THE COOLING OF RUSSIAN DESIGN, WEB AND ADVERTISING
Some very hot graphics and design are coming out of Russia and the Ukraine. Sitting here in StrawberryFrog New York, I am glued to the very cool studios along the Volga. Or should I say Nile...as in Nile Studio, a very hot shop in a very cold landscape, with a very funky website. Some of the most interesting rising stars can be found on a wonderful and inspiring blog entitled the design collector, with the web address http://designcollector.ru - my favs include
would be interesting to see how effective design centric advertsing is in these countries. i currently work for a big brand that feels Russians and EE countries are behind the irony and design of Western communications.
