Stefano Asili graphic design / Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy
The ZX Spectrum pixel font never ends to give me satisfaction. I had already used to call the weaving in some work of recent years. Since then I’ve been working to design sardinian traditional tapestries and rugs using typography. I show the last one, dedicated to the great Roberto Petza, chef of the “star” restaurant S’Apposentu, in Siddi .
La Genovese gomme is a leading firm in the reconstruction of rubber tires. The curves and thickness of the bold, strong logo, designed by LGg’s owner and president, Ing. Adriano Balduzzi, during the 1970s, were slightly updated. Pictured here are two vans with the old and the new version of the logo.
The new logo for the 2nd level Master in Bioinformatics at Cagliari University plays with the end of the word Bioinformatica, the letters CA, (which identify the place where it is held), together with all the I and O inside the same name, seen as the 1 and 0 of the binary system. I know, I’ve already used this trick. But it works, so why not?
The theme of the 2011 International Graphics Week was “Trame e Tessuti” (“Textures and fabrics”). The event took place in Sardinia (with AGI sponsorship), a land of great textile traditions. The poster (1) can be anamorphically read in the horizontal (2) and vertical (3) directions interlacing weft and warp. In one direction, TRAME E TESSUTI, in the other, AIAP DESIGN PER 2011CAGLIARI.
A picture catalogue of the exhibit that describes the city of Cagliari through images taken with the Hipstamatic application. The cover is made from the letters of the title shot on the computer screen with the same application.
