Brian Mc Laughlin Personal RSS Feed http://www.behance.net/BrianMclaughlin Yoshi is a new ‘T’ shirt design label. The brand needed to tap into a youth sub-culture whilst also maintaining a sense of quality and ‘street’ credibility. The final logo design is a simple ‘Y’ facilitating the company name and two colour swatches. It is a simple design that would translate well as a print or stitched logo. The illustrations for Yoshi where largely influenced by 1950’s animation. Incorporating stylised cartoon design with some bizarre products resulted in a humorous yet stylish illustration series. http://www.behance.net/Gallery/Yoshi-illustration/240096 Yoshi is a new ‘T’ shirt design label.

'Nanuuk' aspires to create a social network that involves the entire family promoting environmental issues. My role on the project was to develop a group of central characters that would appeal to children and adults alike as well designing a friendly/fun interface to the service. http://www.behance.net/Gallery/Nanuuk/242352 'Nanuuk' is a project that I worked on in conjunction with Fjord.

Acting as a near future example of mobile interaction, the brief was to design a concept that was visually rich whilst also demonstrating a function that would take advantage of new technologies such as touchscreen mobile devices and GPS. The concept became a geographical shopping experience, imagine Google Maps combined with online shopping. By selecting a product the application would search online and populate a map with appropriate items for sale. The world map itself would morph dependent on retail activity. For the visuals I wanted play with a very flat graphics. On a top level information appears abstractly using colour and shape to differentiate functions. An added twist to the concept was an ability to scroll through time. Matching antique items and collectables with their year. The aim was to be able to combine information and entertainment with appropriate advertising. In designing the time wheel and housing I looked to retro radios and audio players for inspiration. A simple and minimal design that had ‘bling’ appeal. http://www.behance.net/Gallery/GSMA-Touch-Screen-Demo/251520 Aspirational 3GSM demo.
