McDonalds Monopoly Game Board

This is McDonald's new Monopoly game board. I've got a couple of these at home now. I was admiring how well designed they are. The game board of course is the same as the actual Monopoly game but they've added in the things you can win by collecting the game pieces. And they've also included little slots for each color card you can get. Clever huh? I thought so. The chances of winning are just so exciting... I believe McDonalds will be in my budget for the next month so I can try and win something!

Hookah and Shisha Sticker Contest

This is the winner of the recent Hookah and Shisha Sticker contest. This was the description of the contest, "We’re looking for a promotional sticker that we can include with every order we send out. Want to design it? If you’ve got mad skills, send us your designs and we’ll post the best ones for all to vote on. The top-voted entry will be printed and distributed around the world!" Now doesn't that sound pretty awesome! Well for me it does. I'm a hookah fan so when I came across this website, I started exploring the website. Unfortunately I was too late and missed out on entering the contest, but I've been keeping tabs on it ever since I saw the contest. This ended up being the winner! I think its great. Simple and to the point! Has humor in it as well. Great graphic design!

"Bleeding" Billboard

This billboard really caught my eye. When it rains, the billboard "bleeds". I think that this billboard probably really got into peoples heads and made them think about driving safe. I didn't even know that billboards could do that! Someone thought out of the box on this one, kudos.

Jasmine Plantation Brochure

This brochure is very well put together. I found it online at the Jasmine Plantation website (listed below). I think the design is very effective and very eye catching. If I were to see it out of the corner of my eye, I would most likely go pick it up and look at it. It has a lot of pictures and text but its not cluttered. It just has the main facts and what's needed to get the description of the plantation across.

What is graphic design?

These two posters I chose to share with you are from a contest called "What is Graphic Design Poster Competition". There were many great ones, but these two were my favorites. They are up with the times that graphic design is in now and they are very eye catching. They are the kind of posters that you just have to keep looking at to see all the details. Those are my favorite kind! I found these posters online from a fellow blog.
