Good Looking Things Next To Each Other with Luci Everett - Printed Matter
23rd February, 2012
All things printed matter are on the agenda for Luci Everett today. Luci has a wonderful portfolio full of printed matter that she designed and illustrated on her website, do pop over and have a look! (I especially love these gig posters- you are too clever Luci!!) -Jenny x
If you're a graphic designer/creative sort in Melbourne you've either seen or picked up most of this stuff. Which is a little like how I felt at the lovely Diamonds in the Rough exhibition by Studio Pip & Co. at Lamington Drive a little while ago, although it's a good reminder of the substantial gems existing in an otherwise sea of convoluted visual despair. Stuff like this resides in another large old suitcase, like my paper, and works on rotational display on my wall space. It usually inspires me no end, although very occasionally, in immense artistic frustration, I'll flip. 'I freaking HATE stunning riso printed flyers in gut wrenchingly beautiful colours. Turquoise, burnt orange, what the hell, stop it!' Then I'll rip the piece of the wall and stomp on it in a fierce irrational rage. It helps me feel like a true artist.

this is my favourite so far….where did the uber colourful patterned postcard come from and the honeycomb shaped card..melbourne rules for paper ephemera!!
Rachael, the honeycomb shaped card is a business card/coaster for new cafe Patricia just off Little Collins/William in the CBD. It was designed by local studio Beyond the Pixels. The coloured one I thiiink was from an exhibition a while back.
thanks luci..i will endeavor to get one of my own…
the colourful patterned postcard inspired me too much! i’ll try to make my own but i am not sure if i can :)
