We designed this seasonal publication for the foodies at CPH Meal. ‘Winter’ contains recipes, observations and advice on dealing with food and drink in the Nordic winter from people such as Emil Glaser of Noma.

Danish musician Ekkoarkitekt makes beautiful, ambient sounds and we designed the first in a series of albums from him. Released in December, we used an image of the Christmas Tree nebula alongside others of fire and light from earth, data and some dreams too for good measure. Listen to the album here.

Probably the tastiest ‘dream project’ you could imagine we designed this ltd. edition 12″ for Australia’s Washington with PVC screen-printed sleeve, clear vinyl, trace dust cover and various insert cards using kidsincloaks lush illustrations. Swoon.

Thomas Nedergaard, a priest working with churches in Copenhagen’s Vesterbro area asked us recently to create a t-shirt that he could wear to work. We applied the church’s more serious dress code to a simple print and here you have it – a religious smart/casual.

Line met Peter on the plane from Edinburgh to Copenhagen last winter. They talked about scotch and graphic design and found out they had similar tastes.

It seems Steffen Brandt is so pleased with Nicolai Munch-Hansen’s jazz sextet, that he planned a whole tour with them in the fall 2011. The set list will be a mix of… well we don’t know yet really, but we’re looking forward to find out and we enjoyed working on the poster.

I Never Played Tennis

Helen never played Tennis. But she wished she did. That’s what her exhibition is about. It’s also about Dallas and Dynasty and growing up in Durban, South Africa. We made her this pink poster & brochure.

Tours Cph

Simon — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 09:00:37 +0000

The best tours of Copenhagen are by Seamus Daly, an Irishman of course. He brings people around the city on Segways and now on his try-them-and-you’ll-want-one electric bikes. Daniel Frost illustrated Copenhagen to complete the ToursCPH.com identity.
