A.G. LOW [CONSTRUCTION] LTD.

Although it was what I actually studied while in Italy and I haven’t given up on it yet, nowadays I do very little of interior and furniture design work.

The logo for A.G. LOW CONSTRUCTION was an instant favourite. I’m not entirely sure if the idea is instantly recognisable if you’re not that familiar with how plan drawings look, but it works for me 100%.

Drafts from the design process:

Identity Applications, Business Card Design

Identity Applications, Website Design

I love how the site navigation fits into the design concept…

Walking the Line When You Work from Home

Aaron Gustafson — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 23:06:35 +0000

Working from home as a freelance contractor or remote employee can be a great thing, particularly if you live alone. But what if you have a spouse and/or children at home with you while you work? Every work environment offers distractions, but those who work from home with their families face a unique set of issues—and need equally unique ways of dealing with them.

Video tutorials

abduzeedo — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 13:17:54 +0000

Last night I was reading the news and I saw that PSDTUTS now has a video page on VIMEO. I checked that out and it’s really good. They are making videos of the PSDTUTS tutorials. There are some of my tuts in video already, so I decided to share them here too.

Also I will try to make some video tutorials as well, even though my voice and speaking skills are terrible, so, maybe I will need somebody to help me, any volunteer?

Lost in NYC, meetup?

abduzeedo — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 02:17:11 +0000

After 2 excellent weeks in North Carolina, I’ve arrived in New York. It's the 4th time I've been here and it’s still awesome. Lots of people, I’m always walking around, most of the time lost, but it’s really cool. This time I’m staying with my aunt Terry in her super cool apartment. Thanks for having me.

I had the chance to meet an old friend that I’ve been talking to him via AIM for almost 2 years. Also tomorrow I will go to a place called Barcade, in Brooklyn, where I will meet two other readers and it would be awesome a meet up with more people. So if you are from NY and you like design, join us. We will get there 6:30pm ;)

Below there's more information, that Francisco sent me, about how to get there.

For all of those in NYC. Sorry this is short notice but we're meeting up at Barcade tomorrow around 6:30pm. Figure it was a fitting place to meet. Hope you can make it!

Here's how to get there.

Barcade - www.barcadebrooklyn.com/

388 Union Ave.

You take the L train to Brooklyn and get out at the Lorimer Stop.
Exit the train station at the Union & Metropolitan exit. (when you step off the train go to your right)
Go to the street and walk south on Union Ave and look for the address 388 Union Ave. You can't miss, it's on your left.

Here's a Google Maps link:

Amazing Toy Art: Munny

Paulo — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 14:18:07 +0000

It's been some time now that I'm developing a big crush on Toy Art. Another day I caught myself stealing some. No, just kidding... I caught myself in a store taking a look at many toy art books... drooling all lover the place.

And now I was checking some Munnies at Flickr, and man, these are really great! I've also checked who much it costs at Kidrobot's, and it's kinda cheap, isn't it? Did anyone make a custom Munny? What about dropping a link to it? And for now, enjoy these awesome pieces. :)

Amazing artist Audrey Kawasaki

koikumi — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 07:32:50 +0000

Hi, here's my first post on Abduzeedo. I want to spend my very first one for an artist I recently discovered and I loved since the very first second, her name is Audrey Kawasaki.

This is a short description of her art directly from her site "The themes in Audrey Kawasaki's work are contradictions within themselves. Her work is both innocent and erotic. Each subject is attractive yet disturbing. Audrey's precise technical style is at once influenced by both manga comics and Art Nouveau. Her sharp graphic imagery is combined with the natural grain of the wood panels she paints on, bringing an unexpected warmth to enigmatic subject matter."

She also has great pencil works

Vector art is one of my favourite technics of creating an image, but it takes time. Check out these cool vector artworks of cars

Collaborate and Connect with Subversion

Aaron Gustafson — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 12:29:23 +0000

Managing subcontractors and distributed projects is easy and fun. No wait, that's a lie. Luckily, a good version control may be just what you need to keep your projects on track.
