TDSF spent a wintry lunch break at fuseproject, a local product design firm, gaining insight into their multi-disciplinary processes and viewing their brand-new studio space.

Curt Collinsworth and Logan Ray were on hand to walk us through their successful relationship with Jawbone, their recent overhaul of the Nivea brandmark and bottle design, and talked briefly of their soon-to-debut Public Office Landscape collaboration with Herman Miller, which they've been testing within their own studio since moving in during the Spring.

fuseproject offers a wide range of services under one roof, and their ability to craft an entire brand story holistically shows through in their work. A successful process to note as TD grows!

      

The Sayl chairs were used in the Hunger Games! And we sat on them.

I know this packaging has been around for a bit but I don't think the illustrator hasn't been posted too much. His work is pretty interesting and definitely unusual for consumer packaging.

Well worth checking him out. Especially if you're looking to get a new tattoo.

creative catharsis

Ireland's creative community got together to release a lot of pent up anger and sadness through the medium of the A3 poster, all in aid of Temple Street Children's Hospital. 

Ad creatives, designers, animators, directors, illustrators and more took time out to dress up their favourite worst feedback from clients, transforming quotes that would normally give you a twitch, into a diverse collection of posters.
