What creates a spark?

This Saturday, at the University of Houston, is 2007 DESIGN IN THE FAST LANE sponsored by the Texas chapters of AIGA. If you live in Texas or surrounding you should come out and check it out yo, it's going to be great. Christian Helms, from The Decoder Ring Design Concern (thedecoderring) is the keynote speakers, followed up by an all-star cast of great Texas Designers. I designed most of the collateral for the event. For more information or to register, go to dflhouston.

Below: The first is an email blast sent out to help students "save-the-date." Second and Third, are front and back of the poster that was mailed out to all Texas AIGA members, third is a final reminder sent through email from AIGA Houston to all members (not designed by me, but based off my designs). The idea for all collateral, was that every small thing you do, can inspire you somehow. Mowning the yard creates a spark, drinking bad coffee creates a spark, that soggy bowl of cereal creates a spark. Pictures taken by polaroid to make them even more "mundane." Type: Trade Gothic, a mundane font in the eyes of Tibor Kalman. Green and Orange used to make the collateral look more "vintage."
