Kirk Originals opens!

Eyewear aficionados descended en masse to the opening of Campaign's latest project - the Kirk Originals flagship store on London's Conduit Street. A fine evening was had - if a little cramped.. the band the frames and the Winkies all received rave reviews!

Here's a little walk through video of the R-E-C-O-N-N-E-C-T exhibition that Future Laboratory commissioned us to design, which was part of the Heimtextil exhibition over in Frankfurt, Germany.

Super Beautiful take on a billboard_

Words via weheart.co.uk


Approaching the US/Canadian border from either country, you’re faced with countless billboards advertising products, Duty Free and promoting the nation with images of flags and national pride. As they give way to directional signage and customs related notices, you’ll now find a surreal examination of advertising, architecture and the environment, a negative billboard that frames nothing other than nature. 


Sitting between Blaine, Washington and the highway to Vancouver, Non-Sign II – created by Seattle based Lead Pencil Studio and commissioned by the US Government’s ‘Excellence in Design’ program – is a beautiful, thought-provoking installation that took 9 months to construct in their Seattle studio, with small sections being trucked to the site and stitched together over a 2 week period. Challenging, innovative and more engaging than any traditional advertising could be, Lead Pencil’s invisible billboard makes for possibly the most inspiring border crossing you’ll experience…

Folding Plug - Min Kyu Choi

Bit of an old story, but got brought up in conversation andthought it deserved to be back in the public conscious. If you have never seen this before, you're in for a design-based orgasm.

Min Kyu Choi a Korean graduate from the Royal College of Art, designed this little piece of genius; a folding plug, which apart from the obvious travelling advantages, [Which in itself, merits its title of 'Brit Insurance Design of the Year'] it's the nifty multiplug adaptor and USB adaptor that elevates it to genius. I expect Min is going to make an absolute packet once it clears BSI regulations.

Check out the link for all the development work!

The Visualisers at campaign are most certainly weeping tears of a mixture of joy and incomprehension at the staggering feat achieved in this 11minute 3d rendered masterpiece by Alex Roman. It deserves to be viewed in full HD glory in the link attached. Simply stunning.

Hoxton Street Monster Supplies

A fantastic project in Hoxton, go and enjoy and admire the wonderful work.

tep inside, and you’ll find a whole range of essential products for monsters.

The Ministry follows the model of the 826 centres: a writing centre where kids aged 8-18 can get one-to-one tuition with professional writers and other volunteers; with the centres being housed behind fantastical shop fronts designed to fire the kids’ imaginations (and generate income for the writing centres).

In our case, the shop is Hoxton Street Monster Supplies – Purveyor of Quality Goods for Monsters of Every Kind.
