Zim and Zou Paper Wonders

I love the work this French duo, Lucia Thomas and Thibault Zimmermann of Zim &Zou. Their projects are fresh and different with a contemporary approach to graphic design utilizing paper sculpture. Their latest work, Back to Basics is a brightly colored retro scene of camera's, cell phones and tape decks. It took them a year to get this to come to life and their still working on it! They have done some really great work, check em out!

Damn, that's awesome!

Sweet.

Papercraft Infographic Book- WOW!

Designer Tien-Min Liao created the book Ilha Formosas, a bookmark and poster as a self promotion piece. The book is wonderful.

Made up of several paper craft illustrations Tien uses in info graphics to translate facts about Taiwan. Great idea, beautifully executed.

Love the digital work of young designer Dan Mountford. His use of typography, color and negative space makes for some pretty nice posters. Just so lovely. You can purchase some of his work here and see more of it here.
