As is traditional (and just in time) I’ve picked a few favourite posts from the year with some rear view mirror commentary. See you in 2008!
In January, Vikesh wrote about a controversial redesign of Thundercats’ Liono. Die hard fans of the original are still commenting eleven months later, although it looks as though the design of Liono has now evolved.
February must have been Wire frame Month. Exhibit A: Thomas Raschke’s wire frame sculptures. Exhibit B: Benedict Radcliffe’s wire frame car.
Is it me or was 2007 the year of the plastic bag alternative? In March Dave wrote about Anya Hindmarch’s extremely popular design (no, we still don’t know how you can get hold of one.) Goodbye plastic.
Pop-ups popped up all over the place too, like Shitdisco’s pop-up pop video back in April. See also the pop-up Lexus commercial.
We talked about some eerie but beautiful photography in May – Inverkip Power Station, Empty Car Parks and Floating Logos.
Then in June there was that logo – interestingly The Onion had the most accurate report.
In July Fibre were amused again by over 200 sculptures of Queen Victoria. Next year we’re going to try Quick Welding Queen Vic, come down! we have the blowtorches ready.
From August, Yuta Watenbe’s work put the lead back in our pencils:
Dave found a lovely poster in September celebrating Fried Food Fortnight">British Fried Food Fortnight.
In October Vikesh and John visited Shibboleth at Tate Modern without twisting their ankles. As you can see from this photo – it’s dangerous! Has anyone seen Nicholas Serota…?
Fibre’s Quick Draw returned in November, just in time for Christmas…
…and finally in December, Gary gets cosy with a Moving Brands scarf.
