side project: Lollipop Kids

After sharing the 12 inspirations on yesterday post, so today is the artworks. Started with the kindergarden nice exterior. Don't misunderstand, the painting is not my works. Hehee..



So this is it, a Lollipop cartoon I created for them as their icon/mascot. And he is wearing diff materials in diff locations. Putting a twist on a 'uniform' basis, but still in one positive attitude. ;-D Click to enlarge, the real buttons are the idea of Crystal, which is brilliant I think.

Happy Birthday to Scwa

It has come to another 30th anniversary of the day you were born that everyone celebrated for you.

Again, this anniversary is not a reminder for your age or how long you had been live.

But it is a life cycle to remind you how beautiful and grateful you had being transforming from the past 30 years of living and continuously. Just like the Butterflies' life cycle, egg, larva, pupa and butterfly. A not very early wishing to you, Happy Birthday, you good looking butterfly and may all the great things come to you.

12 INSPIRATIONS

01: Multicolour or 'Pixelated'? hehee..


02: Hawaiian prints, suit the weather here. Anyone know name of this plant?


03: Red Checker, can make foods look nicer i wonder?


04: Polka dots, Paula Tsui '徐小凤' aka '小凤姐' must be the pioneer.


05: Navy or Sailor. If u like this too, you must know SAINT JAMES.


06: Herringbone, for Mr Bean's blazer (im not sure, but i always think it is).


07: Star Pattern. Starry, starry night... to Vincent van Gogh.


08: RED, WHITE, BLUE Fabric. HK classic icon and a useful invention.


09: Argyle, this is a bit far from us, but its fun to have it.



10: Camouflage, first one which hits me, gonna be (early days) Bathing Ape.



11: Denim, for unwashed classic, go for 501 or A.P.C.


12: Checkers, like Damier always cooler than Monogram, and '秦先生' do have this character.




These are all the 12 inspirations for me to create the Mural for 'Lollipop Kids' - a kindergarden of my friends. So stay tuned for the reveal of the artworks, later? or tomorrow? hehe..

Nike Football: WRITE THE FUTURE




The event is getting closer, every major sponsors and sporting labels is running their promoting campaigns. And this is one of the best, funniest and inspiring. NIKE seeks Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu (director of 21 Grams and BABEL) for making this film. The film shows how one moment on the pitch can be effecting the whole world. I believe we wont see the full version in TV. Its like a trailer of FIFA World Cup 2010! hmm.. So watch it~!

PATRIOTIC DESIGN

here are some representatives...


UNITED STATE
The classic flag model, also the most perfect match country ALLSTAR.
and this monochrome version is so cool with the mixture of different materials. Looks better with black shoe lace. hmm..


UNITED KINGDOM
Actually its The Who version. Saw it in HK, didnt grab it. May be i want a US flag version before UK... but the sewing is great.


FRANCE
some said vintage Superstar is the best if you got "MADE IN FRANCE" version. To me, the guy who arranged the colour combi of this 3 stripes is brilliant!
This came out recently, its NB576. A classic model, and its always the 1st choice for a 1st pair of NB to me. The arrangement are smart too.


JAPAN
snap from old magazine, i couldn't Google it out, can't believe it!? Anyways, if the 2 black lines are white, outsole is red, then its perfect!


ok, imagine any sneakers you love with the flag of our country..........
Does it works? Is it an issue of patriotic or design? or both?

A single man by tom ford.


Just watched it today. Quite good for first timer director tom ford. Then again things that caught my attention are the art direction . The house, the wardrobe, the car..the settings...and the music ( very wong kar wai style) which i think is really well executed. Then again to be honest...i think if wong kar wai did it...it would be superb...not because he had direct gay story but his sense of " romantic" storytelling ...think tom ford just lack of the acute sense of romantic mood which wkw mastered it really well.

WAYFARER Limited Edition

a real nice retouching of the classic WAYFARER, the metal parts you see is actually cast in 18k white gold. A bit of luxury, a lots of cool elements!


Found out here, too bad already sold out...

inspiration






Been looking for inspiration since i lauch my company 2month ago, now i found this guy Shepard fairey..the guy behind one of the most successful presidential campaign for OBAMA. He design the famous obama poster..he's the same guy behind the big street brand " Obey".

There's alot of anti war + communist color scheme in his style which create a big contrast on the design concept. Its unique i think.

That will be the art direction for my company poster. hehehehe
