Wall of wishes by Gordon Young , in Bristol Brunel Academy .
The Bristol Brunel Academy is one of the schools that was rebuild in the city under the tomorrow's school project . Everything in this school is new and modern . The school also is covered by a wifi network , so it is the school of the future . When they finished the project they asked Gordon Young to do an art work that shows the spirit of the students and the school , so he went to the school and did a workshop with the student , and then he got inspired to do the wishes wall . Everyone was involved to do this . the pupils , teachers , cleaners and staff all wrote their wishes . and then he started to do the artwork , he used the marble which in my opinion give you the feeling of something valuable and modern . The idea is amazing and also the kids will learn from it alone . The school is the place where you can set a goal for yourself and work hard to make it come true. The wall is a brilliant idea to let the student to think about there dreams , wishes and goals and how there gonna make them come to life . For me if i where a kid going to this school and seeing the wall every time i enter the school , it will reminded me of my wishes and dreams . you see it as a simple idea but it have a big influence .

The
way finding system for the Eureka Tower
Car park in Melbourne , designed by Axel Peemoller , an German graphic designer
who studied in dusseldorf ( Germany ) , humburg ( Germany ) and Melbourne (
Australia ) . He designed a lot of
things such as books, brochures, magazines, annuals, icons, typefaces,
corporate identities, brand strategies, environmental graphics and posters. His
work is really amazing. This parking design grabs my attention when I was
looking for an environmental typography design. The way he designed is just
perfect, the colors the placement everything. This is the first time I saw a
colorful parking, usually parking are colorless or only black, white and grays.
Axel Peemoller made this parking so playful, and the way he placed the words is
just perfect . He won a lot of prizes on this project .

Pentagram is a designed studio in london , 5 designers working together , Alan Fletcher, Theo Crosby,
Colin Forbes, Kenneth Grange

partner-designers in 5 cities each managing a team of designers.
I think Pentagram marketing plan is really good . this is the way they market themselves first , by being international and accessible , they started from one country and now they have 5 offices in different countries and this is one of the things that made there business bigger and more easier for the companies to work with them . Second is the designers , architects and artists working with them are all the best in their fields and really famous . Third , they published a lot of books about design and that made them well known designers internationally . fourth , There website is really amazing ,simple and well designed . It really looks professional and easy to access and when you read the " about " page you feel the confidence and the power of this group . and also there is a new button that shows you all the new stuff they uploaded . also the entrance page filled with the designs they made for big companies is a good idea to grab more companies. fifth , pentagram have a monthly newsletter which is really useful . sixth , the design talks , exhibitions and workshops in different countries marketed them well . the talks was really big and effective . seventh , the videos , tutorials on youtube or cd's are so helpful, everyone anywhere can watch them and it also a part of the marketing plan . eighth , pentagram are really active on the social media networks such as twitter and Facebook and that made them really popular among the young people also not only the big companies .

as a carpenter and joiner from 1944 to 1946, before carrying out his National
Service in the RAF until 1949. He went on to study at St Martin’s School of

I Liked this piece of art.
it’s just like stamps with the word YES connected together , it really gave me
a positive feeling. The word YES is one of the most powerful words in the
world. Its only three letters but it have a big meaning and power. Everyone
understands the word Yes. We use this word everyday in many situations! We use it
to communicate with each other, to agree on something, to cooperate and to take
permission. Its a positive magical word
