art for three years, Jan completed his studies in graphic design at Gerrit Rietveld last year and now boasts a skilful, tonally consistent portfolio which a healthy dose of playfulness thrown in there too.

  Opposites attract in Harry Butt and Nicole Ginelli’s collaborative video, animated in two halves

  When Harry Butt (of Butt Studio) was briefed by Warner Music to create an interpretation of Elderbrook’s latest single Capricorn to the theme of “opposites attract” he decided on a process, not a visual, to do so. Created in collaboration with designer, illustrator and animator Nicole Ginelli, the video is split in two: the left half created by Harry and the right by Nicole. The result is a video which truly encapsulates the song’s concept, each side working with and against each other.
