European Websites


We have to say there is not a more daunt­ing task than choos­ing a hand­ful of European tal­ents. We stumbled upon some true cre­at­ives on our scour of the inter­net. Every web­site although not all typ­ic­ally Graphic Design web­sites have a dis­tinct com­mu­nic­a­tion that we wanted to share with the graphic design stu­dent com­munity. Please offer your sug­ges­tions for next months sites.

In between tutor­ing stu­dents in The Graphic Design School’s Online Course and writ­ing courses, we thought that we would whip up this little blog entry simply for your view­ing pleasure…Ahhh no sleep for the wicked! Enjoy!

Bergh

Port­fo­lio site of Anders Bergh pho­to­grapher Andes from Copen­ha­gen, has one of the most incred­ible pho­to­graphic port­fo­lio sites that we have ever seen.

Its no secret that The Graphic Design School tutors and staff are pho­to­graphy fans. Lets face it the right pho­to­graph can make an ordin­ary graphic design com­pos­i­tion look great. We fell in love with Andes and his work at first sight. Not only only is his eye sharp, his aes­thetic is clean, his under­stand­ing of light manip­u­la­tion leaves us in awe. This is what Anders has to say about his pro­cess as a photographer/designer:

For me, the cre­at­ive pro­cess is a jour­ney from an inspired idea to the cre­ation of raw pic­ture mater­ial to detailed refin­ing work in post production.

Mcbess

Port­fo­lio site of Mat­thieu Bessudo French Born Mat­thieu now resid­ing in Lon­don, has a kick arse site, reel and imagination.

Stae­heli

Port­fo­lio site of Mat­thias Stae­heli “Life is a pixel” is the motto of this Swiss Graphic Designer, in keep­ing with the motto a fuzzy orange pixel guides you though the site. Mat­thias is a design stu­dent liv­ing in Ber­lin. His fun site will have you explor­ing and play­ing with his fuzzy little pixel!!!

Mon Monde

Port­fo­lio site of Guil­laume Dupuy Spe­cial­ist in full flash sites, har­mony and ease of brows­ing exper­i­ence. The beau­ti­ful melange of graphic design, anim­a­tion and sound devel­op­ment make French­man Guil­laumes Dupuy a multi tal­en­ted Graphic Designer to be reckoned with.

      Hi, my name is Isa­bela and I am a Graphic designer stu­dent from Argen­tina.
      For the Uni­ver­sity I have to look for some inform­a­tion about Bionic Sys­tems stu­dio. And the inform­a­tion of the web site is not that good. Do you know from where I can take more inform­a­tion?.
      I need inform­a­tion such as, the phyl­o­sophy, more about the his­tory, the style they have. The more inform­a­tion I can get bet­ter for me!.

      Thank you very much.
