Here are some pictures of the ad campaign, created by Saatchi&Saatchi, for the famous cigarettes brand Camel.
The advertising campaign is very interesting because the message is not directed exclusively to the product but to the  camel brand through its  logo.
The advertising campaign is produced by the Italian Advertising Agency Saatchi&Saatchi, in collaboration with photographer Jan Steinhilber.

Enjoy the gallery!

Geishas (芸者, Geisha) are traditional Japanese artist and entertainer, whose skills include various arts such as music, song and dance. The geisha were very common in the eighteenth and nineteenth century and still exist, although their number is gradually decreasing.
Despite this, geisha has become a figure much represented in the design. This figure in fact has the ability to unite itself in modernity and tradition of japanese culture, therefore, is a strong image when used in the right design context.
Among the entries we’ve been very impressed by those of Rubens Cantuni, with the design of a chubby and ironic geisha.
Good inspiration for your work tuwidesigners
As always expect your suggestions to expand our gallery!!!

Here is the second appointment with the new section of the best cover graphics of albums just released.
This week we see as the main theme is the element of dreamy and surreal landscapes. The cover created by Jeff Jordan for The Mars Volta refers to the paintings of Salvador Dalì and Joan Mirò, but present this art to our times and with new elements.
Mythical creatures, visions of heaven and hell, dreams and nightmares are all elements that we find in  the Dream Theater cover, a band always tied into their music at these issues.
We can find the theme of dreams even in the cover of Dinosaur Jr., Regina Spektor and in Rem’s Reckoning.
So.. in this week albums we can see how the type of music, the topics covered in lyrics are in close connection with the cover artwork.

Wish you a nice view of the gallery… and a good listening to the music

Today we offer a collection of the best fragrances packaging. Develop the design of a precious fragrance bottle is a really interesting process. The bottle must represent in its design the perfume that contains. Its lines, geometric or soft, must recall the aroma of perfume. The approach of the designer will be obviously different if the scent is addressed to a woman or a man. In this gallery we collected only the women’s fragrances. soon we will see the difference with the scents targeted to men.

To be a good designer you must sometimes have a good nose:)
