In January I went to Shenzhen and found there an exhibition of GDC, the first global design competition in China, which is held every two years.

Here I share with you photos of some exhibits from there, mostly posters.

At ICOGRADA Beijing I attended a master class of one Australian designer. The guy’s name is Andrew Ashton and he totally rocks=)

For the presentation he showed up in a koala costume, dancing, which absolutely stunted Chinese audience. And this is not the only thing he can do. Ashton has this wild and brave approach to design which is so appealing to me. But this are not just crazy and rebelion leaps but results of analytical and insightful thinking, and, of course, bravery.

As an example I show just a few posters but he’ve done the whole bunch of great branding projects, that usually are kind of special and dynamic, so Andrew showcase them with animated gifs.

So make sure you visit Studio Pip and Co. website for other projects!
