Logo Remix: Subzero, Moogle, Shell…Ring A Bell?

Most of these logos, created by gamer Steve Napierski, are remixed in a way that you would immediately recognize the real brand behind it, others might take a second look. I didn’t get Belmont = Dupont and Tonberry = Burberry at first, but might vary according to your exposure to those brands each and every day.

The bigger problem, for me at least, is to recognize the actual computer game (for ex. Subzero being a character from Mortal Kombat) which shows how firmly established brand logos are in my brain, and, that I obviously didn’t play enough games in my childhood :-)

Fotoshop by Adobé. Brilliant!

Following up on the older Dove advertisement from a couple of years ago here is an even greater, unreal and brilliant example of society’s standards of beauty. The commercial, created by filmmaker Jesse Rosten, cleverly satirizes the beauty and fashion industry and since it’s so professionally made it could even run on tv and probably a lot of people not into graphics would believe it.

Adobe App Pillows And Other Great Ones

The Great Collection of App Pillows

Even cooler than the temporarily sold-out Ctrl+Alt+Delete Pillows are the Adobe App Pillows for people working in the design industry or nerdy enough to enjoy them. The Fl (Flash) Pillows would fit my apartment best but actually I use Ps (Photoshop) a lot more.

Not interested? Check out the Scrabble or Graphic Pillows

In reality Photoshop would look like this

Ever wondered how Adobe Photoshop would look in real life?
Art Snob Solutions have rebuilt the software with natural, real materials. The color swatches, ruler, font panel, tool palette, … simply everything is handmade. This is NOT a photoshop job!

The build process can be seen in their online photo album.
