Moneygami

I found these through a random blog, and then managed to trace them back to this japanese site, although I still can't really work out who did them. Aren't they clever though?

Coffe Cup Designs

Found these brilliant packaging and signage designs via design*sponge by Waldopancake. They are damn well hilarious and made me giggle. This guy also illustrates a lot of M&S's kids confectionary packaging, you can see his flikr site here where there's loads more funny packaging and some of his other work too. Very good, yah.

"Welcome to the enchanted universe of the Neiman Marcus Pop Up Book. This limited-edition memento follows a young girl's journey through Neiman Marcus from past to present. Our signature butterfly and an over-the-top Christmas make appearances, as well as our world-renowned art collection."

Nicked?....bunnies

In response to Neil's earlier post about Kozyndan, I bring you some interesting news regarding the new Sony Bravia bunny advert.....

Kozyndan have suggested that perhaps the idea for the advert isn’t quite as original as you’d think. Speaking of the above illustration, they say, “ It’s hard to think that people at Passion Pictures did not have this early panoramic in mind when they created this new spot for the Sony bravia line.”

They blame advertising agency Fallon who previously asked to see samples of their work. (Fallon by the way have a super cool website check it out here)

It certainly brings up the debate of the ownership of ideas, stealing ideas within design, etc which some people say is unavoidable these days. What do you think?

On a more positive note, the advert, which is the world’s largest stop-frame animation, is bloody brilliant. You can see it here

Hide Boxes

I saw these boxes on wishing bone. Based on a vintage Japanese design, the provide cool storage, but could be a good for gift boxes . Made of woven cotton fabric in botanical or abstract prints, 'the clever design opens and closes with an accordion-like effect offering significant space in a small product'.
