Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

I spot­ted this project over on Allan’s blog yes­ter­day and imme­di­ately knew I had to share here as well. I’m a huge fan of Eight Hour Day’s work, and this new iden­tity sys­tem they devel­oped fro Engler Studio, an inte­rior design firm, is no excep­tion. Everything about the con­cept and design is right up my alley. Here’s what EHD has to say about the project:

We wanted to cre­ate a brand for Engler Studio that embraced its inte­rior design skills, as well as its indi­vid­ual design per­son­al­ity. The main ele­ment of the brand is a graphic com­bi­na­tion of pat­terns that over­lap each other; they rep­re­sent the images and col­ors you might find on an inte­rior designer’s inspi­ra­tion board, and also refer to the play of pat­terns, col­ors, light and shad­ows in a beau­ti­fully designed room. The pat­terns can be assem­bled in var­i­ous com­bi­na­tions, depend­ing on mood, usage, and need. The end result: a sys­tem that speaks to clas­sic design and an inno­v­a­tive aesthetic.
