TOBACCO

It's good for you. In a visual form anyway. There's a whole series of videos like this on youtube for many of Tobacco's tracks, they're absolutely mad but I love them. Don't eat drugs!

Established in January 2007 by Lucas Lepola and Hayley Thwaites, the site was born out of their passion for typography in poster design, British heritage and the medium of screen printing.

MUESLI

Muesli is a workshop founded in 2006 by Lea & Mytilis Ducomet Chapon. The workshop works in the fields
graphic design, publishing, identity, signage and web.
It is through various research projects that they started working together. Today they continue this collaboration by developing a common visual vocabulary that is based on both a conceptual approach of the project and a requirement graph. This vision is enriched by a personal creative work from typography to illustration through engraving, installation or
photography. The workshop develops its business both in the institutional, cultural and private sectors.
