The good guys at Raw Design have let us know that the Christmas By Colour posters and wrapping paper are now available to buy. CBC is essentially a xmas-themed Pantone-swatch mashup, where Raw invited designers and illustrators to invent xmas colours, along with a pantone colour. As you can see above the final outcome looks ace, and would be a smart addition to any studio!
You can get yourself a poster and wrapping paper for £10 from the CBC shop, and to top it all off, all proceeds will be donated to C.A.L.M. So you’ll be doing something nice for xmas too!

This year for xmas we’ve lined up a nice treat for you all. We’ve asked designers and illustrators from all over the world to donate items to put into Selection Boxes, which we’ll be giving out to randomly selected lucky readers!
Every few days over the next week and half or so we’ll be adding new boxes for you to admire and to have a chance to win them all you have to do is register your interest! We’ll pick all the winners in time for the xmas post as well! (NB. for non-UK readers we can’t guarantee they’ll be there for xmas, sorry!)
We’ve got some amazing goodies already… limited edition prints, signed drawings, vinyl toys, t-shirts, postcards… all sorts of stuff straight from your favourite artists!
Sooooo….. Check out the TC xmas project 2008 micro-site!!!!
And if you can’t wait to find out what’s going to be in the boxes then you can sneak a pic on our facebook group.

Matt W. Moore, the guy behind MWM Graphics, doesn’t shy away from a bold colour or two. In 2008 alone his distinctive, geometric designs have wrapped their way around Mountain Dew bottles, decorated Vodafone packaging, been plastered over snowboards and found their way into a Cadbury’s exhibition! And he’s just launched his 2009 Calendar Poster Set, which is 4 posters for the 4 seasons. They’re printed on extra-heavy poster stock and are extremely limited-edition (only 100 pieces), so if you want a slice of the geometric magic then get in their quick!

Jeremyville have launched a new range of Sketchels for you to enjoy. Sketchels are custom-designed satchel bags and they gained a whole lotta press when Genevieve Gauckler teamed up with the Jeremyville team and international man of music Beck to produce the Beck Sketchel. The new series features work from our good friend Ben The Illustrator, Yupyland, One Side Zero and loads more. For everything you need to know about Sketchels you should head on over to the Sketchel site, where there’s also a full gallery… just look for any which are marked as the new smaller size… they’re the new ones! In the very near future we’ll be publishing an interview we’ve done with Jeremy as well, so check back soon!

If illustrators made cakes and chocolates what would they look like and how would they taste? The Belgium based, Eugene and Louise Bakery, is the answer to this sweet, sugary, candy sprinkled question. Even though quite old news, (their last product being posted back in March) I only discovered them recently, so I thought there must be people out there needing this tasty bit of knowledge too.
Dreamed up by design studio and lovely couple, Eugene and Louise. There seems to be chocolate treats and marzipan character madness from the site, but no price or other details, so I’m not sure if they are just for exhibition, or we can actually take a bite out these lovely pieces of art.

For a whole lotta years now, eBoy have occupied the position of pixel-art masters amongst the design world. And even to this day are still producing huge scale pixel artwork such as their work for Coke in Dublin recently. Not so long ago they took the big step of bringing out their own range of Peecol vinyl toys, but now they’ve gone a step further and brought out the rather snazzy looking Blockbob Eater, made out of Swiss maple wood and limited to just 75 pieces!
