HELLOVON x NIKE STADIUM AT SELFRIDGES

---

I am very proud to announce that my 17 window installation at Selfridges on Oxford St is now up. A culmination to Nike's "Stadium at Selfridges" month long residency to celebrate the World Cup the installation features 17 portraits of Nike's key players from around the world with design and art direction by It's Nice That.

If you are in London and wish to see the installation it will be up along Oxford St until close of business on 01/07/10. To see a small selection of shots of the project click here or to watch a walk through of the installation click here. The windows are due to be professionally photographed this week so the HelloVon site will be updated soon.

OFFSET / PETER BLAKE

---

The brilliant OFFSET festival launched with full force last year in Ireland. It had talks from some of the creative industry's best including James Jean, Sir Peter Blake, Massimo Vignelli, Experimental Jetset and many more. In the months before OFFSET 2010 the organisers will be releasing footage from last years talks including the one above from Sir Peter Blake. Really interesting and well worth the watch. I wish my life was as glamorous!

The very talented, and somewhat dapper, Darren Wall of Wallzo has updated his site with some killer work. I particularly love the custom fonts he comes out with. Above is the font "Peg Board" created for the identity of web design agency "You,Me + Everyone."

Alex Bec

This is a face to watch out for - an almost always happy smiling face at that.

By the time Mr Bec graduated from Brighton Uni this year he had already formed If You Could with Will Hudson and put on two exhibitions with accompanying publications by work of some of the best image makers around. He now is under employment of the ever talented Peepshow Collective. If You Could 3 promises to be bigger and better than ever and who know what other surprises he has in the pockets of his short trousers.
