I have been using the Rutgers Identity Manual is a great model of a well thought out guide. I have been using it as a model to check mine against as I develop each section. I know a few others have also found this guide and I think it has helped us all.
A designer I know in town recommended going to this art show next week. It is art from designers in town. The opening is Friday, November 14, 6:00-11:00 pm. It is only open for the weekend at this photo studio (Studio Chambers).
This is a designer I admire. Their site is nothingsomething and they have a wealth of examples of good work for identity and other projects. This is a set of identity materials for a store. Very nice, stylized design.
So, Ben & Jerry's is doing a promo on Tuesday that is similar to a concept I experimented with for a voting campaign last Fall. FREE ICE CREAM on VOTING DAY! My vote's for Half Baked (no intentional candidate reference).
