b-positive's website! NEW!!!

It's time to get to know another brilliant graphic-visual designer and illustrator from Greece. He is young at age but with lot of experience because he used to be part of the poordesigner studio until this summer.

After many years in that team he decided to go on his own under the nickname b-positive.
Watching his works you could see clearly that he knows well to manipulate typography, comps, colour and his illustrations have a unique character.
There is not much for me to say because his work speaks for itself. Enjoy b-postive!

Create your own font!

Yes that's the name! Creating a font never was that easy. You only have to use your imagination.

This website helps you to create fonts that you can use for your projects and be unique for your clients. You can create only the characters you need for the project and if you want you can go back and create the rest of the characters. You can also create glyphs.

All these brought to you by the well know type foundry Fontshop

Oh, almost forget the website for fontstruct

Enjoy my friends.

European Union is looking for a new symbol

The familiar symbol with 12 stars

Rem Koolhaas's proposal in 2001

Graphic designer Hans Kruit's proposal for the new European Symbol in 2005

1955 German designer Arsen Heitz design the circle with twelve stars to represent the symbol of the European Council. After 1986 this symbol have been used to represent everything that has to do with the European Council or Union. The circle gives a sense of unit and equality and the number twelve gives a sense of perfection (like 12 months, hours etc).
After so many years a lot of things changed. First the European Council changed its name to European Union and of course now the countries that participates are more than twelve. What we call European Union now seems complete and it needs a new symbol for that.
So the newly established Dutch foundation Design De Haag (info) asks from the European designers to send in their design for the new symbol for Europe. 12 submissions will be selected by an international jury and will print on flags. These flags will be shown during the first edition of Design and Government 2010.
