Celebrations were in order as we took Silver at this years Gullblyanten. The award was for the brand communication project that Pål Laukli and I did for Canon. Gold went to the George Clooney ad' which we could never contend with so it's a result to be proud of. Well done to all the team!

I make no apologies for my praise of IBM's brand management, it's a skill to make such a humongous company communicate in such a single-minded way. These "Outcomes" campaign by Noma Bar is one of the latest instalments in the Big Blue turnaround.

There's been a lot of chat about the new DC brand identity by Landor, with criticism declaring the "page turning" look suggesting the outmoded comic page format. Personally I don'y know what all the fuss is about, I think its a smart way to subtly acknowledge their heritage whilst providing a perfect opportunity to provide some animation for the digital media. The best feature of the identity (even though MTV have done it for decades) is the facility to keep it alive with ever changing imagery. Who could begrudge DC showing off character like Batman and Watchmen. Nice one Landor!

Great to see the development of Hewlett Packard in the safe hands of Moving Brands. As I recall the last version of their identity wasn't done too long ago, but this more streamlined version suits the simpler direction the brand is taking. This seems like a great way for HP to assert themselves after endless product launches with very little 'joined up thinking' - watch this space...

Here's some pics from the party Pål Laukli and I hosted to launch our exhibition for Canon and the launch of Maya Vik's solo LP. Over 900 people attended on a wet Wednesday evening and it was a late night by all accounts. Nico Larsen was conspicuously on trend as usual. A big thanks to everybody involved for their support and contribution. We also auctioned off one of the prints which fetched over 30000,kr- for Norsk Folkehjelp where the money will go to clearing land mines, so an extra big thank you for all who generously donated.

More great type driven design from Triboro, this time for the Black Denim brand. Ultra functional, but don't sit down on your white sofa...

A superb slice of utilitarian branding withe the product and communication in complete harmony. Watch out for Unit Portables, they'll be bigger than your Pantone mugs! Great design work by Kurppa Hosk over in Stockholm.
