The Greatest Brandversations
This is a project created by Stefan Asafti, a designer from Romania and it’s a project is about brands – the great brands of the modern world – which have build quite a history for themselves as the years went by. The branderversations is the creation of each logo using their rival logo. What? I know, check out the post and you will understand and appreciate it better.
There have always existed disputes among the competing parties, divergent opinions, while the fans of each brand were convinced that theirs was the best product. Last, but not least, the rivals have even conducted ad campaigns against the competing brands. This project mostly approaches the visual “conversations” between the company logos and the ways that they influence each other, hence the name of the project, Brandversations. It is a parallel between the modern and the old, some of the slogans dating back to the 40s and 50s.
I have switched the slogans of the brands amongst themselves, the goal of this being to give them further meaning and to create a sort of a confusion. It is surprising how logos can influence other logos. The truth is that each pair of rivals has something in common, that something which has helped them to build one identity upon the other, this way becoming the biggest brands.
Completing this project has taken a lot of time and a lot of patience on my part. Each little bit of the final image has been moved and resized manually in order to maintain a correct and balanced composition and layout of the elements.

Beautiful Illustrations by Robb Mommaerts
Beautiful Illustrations by Robb Mommaerts:
It’s awesome to see that some illustrators got their style really well determined and worked. One of them is Robb Mommaerts that’s got a kind of cartoonish style, reminding me a lot of those 50’s style illustration, which is beautiful.
Believe me when I say that these are only a few among the dozens of pieces Robb’s got in his DeviantART page, so I totally recommend you to visit it to check a longer range of his work. It’s definitely worth the visit. Also, if you know any other illustrators as good as Robb, please, tell us! We’d love to know. I hope you enjoy these! Cheers. 😉

Hand-lettering typography by Jon Contino
Hand-lettering typography by Jon Contino:
In a era where most of the typography is digital made, hand-lettering can give a hell of a charming to a design. So it is the work of Jon Contino, some may call it retro, I just think it’s quite stylish and remarkable.
If you want to know more about Jon and his artworks, please access his Personal Website.
As a New York native, Jon Contino has been under the influence of corporate mass marketing and inspirational street art since his first breath. Not surprisingly, he has garnered considerable attention for his unique approach to design utilizing hand-drawn lettering and typographic illustration in conjunction with a modern, yet minimalistic sensibility (Jon’s Website).
