Previous / Next image (1 of 2) A1 two-sided poster for the exhibition NAT during Tokyo Graphic Passport 23–29 September 2010. Participating in the exhibition are Bleed, Halvor Bodin, Node Oslo, Your Friends, Sletten & Østvold, Bendik Kaltenborn and Kristian Hammerstad. The exhibition consist of 7 different two-side A1 posters, one by each participant, available for free for the visitors. My poster: ボーNATの折り紙ポスター is printed in K (ブラック) on one side and CMY (シアン、マゼンタ、イエロー) on the other. The poster contains my own functional (but kind of non-figurative) origami designs made in the software Treemaker 5 by Robert J. Lang. The text on the black side is in Japanese only and represents fragmented thought-sketches for my cancelled lecture performed in a poster format. Thanks to Google Translate/Analytics. I just have to say ごめん、東京に旅行をキャンセルしてしまった。 9月23日から一週間にわたり開催されるイベント「Tokyo Graphic Passport 2010」 で、ノルウェーのグラフィック・デザイナーとイラストレーターがプレゼンテーションと展示を行ないます。Bleed, NODE, Your Friendsなど、日本でもお馴染みのデザイナー/クリエイターが来日します。 Bleed and Node Oslo will speak at the event. I was supposed to give a talk but had to cancel the trip because of 他のプロジェクト. Node Oslo stepped in for me. Bleed will hold workshops and the rest of the Norwegians will present in the portfolio program. Halvor Bodin, Sletten & Østvold and Kristian Hammerstad are not travelling to 東京. Meet the others there! 彼らは素晴らしいです！ Supported by the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Tokyo and Norsk Form/The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs

What does one associate with Norway? Norway has more to offer than the usual stereotypes we`ve decided to show this in a innovative, creative but yet humorous way for Yournorway.de and Norwegian Embassy in Berlin, by taking the clichés and breaking them.

This is the first edition in a series of 3. Read more and download here.

It has almost become a tradition at Bleed to be a part of the Los Logos books from Gestalten Verlag. While other books we are represented in comes and goes, Los logos have been going for 5 years now.

Like its predecessors, this fifth edition in the Los Logos series offers a definitive overview of current developments and advancements in logo design with the high-quality selection of up-to-the-minute work that readers have come to expect.

Det var det vi visste.

Bleed has recently re-branded estate agents ihus. ihus is known to stand out and be unconventional in an otherwise fairly conservative industry and the new visual identity is no exception, says Annika Mørch strategy manager at Bleed. ihus were the first to have a casual dress code at viewings and a modern and informal style. This in combination with professional and quality-driven processes has made them very successful. Market leaders in east as well as central Oslo, and expanding steadily in west Oslo, the new identity is sure to further strengthen their position in the marketplace.

Erik Hedberg, senior designer at Bleed, talks about the idea behind the new visual identity: We wanted to create something new in the property business and feel we have achieved this through a timeless graphic expression; which reflects ihus spirit and core. Inspiration is taken from physical areas and constructions. We were also inspired by interiors and what makes each home personal.

To re-design and modernize our branding was a strategic decision, that is aimed at giving us a competitive advantage not only when it comes to attracting new customers, but also the best estate agents and franchisees. We are very pleased with how Bleed solved the challenge and we look forward to see all 12 offices change their appearance, says Fredrik Sanne, CEO at ihus.

Showbox 2010. 30 November–3 December on Black Box and other venues in Oslo The National Touring Network for the Performing Arts (NTNPA) is a national promotion system for the performing arts.
