WHEN SOMETHING COOL COMES ALONG...

Every now and again you come across something that you really like. Tanya Williams' SHOW & TELL identity for Abovegroup is one such thing. Tanya recently posted notes on her process and a groovy video with her co-workers putting up the identity. I wish I had done this.-rmr

From Tanya's notes:
Abovegroup's SHOW and TELL
Last week (Friday, May 4th) launched the debut of the identity I designed for The “Show & Tell “event Series that the Branding and Design agency I work at – (Abovegroup), puts on ever so monthlyish..

I”ve been laboring over this logo for what seems like forever. And finally the event that just held it’s 8th showing finally found its brand identity!


The Show and Tell Identity


Every “Show and Tell” Alicia Milne (our resident Maker) creates lovely creative installations to represent each cuest and theme. And at this event she along with the help of my other co-workers painted the logo on the wall in a design for the Michael Deibert, Haiti Special.





Signs posted at various points at the Fernandes Industrial Centre, Laventille, where the event took place on Friday.


Show+Tell tonight-'Haiti'
Abovegroup's Show&Tell now has a logo and this is the first wall piece with the identity incorporated which was done by our very invaluable Maker Alicia Milne with help from Khafra Rudder for our last event, journalist Michael Deibert, on Haiti.
