Painting the Urban Landscape


 St Etienne-based French street artist OakOak—who works as a “pen-pusher” at his day job—uses stencils, paint and the occasional adhesive sticker to turn city infrastructures into humorous art. Making use of cracks on the sidewalks and walls, abandoned concrete bricks and sewer covers, he is able to create imaginative stories featuring superheroes, cartoon characters and even Edvard Munch’s “The Scream”. By adding drawings and details strategically, the urban landscape gets transformed into a fantastical wonderland—one never knows what one would find around the next corner.

VH1 Gets a Makeover

Old Logo

New Logo

VH1 has recently unveiled a new logo as part of its new multi-platform rebranding effort. A plus sign has been added to the logo, which reflects the changes in the digital world—meshing together the network’s music, pop culture and nostalgia content together. “10 years ago, no one had ever heard of Justin Bieber, Mark Zuckerberg just entered Harvard, iPhones were five years away and hashtags didn’t exist,” said VH1 President Tom Calderone. “Our world has clearly changed, so we want to reflect those cultural and technological changes in each of the many ways that consumers now touch the VH1 brand.” According to the network, they call the plus sign a “tagmark”, and it represents the brand’s “high-energy sensibility where every is ‘more’—more fun, more bold, and more exciting.”

Pickup or Delivery?



This is a re-release of hip hop group The Fat Boys’ self titled album. It was originally released in 1984, but this commemorative record looks like a pizza and is sold in a cardboard delivery box, which makes it a collector's item. Even if you aren't a fan of The Fat Boys, it's still an interesting and unique package design.
