Applied Illustration

This is Steve Harrington's work with Nike. This is his rework of the classic logo and i think it looks excellent.
it's been subtly applied but with lots of small details. Such as the applied pattern of little shapes  in the Nike text forming a
granulated colour. The crazy tree with the spaced out eyes is also a lovely addition the colours all work nicely and i would wear this over a plain nike logo tee shirt any day.

These are both Bendik Kaltenborns work. The top one is an album cover which I think looks great.
The colours are bold and vibrant and the lines, waves and shapes bring a playful aesthetic to it.
This cover matches the tone of the artists song perfectly in my opinion. Todd Terje uses a lot of
bright synths which reflect well on the cover.
This is an applied Illustration that i am very much interested.
In this application by Andy Rementer  he has turned one of his illustrations into a 3D wooden figure.
This serves less of a purpose then some of the others but i think it would be a great decoration.
It looks like it is well painted and the aspect of 3D really helps show off Andy's shapes which look
cool. The presentation box also looks great to i love the matched pattern on the box to the trousers very neat.
Mikkeller Ales and Beers always have fantastic illustrations by Bendik Kaltenborn on.
They are extremely striking and would most definitely get someones attention and this one is one of my personal favourites.
The 3 colours work very well and the can also has great form and arrangement of shapes. I'm not too sure what's going on in this illustration but it looks like the character is smoking the hops and barley and it's hit hard. Even if you don't fully know what's happening in the illustration though i still think it wouldn't make you uninterested in the product.  
This is a lovely pot by a ceramic artist Laura Bird. This is pot has great characterisation to it.
the paint on it makes it look homemade and and has great wavy lines on it giving it a nice pattern.
I think this pot is great as it holds a major purpose of keeping your small things together but also doubles up as a lovely illustrative decoration.
