A good solid fisting

Graphic designers are often perceived as too-cool-for-school posturing types. But there are some things that ‘creatives’ will still lose their shit over. If you’re under thirty, then that’s probably fluro bicycle parts for your fixie. If you’re over thirty, it’s probably the hot intern. But, for many designers, the thing that really gets them excited is a big printer’s fist. There’s nothing like a well-placed pointing finger, boldly inserted, to really make a designer squeal with pleasure.

Great illustration by Hanna Backman. Fisting courtesy of A.D.

Gut Oggau

We’ve come across Gut Oggau’s great branding before, but having come across illustrator Anja Jager’s website, we can post some of the portraits in detail…

Gorgeous bespoke Bodoni-stencil-style font for Pazo Baion wine cultural foundation in Pontevedra, Spain. Maybe Grogger could become a ‘wine cultural foundation’? We’re cultured – some of us can even read in our head.

Bowled Over

Having stayed up until the early hours following the Guardian’s excellent Over-by-Over coverage of the Ashes, savouring the moment of total victory as one savours a fine Romanée-Conti and/or the can of Scrumpy Jack in the fridge you’d forgotten about, the Grogger team were a tad delirious when arriving at GHQ this morning.

So imagine our scepticism when Jamie, our pet quiff, announced we had been mentioned in the hallowed weekly journal of design that is Design Week as a ‘Best of the Web’!?

Best of the Web, seriously? Is their web broken or something? Is their ISP China? Have they not seen Girls with Glasses!? But, thanks all the same. We’d better pull our socks up just in case someone actually reads an article in DW that isn’t about themselves.
