Spanish agency Erretres has created a cheeky new brand for a Madrid tapas Bar. The bar seeks to position canned food products as healthy and simple. The only ingredients necessary are the finest products on the face of this earth, the maximum respect for how they are prepared and the minimum interference possible by man in their presentation. Hence they came up with the name Nudista (Nude) and created the brand around the idea “The best product does not need clothes”.

Bold & Bold have created a lovely glitchy identity for Channel 4’s short form film series Random Acts in collaboration with 4 Creative. In particular it’s a really clever use of the new Channel 4 brand typeface Horseferry – flipping between the various cuts of the type to create a random glitchy feel to all text. Also the RA condensed monogram for social media is such a simple reduction.

Really lovely identity for Australia Design Radio by Christopher Doyle & Co. The shape of Australia is represented by the visual language of graphic equalizers. When the radio station is on-air then the graphic equalizer moves, then returns to the shape of the continent when off-air. Simple, clever and beautifully crafted. Definitely want one of those T-shirts.
