Inspiration board

By admin in Brand new heroes, Logos, Marketing, Personal, Remarkable, Spotting, Uncategorized

About 2 years ago I was so fed up with not being able to find a nice piece of ‘art’  for my study, I decided to make one myself. Not so much a Van Gogh as it is an inspiration board, containing visuals on the things surrounding me, inspiring me.
A lot can change in these [...]

Nike: Just do it again

By jortpossel in Marketing, Remarkable, Spotting, Visual identity, Visual support

They did it again. Why is it always the usual suspects that surprise with stunning ads, powerful artwork and messaging loaded with stopping power? Why do I not throw this email away immediately? Not because I like running so much, trust me.

Dit kwam ik tegen in etalage in Montrose, Schotland. Een mooi voorbeeld van opmaken, opmaken en niet nadenken.

It is time to make the difference. Is you wish to [...]

By jortpossel in Branding, Brands, Logos, Marketing, Uncategorized, Visual identity, Visual support

This week’s edition of adformatie shows us how tourist agencies don’t take any effort for disctinctive positioning.

Are they all done by the same art director? No diversity in typography and color and all seem to be the product of a passion for painting.

Facebook’s Beacon does not know me

By jortpossel in Marketing, Social media, The internet

With Beacon, Facebook is supposed to know me, right? Yes, it says so on my Facebook home: “Reach the exact target audience you want with relevant targeted ads”. Well thanks you, but no I do not live in the UK and I am definately not looking to remove my hair with any lasers, thank you.
