North Korea has been infiltrated.

Dear Grace

I found an amazing guy living in London. He is leading some group of tourists in North Korea since 2 years. And he is just 25! You can contact him via his Facebook group. He seems to have lot of experience in the field and would be of great interest for your project.

His name is Alex Hoban. He is currently living in East London.

He is also a writer for Viceland, you can have a look at all his articles here:

Pablo - Objects/memories web site

Hi group

This is a web site I started to develop last week.
I have to improve this much more, but for the moment you can upload your name, object, memories with this object and a picture (if you want).

You can also search for other people, objects and experiences (but for the moment it’s completely empty).

If you want to donate a nice memory with a cherished object, feel free to do it. :D

video for 3min presentation




Hi,
it would be nice to have some comments and suggestions.

Too long? too boring?

I decided not to include sound because it didn't have good quality, it seemed strange.
I think I like not having any sound at all... makes it more 'deep' in a way.
Should a find a song? (it's so difficult to find one that fits...)

Do you think I should include some kind of background/image instead of leave it white?

Thank you so much :)

Portuguese tiles patterns

Soo Young, here you can see the project that me and my classmates did in 2nd year of Uni about Portuguese tiles and its patterns. It was mainly a visual research, so we don't have any theoretical references for that. But I am quite sure that this patterns don't have any meaning. The only thing I can tell you more about tiles is that they are part of our culture and our visual identity. It's present in the facades of lots of old buildings around the country.
Some of them have influences from muslim patterns (easy to identify).

This is the link I told you about design+education. Didn't read it yet so don't really know what it's about, but might be of interest. It's a "toolkit" that you can download for free, just under the tag.

A COLLECTION OF ACCIDENTS

A collection of accidents is an attempt by Dries Wiewauters to reveal some of the small coincidences that occur during the design process, but end up leaving a strong influence on the finished product. What triggers these moments? What is their origin? The presentation will highlight some past and forthcoming projects; relate them to each other and to prior influences. It will try to expose all the elements of a project that remain hidden within the finished design.

Invited to design the second set of the embedded typeface for SALT's identity, Dries Wiewauters is a graphic designer who also happens to be an avid type designer. He has two Master degrees, one in Graphic Design (2008, Sint-Lucas, Ghent, Belgium) and one in Typography (2010, Werkplaats Typografie, Arnhem, the Netherlands.) Wiewauters is currently based in Belgium and works as a freelance designer specializing in printed matter and custom typefaces.
