Student Work – John Cook

April 2, 2012 | No Comments

Designed by John Cook | Country: United States

“A hand-stitched notebook with a cover made from an original guide map of the 1938 World’s Fair (that was the cool one with all the futurism). The gap in the spine is a necessary characteristic of the type of stitch used on this book (button-hole stitch), and I decided to extend it into an arrow shape on the cover to underline the map concept.”

ILoveDust x Macho Man Randy Savage

August 2, 2011 | 6 Comments

Designed by ILoveDust | Country: United Kingdom

“Macho Man Randy Savage, has got to be the most unique and idiosyncratic character in the history of professional wresting. There’s really no one else like him and he defies all attempts at labelling or categorisation. He was a writhing muscular mass of bizarre ticks and personal mannerisms, clad in an ever-changing, endless wardrobe of hyper-flamboyant colours. A true one off, a heavy metal neon cowboy. What better muse for ilovedust?”

Designed by Timba Smits | Country: United Kingdom

Wooden Toy Quarterly is a heavily designed ‘Boogazine’, half Book, half Magazine. For the new music edition they’ve packaged it in this illustration driven Toybox.

“In the toybox comes one 150 page magazine (230mm x 230mm), an artist print, a 40 page type zine and a certificate of authenticity because these babies are limited edition (only 5000 made) ,and all hand assembled by myself and some friends! For this edition I added a special radial cut to my toybox to reference a record cover. The print shows through the radial cut to further reference a record.”

Designed by Bruketa&Zinic OM | Country: Croatia

“This is a monograph for one of the best and oldest high-schools in Zagreb, the 5th Gymnasium. We packaged the book in a pencil-case filled with school utensils (pens, pencils, rulers, etc.) Everything was custom made for this project and branded with school’s visual identity. The school’s curriculum emphasizes mathematics – this idea is reflected in visual identity (upside-down 5 reads like a G).”

Designed by Top Drawer Creative | Country: Canada

“The task [was] to create the first Year in Review for this newly privatized company. They wanted something special, that would be noticed, read, looked at and kept. We wanted to package this in a unique and relevant way and pitched to the client that the actual book could be put in a custom made ³IV² bag. We had to take it all the way to a Chinese IV bag manufacturer where the bags was made. Only 500 of them were produced.”
