Great Graphic Inspiration #17

Well yes it's a year to late, but the idea and execution is still great in this 2012 annual planner for Allegheny Financial by London-based design agency Bunch. Love the combination of yellow pages tied together with red thread in a sewn binding with an open spine stitch matched on the cover by using red and holographic foil – nice!

Complex Collages

Image cropping and splicing is now an ancient old art form dating back to the invention of the printing press, but the collages of Spanish artist Ernesto Artillo are bit more complex than a snip here and there. Ernesto is making note-worthy collages combining high-end photography of supermodels, ancient pieces of art, nature or animals in a terrific dusty colour palette.Via Lustik.

Tape Temptations

Spanish artist Anna Taratiel is totally on my favorite list. Not only has she done some wonderful wooden sculptures, she has also done these gorgeous geometric tape collages. Must buy tape! Via Battalion.

Just checking the Walls

The connections between humans and the built environment interests Chicago based artist Scott Carter, serving as the primary source material for his work. His work is expressed through simultaneous attempts at reconstruction, supported by a wide array of technical knowledge and a strong connection to his surroundings. Blurring the lines between sculpture and installation Carter first develops digital prototypes which he then translates into the myriad components needed to construct the furniture and other sculptures that comprise each exhibition. Via This Is Colossal.
