The Weekly Nugget
You know what day it is — Friiiiiiday which means we are back with more exciting design trends, and inspiration that caught our teams eyes. Here are our 6 hot takes and inspiration for the week!
1. Typefinder
Typefinder by bigbump offers it’s own version of Memory, a simple and somewhat addictive game around font faces. Players are required to find all the fonts in a minimum of rounds all while discovering a selection of awesome typographies.
2. The Spray-On Dress
At their Spring Summer 2023 show during Paris Fashion Week, the Parisian fashion label Coperni employed Spanish company Fabrican, who specialise in spraying-on fabric technology to spray an outfit onto model, Bella Hadid who had a white dress live-sprayed onto her body.
3. Ying Gao Designs Robotic Clothes
In a world where robotics work in harmony with fashion, Ying has created a bewilderingly futuristic collection of garments with moving, floral features. The 2 5 2 6 collection is mesmerising and almost science-fiction in the way that each piece twists, breathes and pops, simulating (effectively) the effects of virtual clothing.
4. Megan Thee Stallion’s Mental Health Site
Megan Thee Stallion has officially launched her Bad Bitches Have Bad Days Too website. It offers mental health resources named after her lyric on “Anxiety”. The platform features different types of resources, including helplines for various matters and therapy specifically for Black people.
5. Nike Taps into AI technology
For Nike’s 50th Anniversary, Nike, together with AKQA studios traveled back in time to create a match-up between Serena Williams from her first Grand Slam at the 1999 US Open versus her most recent at the 2017 Australian Open, using AI and machine learning. The goal was to gain insight on how Serena got to where she is today and how she keeps challenging the future.
6. Evolving the Olympic brand
The Olympic Games have one of the most widely recognised brands in the world. A new visual system has been created to bolster the brand’s core values, all the while enhancing consistency and recognition through numerous applications. The project would become the first of its kind since the modern Games began in 1896 — the development of a global Olympic identity designed for all mediums and channels.
