Align yourself with the world

After an afternoon aligning too much stuff in Flash I had this idea. I like this concept of aligning with the world. It has lots of meanings that you can take from it, from saving our world to help your fellow man. Please let me know your readings of this poster on the comments. Poster: [...]

Failing in Copenhagen

I’ve just read this amazing article by Mark Lynas on the Guardian website about the Copenhagen Summit. I did this poster about it. It just makes me very angry that politics is placed before our rights as humans and the survival of the Earth as we know it. By Pedro Monteiro

Copenhagen and Hopenhagen goes Nopenhagen

The Copenhagen climate change summit gave the world hope that global warming would be addressed in an unprecedented way by the world leaders. In the end the deal signed was weak and felt short of what most of us where expecting and what our planet needs. From Copenhagen we were wishing for Hopenhagen and all [...]

What type of life shall we have?

This is another great photograph from NASA. With pictures like this designing something is soooo easy!!!! Since COP15 is on the run I thought I might show how life on this planet hangs from (literally) a thin blue line. On the picture you can see just how small in proportion the atmosphere is and to [...]

2010 Calendar done with the Complex Grid

I thought that making something using this grid and explaining the details could be fun and useful. One of the advantages [...]

Helvetiva – a hell of a typeface!

A simple idea I had driving home after work. It’s really a hell of a typeface. Hope you like it! Poster: A3, Type: Helvetica By: Pedro Monteiro

What’s it worth?

It’s still so worth it! After a long time feeling drain out and with nothing to say here, I’ve found this amazing typeface from my friend Network Osaka. I really admire his work (you can check it here) and this typeface just ‘made’ me do something with it. I shall experiment with it a lot [...]

Freedom and Bobby McGee

I’ve always liked this sentence from the song ‘Me and Bobby McGee’. I really love the version that Janis Joplin sang. So here it is a small type and grid play I’ve made from this song. Hope you like it. Please comment Poster: A2 , Type: Helvetica By: Pedro Monteiro

At the speed of light

My cousin Pedro Sá Correia is a great photographer. Some days ago he was showing me his latest works and I had one of those ‘speed of light’ inspirations from one of his pictures. This is the final result. You can check his work here and, who knows, you might be also as inspired as [...]
