Consumers like the idea of established brands, but "old" and "mattress" aren't words that go together well. Ostermoor teamed up with Parker to help square that circle. In general, we like companies with decades of experience and expertise. They're far more likely to know what they're doing and provide good value. However, when we think about mattresses, we tend to gravitate to new, flashy brands with access to the latest supportive technologies.

‘Dinner ladies’ doesn’t have the most glamorous connotations in England – depending on your experience at school, it likely conjures up memories of scoops of greying, tepid mash-adjacent slop unceremoniously plopped onto a plate; something to do with turkey dinosaurs; a troop of formidable but visibly jaded people responsible for making every school smell like on-the-turn cottage pie from around The post The Dinner Ladies by Universal Favourite appeared first on BP&O - Branding, Packag

Pienso is seeking to make AI more accessible for ordinary companies. Now a new visual identity crafted by Pentagram is helping them pursue this mission. Say the word AI to creatives, and for many of us, the impulse is to stick our fingers in our ears, go "lalalalala" and hope it all goes away. But whatever your views of artificial intelligence, the idea that this is just some short-lived fad we can safely ignore is becoming increasingly untenable.

Here’s an unbelievably annoying problem that occurs during the Cricut Print and Cut process – a thin line or border appears around the design you create, even when you’re certain there’s no border in the design. When you send the design to print in Cricut, this thin line magically appears during the Print Setup stage. If you go ahead with the print and cut, this unwanted thin line remains, which looks like this: Despite multiple checks to ensure no lines exist in my design, the issue persists.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

The first thing to know about Hotel Rumour in Leiden, the Netherlands, is that it’s inside a remarkable old building: A carriage house built in 1657 that resides just down the hill from Burcht van Leiden, a medieval fortification that is 600 years older still. The second thing is that it’s not a hotel at all. The designers at Amsterdam’s Studio Modijefsky wanted to evoke the comfort and luxury of a time-honoured hotel so they gave this latest project its quirky moniker.

From visually impaired users who rely on assistive technology, to people with a temporary injury such as a broken arm, tech users are forever diverse and beautifully unique. The products we design can, and should, reflect the extremely wide range of human experiences and needs.
