WHAT IS SO UNIQUE ABOUT CASE STUDIES?

Rather then using the usual blurbs that “better” explain individual projects  “we did this for them” or  “they said we were the best”, the comments you’ll find along the featured samples are more like blog articles inspired by everyday work. Some of the illustrations are directly related to the blog but that is not always the case. On some pages they are merely a design sample.

Homage to Andrei Tarkovsky

Every project is a journey on its own. There is a starting point, desire or need to reach certain goals, then there is a creative process and, eventually, there is a finished product. Along that journey there are lots of challenges. There are good and bad ideas, endless ways to do something well and to spoil it, there are time constrains and limited budgets, but, the most importantly, there is a will to make something extraordinary and that is what really matters.  Before we start that journey we don't know how is this going to end up but we hope that our experience and our knowledge are going to make the best out of it. 


In 1973, Russian director Andrei Tarkovsky made a movie called Andrei Rublev about  a monk/fresco painter who travels around the early fifteen century Russia. In one of the stories (The Bell Casting) a young boy takes on a big challenge of casting the most beautiful bell that his kingdom has ever seen. 

But, will it ring?

I have shown this part of the movie to many of my clients hoping that it would make them reflect in a more conceptual way on what we are about to achieve and their reactions are different all the time.

It is just like the creative process itself.
