Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

Now here is a per­fect exam­ple of design that is both visu­ally inter­est­ing and incred­i­bly smart. For the rebrand­ing of dig­i­tal agency Manifest, Eight Hour Day took a con­cep­tual approach by explor­ing the notions of time, human expe­ri­ence, con­nec­tions and cre­ativ­ity. And as a result, in addi­tion to the usual brand­ing deliv­er­ables, the team also devel­oped an impres­sive 40-character glyph lan­guage, “an ever-evolving time­stamp and sup­ple­men­tal “chap­ter” marks, each of which rep­re­sent an area of dis­ci­pline or a core value.” I love how this all came together, in both con­cept and exe­cu­tion — there are so many lay­ers and details to uncover that I can’t pos­si­bly see it get­ting stale any time soon.
