Hot off the press.
We’re gearing up for this weekend’s launch at the Buenos Aires Yogathon, so I designed a table banner, and these fun features came out of it. – Brooks

An illustration I did for my friend Ansil who is moving away next week.
This is a new thing that I’m doing!
The first episode of the Affinity Vlog!
I’m Brooks Hassig, and this little bloggy thing is going to be a fun way to hear stories from the spiritual path, discuss knowledge, and get stoked.
Since this is the first one, I’m just introducing myself to my one-world family and talkin about what to expect. Thanks for checking it out!

Another one from Carmen. A video portrait? Heck yeah. This makes me think of holograms and the future, but is delightfully low tech. All her effects here are done analogue, in camera.

This girl is amazing. You’ve gotta check out camera jockey Carmen Daneshmandi.
Her pictures and videos were so accessible, somehow so un-special, that the unusual or artistic forms seemed plausible. I was transported, disbelief suspended, to the place that you see when you take those photos. I don’t know. There’s just this confidence and elegance that is somehow simultaneously humble and hip.

A shout out to old school prints with new school thought. Looking forward to this weekend away from Seattle, I need a change of scenery and to gain back some of my creative focus.
Thanks for being a part of Design by Seeing’s inaugural year! I’m looking forward to a new year an adventure, growth, and great design, and I hope you’ll be a part of it.
Enjoy your holiday!

New Wainwright Images Identity
Eric Wainwright runs Wainwright Images, a photography studio out of Portland, OR that focuses of weddings, fashion and personal shoots.
As a Christmas present, I decided to spruce up his identity system. The new logo’s purpose was to be a stamp that let his excellent photos shine. Many photographers plaster their photos with their logo. And let’s be honest, most of them are great at what they do, and not so great at having a logo.
I gave Eric a system for logo placement that will work for different contexts to create a cohesive feel across his work.
Furthermore, have you done any hunting for photographer logos? The ones that make the cut on the lists of design inspiration blogs reek of cliche camera imagery and cute visual puns. I wanted Wainwright Images to get something a little better than that. The mark is simple, a geometric pattern that has the opportunity to sit in the corner of traditional wedding photos and flashy fashion shoots alike.
The type is Baskerville SemiBold. It had to be refined, but I really wanted the mark to be the hero, so I left the type as is. I wanted the type to practically disappear at small sizes and just exist as background noise so as not to detract from the photo.
It’s feels nice to help a friend out, and even nicer when a holiday can justify it. Here’s hoping that your holidays are full of friends, family, and a little design help.
Merry Christmas!
