Eclectic 'Effenaar' venue branding

 

Really love the eclectic branding of the Effenaar Venue in Eindhoven by Dutch agency Fabrique (designers now at JongeMeesters). They've created a slice of controlled chaos that's really fresh with a heads up to the 80's. The edgy graphic compositions and bold typographic assortments allow every performance's promotional matter to feel individual but part of something bigger. Really fun, perfect for a young crowd and I bet the designers had a riot doing the designs.

A Retro pick and mix - on the Retrofuturs blog

 

You never know what you'll find on the Retrofuturs blog, it shows a real mixed bag from the last couple of centuries. Stéphane uses some of these as the basis for his design and illustration - here are some of my favourites from the blog... http://retrofuturs.posterous.com/
