Nokia L’Amour
Simply astonishing. Design, style and practicality mixed into one, that’s Nokia trying to potray their latest product L’Amour. Beautiful. And if you look into the website closely, it is tied with the concept of emotions and colours. Everyone would had a different perception on colours, but with a precise research and correct phrase used, you can really convince people of your ideas and concepts. Thanks Zanoradiel.

Muar’s Chinese Dialect
Warning : Viewers discretion required. Contains strong language and images.
Great creative art does not have boundaries in it’s language, form or images. And this is how the music video proved it. Upon release, it shows that the music video is capable of capturing the essense that makes people, tick, laugh or even mad. What makes this shines are not the skills involves but the quality of the content, local content that we had seen missing for the past decade.
It’s really great to see more of our local talents making use of the internet to have their voice heard. It might be pleasing to everyone but it’s really an eye opener to see a different type of direction these young talents are moving forward to touch their listeners, by telling the facts and truth through their work.
And if you still remember that not so long ago there is a group of DJ and teenagers did their Music Video with a very low budget as R.M. 50 (14USD$) that talks about the pollution and haze.
And of course we are not restricted to only featuring design artworks, and we are more open and happy to have yours featured if you have anyone in mind to suggest or recommend.
