Paul Davis + James Carey (O.Two) / The New Clapham Hidden Art Project
Paul Davis & O.Two AKA James Carey were commissioned by Realise Creative to work on a unique project within The New Clapham development currently being built by the Cathedral Group.
Paul & James were asked create a work of art over the interior walls of the still under-construction Penthouses (11th floor) of the development in Clapham, only for it to be almost immediately hidden forever under the internal wall linings within days as construction work recommences to complete The Library Building on Clapham High Street in time for its February launch.
Photographer Thomas Butler (Who we previously collaborated with in Monaco) was on hand to produce these 2 videos of Paul & James at work.
You can watch Paul's video here and James' video here.
Thomas also shot tons of stills, all of which can be seen here on our Flickr page.

A Rich Rice Brand Re-design
We are pleased to share packaging illustrations by artist Webb Creative for Oriente, a premium rice brand out of Portugal. Webb Creative was brought on by Firecactus Creative Director John-Paul Hunter who led the brand’s redesign. Inside the V-shaped illustration, which is actually two grains of rice coming together, are Webb’s illustrations. Each rice variant has a different scene, depicting the fifth-generation owners and moments from the business’s history. As Hunter shared with Design Week: “That illustration needed to work hard, we wanted people to see something different every time.” A further dive into the meaning of each illustration can be found on the back of the pack. You can check out details of the redesign and more of Webb Creative’s work here.

Steven Heller on Peter Grundy (AKA Grundini)
Steven Heller, a member of the Art Director Hall of Fame since 1996 and author, co-author and editor of over 200 books on design covered Grundini in his latest article for the Daily Heller. Describing Peter, Steven wrote: " [he is] an exemplar of the commedia dell’arte style of data visualization, a maestro of transforming statistics into pictorial passion plays. Icons are his meat, and they are seasoned with wit and humor, color and conviviality. They brighten up the stage, the page and the screen. They scroll with a certain rock and roll."
