saw SEA

Bryan Edmondson came over to the studio this week to talk about his work at SEA design. They’re just over the road in Farringdon so he didn’t have to come far. It was great stuff, lots and lots of the achingly beautiful design work which they are known for and maybe just a little too much Helvetica. They do a great deal of work for paper company GF Smith, which every designer is probably familiar with but still looks lovely every time you see it…

And a wonderful logo type for a bar called OQO, based on cocktail glasses from above…

…loved this identity for Sansaw which flexes with all the different tree sillhouettes. Bryan told us he doesn’t like things to stay the same as he gets bored easily.

Their work for screenprint studio K2 is another example, with a different usage of the logo shapes every time.

You really should visit their site and check out these projects and more at a larger size. It’s always sexy stuff. Meanwhile, here’s something which isn’t on their site yet, a lovely new screenprinted poster for GF Smith which Bryan gave away to the person who asked the most interesting question.

It wasn’t me.

Gutted I didn’t get to see this one, looked like a good un! Was a poster done for it?

Richard

Yes, Jonny did the poster and very nice it was too.

The talk was great, I think it was perhaps the exact opposite of the Michael Peters D&AD one the other week.

In fact if you threw Bryan Edmondson and Michael Peters together I think they would annihilate each other at the quantum level…

Sean

I would pay good money see that ‘quantum’ annihilation… Richard you have got a way with words aye! ; )

Jonny, ping us a peek?
