This Is Not Art 2008

Small Studio has won the pitch for This Is Not Art 2008. We're very excited, and although we can't show you the winning concepts (yet), we can show you one that didn't make it.

Dandelion Wine CD

Dandelion Wine, an ethereal post-dreampop band from Melbourne approached Small Studio to create the artwork for their latest Album, Selected Anachronisms. the artwork consists of a digipack case and 16 page booklet, Taking inspiration from the album's title, the lyrics dark themes the bands interest in symmetry, geometrical concepts and astronomical/astrological themes.

Scruffy Bunch Tours Brochure

Scruffy Bunch tours approached Small Studio to design a brochure for their Yarra Valley winery and microbrewery tours. Their brief was to capture the youth market, and express the tour's no-nonsense, down to earth and light hearted approach. Small Studio employed clean layouts and whimsical illustrations to this effect, resulting in a great design that stands out from the usual crop in the hotel brochure stand.

Advanced Publishing Systems Website

Small Studio recently completed the design and development for Advanced Publishing Systems new website.

The whole site was developed in Silverstripe, an off the shelf, super user friendly CMS — We were surprised to discover the client updating the site before we'd even conducted the training session!

Check out the site here.

Fun and Games

During studio down time we like to keep the creative juices flowing with self initiated projects and experiments. We'll be using Small Stuff to share these with you from time to time. Today's piece is a 2 hour illustration exercise by Small Studio's resident illustration bot, Todd.
