I finally had a moment to download, install and test drive Flipboard on my iPad. I am speechless. It’s another one of these “woah-I-am-touching-the-future-moments”. Here’s a video explaining what Flipboard does:

Leo was monumental in the creation and direction of Vancouver’s Winter Olympic brand experience for the 2010 games. It will be remembered as one of the best visual palettes ever created for the games, as beautiful and memorable as Athens and Torino’s visual identities.

Leo’s philosophy towards telling a story that is honest, simple, funny and most of all emphatically strong, has drawn great affection towards brand Vancouver.

This month, legendary French chef Pierre Koffmann returns to London with his new restaurant, Koffmanʼs, at The Berkeley hotel in Knightsbridge.

London design studio Construct has created the identity and branding.

The identity and branding take their inspiration from two sources: French bistro vernacular and a ʻsignaturesʼ theme. The bistro influence can be seen in the use of a curved logotype, a condensed typeface and the dominance of red. The ʻsignatureʼ elements are literal and symbolic: Koffmannʼs own handwritten signature sits across the full range of design applications, from exterior awnings to menus, whilst a little pig, separated from his feet at the top of the menu, references Koffmannʼs best known signature dish, pigʼs trotters.
