We are honored by the successive inclusion of our work in the 5th best selling logos series Los Logos published by Gestalten. Like its predecessors, Los Logos: Compass offers a definitive overview of current developments and advancements in logo design — the creative discipline that shapes the identities of brands, companies, and individuals. This fifth edition in the Los Logos series is not only a source of inspiration and an authoritative reference manual, but also a valuable compass that shows that every design problem is a variety of creative opportunities in disguise.

A poster for Thessaloniki June 2010
June 21st, 2010The “Poster for Thessaloniki” by designersunited.gr is at the forefront of applied and visual arts, abolishing the separateness of these two genres and merging them into a new creative version. Respectively, the Thessaloniki proposed is a melange between past and present, selected consciousness, abstractions and vision, awareness and imagination. The golden element recalls the depth of byzantine icons, but also of the hot summer sun, whereas the silver element recalls the active present and the sea. The particular texture of the image puts aside the two-dimensional representation, inviting us to a visual, or in other words to a corporal, relationship with it. The horizon Thessaloniki seeks is steadily there, distinguishing between the two parts of the image and determining the past and the present of the city with a slight unrest. Secular and quasi sacred at the same time, contemporaneous and futuristic, the composition invites its viewers to become “readers”, but also to surpass the iconographic reading: in other words, to be exposed to the face of the Thessaloniki they desire and imagine.
