We are published in the recent sunday edition of Austrian newspaper “Die Presse”. We were invited to deliver a visual comment about the creative industry, which we did by using one of our manifesto statements. Excited about this opportunity, we hope that the two faced horse appeals to the 270k readers!

By request from our friends at +81, Bleed has among a lot of talented designers, artists and architects contributed to a special edition of +81, a Creators Aid for victims in Japan.

The Magazine is available at the +81 global store in App store. And all the e-magazine sales will give a donation to the Japanese Red cross for Japanese victims. Have a look at the website here.

We are very proud to announce that we won Gold for Myspace in the category Corporate illustrations at the  European Design Awards 2011. This has been a very good year for us so far, and we are humbled to receive so much appreciation for our work!

Bleed has created the image identity for the repertoire of the National Theatre Oslo in 2011 and 2012. This time with a simple clear style and no photoshopping. It was great working with the actors and the photographer Sigurd Fandango!

This winter we got a great brief from Myspace: “Lead the rebranding efforts for Myspace. We have a new logo and entirely new site and are ready to design out the rest of our identity system”.

The revitalized brand is fresh and designed as a vessel that leverages Myspace brand equity and core culture allowing it to mature into a satisfying and engaging social entertainment entity. We communicate Myspace as the place where everyone can be whoever they want to be.

Giving the brand experience room to grow we use subtle typography and combine the logo with different corporate illustrations. The simple material and 3 way separation is the base. The visuals can be random from users of Myspace or generated by professionals.

Watch out for soon to come portfolio update with more images!

Our fourth collab with the international fashionmagazine Hintmag, Pagan Invation, is a play with randomly programmed crystals and trees and our office favourite Zola Jesus as soundtrack. Amazing photo from Pierre Dal Corso and off course design and programming by Bleed.

It has been over a year since we actually made this poster. It took some time before Poster Press could do their concept in Oslo. But here it is, enjoy the Disney havoc! The Poster can be picked up at SHIT or Hunting Lodge in Oslo.

The Oslo Architecture Triennale 2010 was held from 22. 09 – 03.10, located at several venues in Oslo. Many of the arrangements are targeted for a broader audience interested in issues related to the city’s development and future. The opening, the main conference and the side conferences will be held at and nearby Youngstorget, one of Oslos main public squares with strong historical and political references.

Bleed did the overall concept and the design. Make a face:)

What does one associate with Norway? Norway has more to offer than the usual stereotypes we`ve decided to show this in a innovative, creative but yet humorous way for Yournorway.de and Norwegian Embassy in Berlin, by taking the clichés and breaking them.

This is the first edition in a series of 3. Read more and download here.

After our conceptual rebranding of the FRI Antismoking program for the elementary school in 2007, the program has turned so successful amongst the students and teachers that the planned revision this year proved not necessary. We were instead asked to make some additional graphic artwork for new posters and postcards to be printed as supplements to the program.
