Where new design goes to blossom and lost design goes to live again.

LET ARTISTS MAKE ART

Here’s a pretty little thang by the name of invite. A typographic solution for Will Hudson and Alex Beck aka “Hudsonbec” for a recent UK exhibition that included a giant figure-8 skateboard ramp. This particular typographic show-of-skill was designed and executed by designer Mario Hugo of France (somewhere in France, location hidden!)

The duo “Hudsonbec” I did not recognize at first. However upon further inspection I turned up their most recent project: http://itsnicethat.com/ ! Well you’d have to be a fool not to know what that is!

The actual object is letterpressed and postcard-sized. Gold ink on a dark, mysterious charcoal color paper stock. So mysterious that it makes the gold basically explode! Right off the page.
