Here is the second Friday Peek of all time. This is part of a cover for a brochure on a commercial geothermal unit.

* Friday Peek is an effort to broadcast what I’m currently working on. Every Friday I’ll try and post a 380px X 350px cropped image of what’s on my screen. Please comment if you have any critique or thoughts.

Just finished my purchase of the 2009 Feltron Annual Report. I picked up his 2008 report and loved it so this should be another great buy. The meticulously organized infographics created by Feltron are simply sublime. I for one could not put aside the time to construct and record all this information — in fact a commenter on Swissmiss brough up a good point. Ck had this to say:

“It reminds me of a viral photo of a concert from a few years back where everyone in the audience holding up cameras and taking pictures, instead of just being in the moment. Recording life, instead of living it.”

Honestly, I have to agree. I love the graphics and talent put into his annual reports however he might be missing out on the simpler and better things in life.

Great redesign of the Plaza Hotel’s Oak Room by Pentagram. Love the custom blackletter and the subtle use of the monogram.
