To do before the 24th (in no particular order)
To be continued…
Spent the weekend at the summerhouse. Now counting 16 mosquito bites. On the right foot only. Also to blame is Holland.
“We are pleased to inform you that the proposed company name – Edlund Pte. Ltd. has been approved by ACRA.”
So there you have it, folks. Now I’m gonna get back to reading my book.
Apart from not being nice, the profile might now even harmful.
If there is one thing about graphic design I usually really like, it’s the logos for the Olympics, with the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics as one of my favourites. Today London 2012
revealed their new graphic identity (with a brand movie that looks like it’s made by a bunch of 10 year olds on acid).
Seriously, people. The old one was at least ok, but what the hell?
I blew it. This is what happened. I was going to head up on the highway, and as I turn on to the on-ramp, there’s a truck that has been standing on the side of the road with its warning lights on, that decides to go up on the highway before me. Problem is, trucks don’t accellerate very fast, and I end up coming on to the highway doing 55 instead of 110. I get into the right lane, look back briefly to see if there are cars behind me or if I can get into the left lane to pass the truck, when the truck suddenly comes into my lane without warning. I see it in the corner of my eye, but the examinator (curse that woman) doesn’t think I do, grabs the wheel and turns the car into the left lane. And since she intervenes I automatically fail. Fuck. Now the question is whether I’ll be able to get a license before I head off to Singapore, or if I have to redo the whole thing from scratch in a year. Fuck.
I desperately need a haircut and I am after five days of saving pretty much ready to say that I don’t really have any serious beard growth.
I’ll give it a week. Now, get back to work!
These last few weeks have been crazy, work wise. But at least some things have been accomplished, like the new page for Spara 4 Life (Swedish), a campaign from Swedish bank Skandia and Latifeh (creators of among other things the magazines Gringo and Macho) to make kids save money for retirement. Patrick and I were designers, and Elias from Proportio did the flash. It’s been chaos and plenty of blood, sweat and tears, but at least it’s online! Finally!
