Fabrica conceives a global campaign on child injury prevention for UNWHO and UNICEF




The project is presented on December 10th, in Vietnam-Hanoi, day of the launch of the World Report on Child Injury Prevention.

Fabrica continues its series of social communication campaigns with a global advocacy and awareness raising campaign on child injury prevention, on behalf of UNWHO and UNICEF. Fabrica’s Visual Communication department, directed by Omar Vulpinari, has conceived five separate posters and an all-in-one collective poster, that will also become off and on-line ads and displays. Designed to communicate the graveness of the child injury situation worldwide, the goal of the campaign is to urge policy makers to implement prevention measures for the first five injury causes: road traffic injuries, drowning, burns, falls and poisoning.
In order to use a universal visual language related to children, Fabrica’s Austrian graphic designer Valerie Gudenus, created putty characters engaged in the five dangerous situations. While concise informational texts convey the startling facts. The result is visually impacting, memorable and convincing.


wow... It's so amazing and impressive works!!

Nar






“nar” means “pomegranate” in turkish. Pomegranate is a fruit that holds hundreds of juicy seeds inside. It’s a fruit that symbolizes fertility. Nar coffetable carries books and books carry ideas. Ideas can be distructive as much as they can be constructive. Our aim was to emphasize the danger and the dilemma it holds with utter nakedness.

Beosound 5




Bang & Olufsen have officially announced the BeoSound 5, a digital music system intended to bridge the gap between the company’s high-end hifi systems and music stored digitally. The main interface is the BeoSound 5 controller, a 2.65kg table-top or wall-mounted remote dominated by a 10.4-inch 1024 x 768 LCD and an aluminium scroll wheel. Providing the power is the BeoControl 5, a 500GB music server with internet connections. The whole system runs MOTS (More Of The Same), B&O’s new intelligent playlist system. I can buy that one. Can you?

Poster for Gary Hustwit’s documentary.




Vignelli was already an enthusiastic advocate for Helvetica prior to his move to the United States. What he most loved about it was its lack of sidebearings. This enabled him to tightly pack letters together—as in his famous posters for the Piccolo Teatro in Milan—without having to cut up galley proofs. Vignelli shared his love of Helvetica with his colleagues at Unimark and it quickly became the firm’s “house face.” The “new sans serif” was especially prized for visual identity systems such as the one Unimark developed for Varian. Not only could Helvetica be set closely but it was available in a variety of sizes and weights and on a variety of typesetting systems. More importantly, compared to its sans serif rival Standard, it was considered more harmonious in design because the terminals of c, e, s, etc., were horizontal.

New commemorative coin: The Architecture Fiver



Designer’s inspiration
The Architecture five-euro coin was designed by artist Stani Michiels (b. 1973). The design on the obverse of the coin pays tribute to the history of Dutch architecture, with the portrait of Queen Beatrix being distinctively constructed using the names of important architects from Dutch history. The artist used the internet as a popularity-meter to determine the names’ order of appearance.

For the background story on how this coin was created, check out

save a polar bear


The Polarbears are drowning because of the ice that are melting. They have to swim up to 10.000 km to find food. Global warming needs to be stopped.
