The following layouts were done while 2one5 was retained by Burton Snowboards to handle all major aspects of branding/marketing/advertising for the RED protection brand.
2one5 handled art direction, design, and executions for these print ads, which feature some product graphics that we also designed.

The year 2010 marks the 20th anniversary of Adobe’s truly game-changing application, Photoshop, which finally gave the instant power of image manipulation to the common man. That’s 20 years of printing money and fake IDs in the dorms, fake celebrity porno, and Reuters trickery. To celebrate the occasion, we collaborated with our friends at design firm CHIPS—a duo out of Brooklyn responsible for Too Hot For the Internet, some corporate logo-ing, and a little trickery of their own—to knock out an official countdown of all the awesome stuff that Photoshop has given us over the years. And remember kids—it’s not real…
I love these posters! Yeah i said it. In a design world overwhelmed with Bevels and Glows, its refreshing to see there is still such amazing talent out there. Tavis Coburn was commissioned to illustrate the program covers for the 2010 BAFTA awards ceremony… And we think they look Amazing, check them out after the jump! Source

Ride’s season crowning event, The Shakedown at Snoqualmie jumps off today at the Summit at Snoqualmie. Rad ass features, a ridiculous rider list that includes E-man, Dan Brisse, Darrell Mathes, Dustin Craven, Forest Bailey, Lucas Magoon, Marc McMorris, Sebastien Toutant, Yale Cousino, and a bunch more plus a healthy emphasis on partying, the Shakedown is definitely one of the year’s raddest throwdowns. The Canadian version goes down at St. Saveur on April 2.

“I have had the pleasure of working with Nikolas and his team and have always received stupendous service and results. When working with 2one5 you get much more then a design team you get a think-tank of creativity that elevates every project to the next level. 2one5 has written a blueprint for the future of design and I would recommend them without hesitation and look forward to working with them in the future.”
Having been a longtime fan of Futura, i was delighted to watch this insightful interview with the artist. I just met with Futura last year but did not get to speak to much to him because we were interviewing his partner in crime STASH. Anyways for any you folks that may not be atuned with this kind of art, be sure to take note because it’s on the UP and UP.
If you’ve ever looked at a traditional city map and lamented its unimaginative format, U.K. designer James Skevington has created the concept series ‘Frequent Flyer,’ rendering notable cities around the world as whimsical illustrations. The ‘maps,’ although not necessarily accurate for travel, work to provide the viewer with a sense of the cultural currency and content of a place, demonstrating its unique character through whimsical, colorful, and creative imagery. Although its not recommended you discard your GPS just yet, Skevington’s ‘Frequent Flyer’ remains an interest and innovative way to think about a city.

Having been a fan of Clare Rojas’s work for quite awhile now, it’s been a pleasure to see that she’s having some great show coming of late. The show that is currently on at the IKON gallery looks to be a very interesting . Not that i was actually on hand in Birmingham, but just from slide show on their website, it appears that Clare has some huge installations and some small framed paintings and some midsized works as well.
The cover art for the new album Li(f)e from hip hop artist Sage Francis was created by renowned artist and illustrator Shepard Fairey. Fairey has employed his distinctive style to create an image of Francis caught in the crosshairs as flames rise beneath him. Sage Francis will be performing songs from Li(f)e at the upcoming South By Southwest Festival on Tuesday March 18 at The Independent, 501 Studios, 501 Brushy Street at 12:30 am, before embarking on a North American tour.

Paper isn’t exactly the most exciting thing in the world, unless, of course you work at a top-notch paper company. Then, you might get a little bit riled up over some awesome paper. However, Doane Paper is something we can definitely get geeked about. Doane has a simple formula – Grids + Lines. They’ve made paper and notebooks that combine both grids and lines, giving you the best way to possible to jot downs some notes or draw up a little sketch.
Attention Typophiles: Don’t you love it when there’s a gallery exhibition that’s specifically about type? And the process that does into making great type? House Industries feels you on that one. And trust me, it’s great when House Industries feels you, if you know what I’m saying. Anyway, on March 11th, they will open the Eames Exhibition at the Eames Office where they will serve up “A cornucopia of free-standing dimensional letterforms and hand-printed installations” to “celebrate the intricate curves and stunning stroke contrast that are the building blocks of this new font collection.”
A good font can make a design stand out. A bad one can kill it. No. Slaughter it. I mean, christ, why the hell was Comic Sans even invented? No good comes from that blasphemous piece of you-know-what. Well, nothing except ads for a day care or the cover of a 2nd grader’s project on dinosaurs or some shit. That said, Katerina Orlikova’s ‘Light and Typography’ series takes the finely honed shapes of various typographic sets and using them to generate an ever-changing series of abstract images. Using the medium of a kaleidoscope, Orlikova developed a series of five units each themed around a single typeface, ranging from sans serif to calligraphic; the result are beautifully colorful images that scarcely represent our traditional perceptions of type and how we interpret its design.
At least she knows what she’s doing.
P.S. DON’T USE COMIC SANS. Nothing good will ever come from it. Just delete it from your computer. Do it. now.
Anyone who has a Wii and has played the new super Mario Bros. game can tell you that it will literally suck out your free time and social life with its super cool (not to mention sometimes near-impossible) levels and graphics until you are finally able to beat it…..just to find out that there is a whole other level that you have to beat. Somewhere in world 7-2, my free time is floating in Mario purgatory….but that’s another story. The 1988 Gallery in San Francisco is in the process of releasing an awesome print paying homage to possibly the bet video game series of all time. Glen Brogan is the amazing artist who created this genius piece. If you’re a Super Mario Bros. fan, this is a must-have!
