This is one of M.A.C cosmetics Barbie Campaigns. Although the campaign is a year old, it is still one of my favourites. They have made the models literally look like Barbies with their flawless makeup, and the use of the colour hot pink (which is known for Barbie) throughout the image. The composition of this image is asymmetrical, but very clean. I like the background colour and find it complements the colours used in the models makeup.
What can I say about the design of this car? Only that is absolutely ridiculous in every good way possible. I LOVE this car, and is definitely my dream car. It is so incredibly sleek, sexy, and powerful. The exterior being black on a black interior body with black chrome rims is incredible. The suicide doors is just the cherry on top. It makes this already unique design even more stunning. This isn't just a car, it is a beautiful design of craftsmanship on wheels.
This is a classic symbol for all house/trance heads such as myself. It is a spin off of the "I heart NY" design. The logo is self explanatory and is quite popular in the House realm. I love it because it is simple, and the type face works well with the image of the heart. Also, this symbol uses my favourite colour combination of white, black, and red.
This is a very popular graffiti mural in my area of East End Toronto. I'm not sure if this was created by one graffiti artist or several. Overall the design is put well together as a collage. There are many elements in this piece that are very interesting to look at, but at the same time they work well with one another. On the right side of the mural you can see that the graffiti artist states that he or she is happy being from the "East Side" of Toronto, and probably is trying to represent that in their work.
This is a college done for Ed Hardy Swim ware. I love this design mostly because it is so colourful and put together well. This piece imitates the feel of tattoo design and Japanese paintings. You can tell that the piece is for swim ware (water) because of the Koi fish, water waves, and the mermaid sitting on the very center top of the piece. Beneath all the clutter of the design states the designers name in a yellow serif font face. The only part I find a bit confusing to have within this design is the panther beneath the mermaid.
This design of this BMW label was created by MJ Art Studio. Not only is BMW my second favourite car company (Lamborghini being first), the design is decked out in Swarovski crystals. I would die to have that embellished on my car (if I owned a BMW). The logo itself is great because it is simple with its design using circular shapes, and the colours of white, black, and a royal blue. The logo is symmetrical, and looks very good on the car itself because it does not take away your attention when looking at a BMW.


This is an ad campaign designed for Juicy Couture Clothing. It's quite old but I still love it till today. I find it so feminine, sophisticated, and really exemplifying the brand of "Juicy" couture. The models pink lips are perfection that holds a jeweled piece that displays the brands name clearly.
