Very interesting post. I used to love using foamex for presenting ages ago. And a great idea for a display unit. Very important that you put that coal texture over the gradients – it completely makes the job for me. Textures are so important and I don’t use them enough leaving the flat colors and gradients bare and unexciting.

Anyway, nice job, Andrew.

Large-Format Foamex Design for Next Distribution…

[...] Large-format foamex design for Next Distribution I chose this article because I think it sums-up what I do best as a designer.

Yeah. unlike with Logo design, when [as a designer] you undertake custom work, you’re not in competition with every designer on the net.

I love to do custom work like this, as I love a great challenge. I’ve been doing some other large format prints of late, so I’ll probably pick one out to blog about at a later date.

Cheers Richard. I’ve been doing quite a lot of large format print lately, although the file sizes often bring my Mac to it’s knees…need more memory!
