Great inspiration for graphic design addicts
I got this fantastic book from my girlfriend for my birthday. I highly recommend it to anyone who's interested in graphic design.
"The progressive state of contemporary two-dimensional graphic design.
Graphic design as a formal discipline is in constant flux. In recent years, its productive
three-dimensional installation art have further escalated the development
of the discipline. This evolution has in turn raised the bar for cutting-edge
two-dimensional graphic design.
Regular examines and documents the current state of graphic design, identifying
the most visionary young designers at the top of their game with examples
of their progressive manifestations in the printed form. Wide-ranging in nature:
from poster design, book and magazine editorial design as well as typography,
the projects showcased in this book are characteristically underlined by a Neo-
Conservatist and Deconstructivist approach. Many of the designers included in
the book intentionally manipulate and distort traditional rules and ideas with a
playful and experimental verve. Regular presents this new generation of creative
excellence from Switzerland, Germany and the Netherlands, synonymous to tradition
with a minimalist tradition and precision of detail and from France, Great
Britain and the USA.
Through abundant visuals and illuminating texts accompanying each featured
project, this expansive volume provides an in depth look at current trends in contemporary
graphic design that are influencing visual culture."

Form finding, in model, at Dybbølsbro | Vesterbro | Copenhagen
At the moment i'm trying to get a grip of the project I'm working on at school.
This is my latest model, made in 1mm card board. It's approximately 65cm long, and I see it as a three dimentional drawing trying to establish potential lines, surfaces and volumes, to get on with the process.
I still don't know where I'm going with this...

Leisure Me
My friend Henric asked me a couple of weeks ago if I wanted to design a record cover for his leisure-project called Leisure Me. I really respect his talent in music and was proud to get to do him this favor. His music is some really funky shit, with vocals processed in Autotune.
My approach to the task was to find the key words for the design when listening to the music. I gave Henric the words: "laser", "sexy" and "space". He thought I was right on target, and left me with free hands.
I started by doing the mouth, the creator of the lyrics, as a center piece of the design. From this everything evolves. I got my girlfriend, Malin, to pose as a model for the mouth. It didn't take much nagging.
I always think of Zapp singer Roger Troutman, when I hear vocals that are processed in the computer, and I really love how he sings with a tube, connected to his "Talk-box" in the side of his mouth. This reference lead to that the band name came out from the side of the mouth, like Rogers tube.
The mouth is free floating in space with laser transforming lyrics to light in a sexy manner.
