‘Red stripe’ wallpaper set. Desktop, iPhone and iPad formats. I’m off the monthly wallpaper series as I actually have work to do at my new job so I don’t need to fill my day with designing wallpapers. But I’ll still create some now and then when I’m between projects. Please enjoy and share.

I discovered Marius’ work off of the wallpaper site Kuuva. He is a graphic designer from Holland with amazing style. His pattern work is awesome and his colour palettes are perfect. I am hoping to buy some of his prints one day. 

Here are some samples of his work. More can be found on his website at: http://www.mariusroosendaal.com/

Identity design for wilderness survival company. They provide training for rugged-types interested in learning how to survive in the wild. I was responsible for choosing the name as well and researched Canadian geography and northern foilage until I discovered the town of Resolute in Nunavut which I think perfectly represents the company. By definition it means determination of spirit and it also connotates isolation and resolve.

I wanted the identity to have a slightly vintage but definitely wintery feel. The logo can be separated for versatility, as shown on the home page mock. The identity design is very minimal, to convey a feeling of isolation. Large images of Canadian landscapes with vintage photo-filter treatment.

Typographische Monatsblätter (TM) is a Swiss typography magazine that started in 1933 and has just released their 882nd monthly edition. I am particularly fond of these ones from the 60s. Check out this website archiving cover designs from 1960s-90s here. The designs reflect the social and design evolution through the decades.

Kuvva is a genius little site created by two designers in Amsterdam. It’s basically a site where you can download free wallpaper designs from international artists, illustrators, designers and photographers. I just like browsing it for inspiration mostly. They also created another fantastic free site I use every day, wetransfer.com.
