David Arias: Leuie Identity and Collateral

David Arias recently com­pleted this dreamy, whim­si­cal brand for Leuie, a com­pany that “cap­tures and cel­e­brates the won­der­ful joy of child­hood” through their beau­ti­ful line of products.

According to David:
It was an excit­ing moment when I had the oppor­tu­nity to be part of some­thing that was once Sarah & Jacquelyn’s dream, Leuie. At its very essence, Leuie can be described as a world of cre­ativ­ity and imag­i­na­tion for chil­dren. Sarah & Jacquelyn believe that it is impor­tant to nur­ture and enve­lope children’s lives with love, dreams and imag­i­na­tion. Their search for items that encom­passed such a spirit turned into a quest that brought them to develop a bou­tique that would ful­fill the need and desire both locally and abroad. Their inven­tory con­sists of curated items that are well con­sid­ered and well made, that cap­tured the beau­ti­ful spirit of chil­dren – their delight, sur­prise and exploratory nature.

The mag­i­cal look­book pho­tog­ra­phy and film was cap­tured by James Moes, a pho­tog­ra­pher who I’ve been a fan of since I got engaged sev­eral years ago. Be sure to check out the rest of his work — it is moody, roman­tic and just plain gor­geous.

End of Work iPad Mini Covers

For the first prod­uct in a forth­com­ing line of “designer type” prod­ucts, Sydney, Australia-based stu­dio End of Work has pro­duced a series of iPad mini and note­book cov­ers. The typo­graphic design is cre­ated from a col­lage of dis­carded street sign graph­ics, printed on thick can­vas and bound into a self-seal pouch. They are not yet avail­able to the pub­lic, but I will be sure to let you know as soon as they can be purchased.
