Southbank
Tom Haugomat’s cinematic poster for luxury apartments in a Southbank high-rise. Love how this one illustrates a room while the walls are invisible. I love the way the colors are applied with such contrast. It sucks you in.
Grand Teton National Park
Part of a poster for the Grand Teton National Park. One poster of the Fifty-Nine Parks Print Series, a celebration of the US National Parks. This illustration uses different pattern and texture techniques combined, which makes it really interesting to look at.
Beautiful dawn
The tranquility in this one is super super strong. Nature has its way with its color palettes.
Forest Road
My favourite kind of dirt road. That light is beautiful!
New York snow
Photographer Dave Krugman caught some stunning pictures during the last blizzard in New York. Great color inspiration in there too.
Strade Bianche: Donne
Gorgeous inspiring photo of the rolling Tuscan hills shot during the women’s cycle race of Strade Bianche shot by my friend Ashley Gruber.
Les Salins 2015–2016
Brilliant combination of photography and graphic design.
The High Authority For Transparency In Public Life
Illustration for a French agency that works to prevent corruption (Haute Autorité pour la transparence de la vie publique). The shadow play is lovely. An excellent execution of shadow and light can elevate an illustration to a whole other level!
Lookout
Beautiful! Wouldn’t mind having a break at this lookout. This illustration has it all: shadow and light are perfectly executed, the color palette creates the exact mood it needs, and the details are all over the place – you can’t get enough of it.
Stacked
“Stacked” is an approach to the large post-war housing estates in Berlin, often built in the form of tower blocks in a fairly uniform fashion. However, when looking closer you find a lot of variation. This photo just looks like a perfect illustration.
The Last Utopian
Love the science fiction touch to this. Brilliant texture usage as well.
The Biggest Story
Inspiring illustration for a children’s book based on Bible stories. The colors are just so appealing, and the details in the patterns, lines and textures are just gorgeous.
Mystery Project 76.1
Super clean work and effective use of a limited color palette. The internal patterns are a nice touch.
Love And Romance
Impressive character design and I like how the long curvy lines perfectly describe the body’s form.
Monsters book cover
The colors, the characters, the textures – they’re all so well used.
Modern Reformation
Everything is perfectly arranged in this one.
