Isaac Yu's work is recognized for its experimental approach to oversized silhouettes and innovative use of denim textiles, often infused with playful elements inspired by childhood imagination.
The differently colored stripes symbolise 'Colours Beyond the Horizon', with the stripe graphic featuring 12 colours: 11 colours representing each player, while the central red stripe symbolises the Japanese football family, which is a really nice added touch.
Drawing on childhood memories, folk art, and nature, the London-based illustrator and model maker creates expressive sculptures and puppets that inhabit dreamlike realms. Invoking historical costumes and cartoonish and emotive faces, Johnston's otherworldly cast seems both familiar and strange, as if children's book protagonists have sprung to life or converged with a strange dream.
The most effective way to change what people do today is to make them experience what tomorrow can look like. They illustrate details backed by data, science, and facts, allowing their imagined futures to no longer stand as theories but as actionable methods. Where forecasting extends from data, speculative design builds from imagination, supported by research.
The ridges of eucalyptus bark, the geometries of shell formations, moss-covered trees, Indigenous grasslands and the hidden networks of fungi beneath the soil. These landscapes produce organic yet abstract patterns - natural systems that quietly shape the way we see and design the world around us.
AI is creating significant disruption and competing definitions of what is 'human made' are confusing consumers. A universal definition is essential to build trust, clarification and confidence. Without standardization, consumers face confusion distinguishing between genuinely human-made products and those using AI, undermining the credibility of the entire certification movement.
I love love, that's why his drawings often include figures, animals and even flowers hugging and kissing. Doesn't it feel good to be loved? Hot-dang, I know so - so my drawings express my love for love, especially for the ones we love.
Daniel Savage walked us through some of the material experimentations that led to the development of his distinct animation style. The designer demonstrated how his use of the pen plotter as more of a printmaking process has allowed his animations to become more than just films, shaping editorial illustration commissions for The New York Times as well as his new artist book Something Savage, published by Vitra editions.
The new design features a streaked old royal' blue pattern on a black base, but leaves much of the central area beneath the badge plain. Neon yellow highlights adorn the shoulders, matching the badge, whilst there are teal tinges in the side panels. A little Vai Brasa' (Go, Brazil) logo on the inside of the collar is a nice touch.
Brazil have joined forces with the Jordan brand to create what will be one of the coolest kits on show at the 2026 FIFA World Cup this summer. The Seleção's latest jersey has been designed in collaboration with the Nike offshoot label, who have forged a similar relationship with Paris Saint-Germain in 2018 that has spawned a cavalcade of fashion-conscious kits for the reigning UEFA Champions League holders.
When Jay Chiat commissioned Gaetano Pesce in 1994, he envisioned a workplace free from assigned desks and rigid partitions. The Italian designer responded with a space conceived as a flexible field of movement. The office functioned almost like a small city, where meeting areas and work zones formed an informal network of routes and gathering points.
Each layered element is independent, all housed within one object on your timeline. Multiple elements can be combined into a Flipbook by using the multi-select function. This allows for users to shift, organise, and retime frames.
When I'm painting, I try not to look at too many things so I don't become overly influenced. But we can't really escape ourselves. There are imaginations from other people that I love. Diogo's work is a colourful combo of Alejandro Jodorowsky's strange filmic palettes, Japanese sci-fi and vintage posters.
Helping people to reconnect with old memories, viewers are transported to their local corner shop, school playgrounds and childhood cupboards. "I think this project has struck a chord because there's a particular interest in hand drawn designs of the past in the current age of AI where human effort is at an all-time low. Now the first thought is 'I'll get AI to do that', rather than commissioning an illustrator," says Chris.
In illustrator Chiara Xie 's work, everything is in motion. Rooted in a deep reverence for vitality, Chiara is fascinated by "the rhythm that flows through a scene", lingering like a suspended breath, and other times "surging as a vibrant, agile current of motion". It's not hard to know what she means: every illustration is filled with motion, arcs of light and air bouncing off every corner.
Most coat hangers exist somewhere between purely functional and aggressively boring. They're the things we grab without thinking, the wire creatures that multiply mysteriously in closets, or the bulky wooden ones that restaurants seem to breed. But every so often, a design comes along that makes you stop and reconsider something as mundane as a place to hang your jacket.
I'm a midweight designer looking to step into another job elsewhere but I keep hearing so many conflicting things about portfolio formats and I don't want to have to recreate three versions all on different platforms just to apply for a job. I can't find any solid advice on what agencies are looking to see regarding format and if sending a PDF makes you look dated.
Musée d'Orsay hosted an exhibit last year called "Art is in the Street," which cataloged "the spectacular rise of the illustrated poster in Paris during the second half of the 19th century." The prints were lithographs - drawings made on limestone with greasy pencils, which were then exposed to water and inverted onto sheets of paper. Typically, each color got its own stone. The finished product was a firework of oily yellows and reds.
