Visual Design that hits your funny bone!


Let’s kick off the fall with a batch of funny visuals that can distract the most serious visual designers as well as deadline-driven communication clients. We selected a range of cross platform media solutions to tickle your fancy.

1. Poster: I Shot the Serif
Bob Marley, who wrote this song, would be proud of this design. Perhaps they should have taken this into account when they designed the “Bob Marley typeface.”
You may buy the "I Shot the Serif" T-shirt Here.

2. Video: Font Conference
What if all of your favorite typefaces showed up at a meeting to give you feedback on your latest project?


3. Game: Web vs Webb
Word play that only a designer with a sense of humor could devise: This game asks if you can decipher whether terminology is from the World Wide Web or something that Jack Webb might have utteredbecause, that’s something you’ve been struggling with, right?


4. Video: Tipp-Ex
Wite out and Liquid Paper have always been an American designer’s best friend. Germany's “Tipp-Ex” shows us how to correct and revise our online experiences in this funny video promo. You can type in different words and get unexpected outcomes!


5. Photos: Cats online
We really made it in the blogoshere when an article from our blog was re-purposed on a blog with Cat Photos. The ultimate sign that you’ve arrived!


6. App: Fat Booth
We tell Jim, our Design Director, that he eats at elmo’s restaurant too often! Perhaps this latest photo will set him on the path to healthy eating. Get the app at iTunes.



7. Signage: Ladies and Gentlemen!
Speaking of elmo’s, check out their restroom signs. When he was thinner, Jim (above) flipped the “m” in the elmo logo over to change the men’s sign to the women’s sign. Make sure you’re right-side up when you answer nature’s call.


8. Shopping Bag Design: For the fitness craze!
TBWA, Istanbul shows us how shopping and design go hand in hand, so to speak.



9. Emoticon Design: For when you just can’t figure out what mood you’re in.
Canadian designer Josiah Jost of Siah Design created this.
