AK 2012: Web + Identity - AK Logo

Every year I take a little time to give my web and identity a freshening up. I was inspired to mix an italic serif font treatment in to give my creative portfolio an editorial style. I’m excited about the year and lots of great new projects already in the pipes.

Mazda 2 Mexico iPad App by Rage Digital & Aspect

Rage Digital and Aspect have teamed up to create the 2012 Mazda 2 Mexico iPad App. The app served as the User Manual allowing users to check out features of their new car, follow step by step manual How-Tos as well as find Mazda Mexico dealers for service.

We really love taking a traditional unfriendly paper manual and converting it into a fun and usable interactive experience. Rage Digital has had the opportunity to create manuals for Hyundai, Mitsubishi, Honda and now Mazda!

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 11:50:53 -0700

It’s my second year of collaborating with the guys from Oakley and Raul and JG from Satellite to design the 2012 Oakley + Satellite Goggle. The concept was to go with a simple black and white frame / strap branding and allow people to pick their custom outrigger colors. Oakley provided us an in-store goggle bar where you can come in and make your own custom pair! Now available at Satellite!

Check out our 2011 colab here.

2011 Celtek + Satellite Gloves / Design: Andrew Kimmell

We had a chance to team up with the Leines brothers to make an awesome Celtek + Satellite custom glove. We went with the classic Satellite white/orange/black and the ColoRADo logo over the bullseye for the palm print. I’ve always loved prints that you can hold up to create a graphic.

They’re available over at the Satellite online store!
