Jotopia Visual Noise developed the corporate design, key visual and finally the basic concept and design for the website of the project WIR! Mannheim as an art director at Signum communication. The project by the cultural office of the city of Mannheim is sponsored by the H.W. & J. Hector foundation and supports young, creative and talented people who are into music, dancing and art. So if you are one of these, don’t hesitate to join the rising WIR!-crowd.

Good things in life come to those who wait: two years after the announcement, seven kilos of pure Graphic Design Inspirations arrived just in time before Christmas! There’s also a CD-cover by Jotopia (done for Livingroom about five years ago …) featured in the book, which is published by daab. More information as usual in the Publications-area. Merry Christmas!

Building Jotopia is the companion piece to the Destroying Jotopia illustration. For those who haven’t realized yet: it’s also inspired by a rather well known movie poster…

Frohes Noise and a happy new year which starts with the destruction of Jotopia. The T-Shirt-design which will be available in spring was inspired by an old 60’s movie poster (“Gorgo”). It shows a godzilla-like creature having fun while playing around with the tiny buildings of a large city. Will keep you updated…

Jotopia-Posters have been exhibited in the category “Unpublished posters” at the Third International Biennial of the Poster in Bolivia. The exhibiton in a recently refurbished monastery in the heart of the city of La Paz was opened with the presence of the German embassy and showed posters by 15 selected German designers/ studios. Many thanks to Julius Wiedemann from Taschen for the invitation and providing the photos.

Jotopia is featured in “Graphic Design 2″, “Best of Poster Design” and “Logo 2″ of the Design-Cube-Series by Zeixs. More information in the publications-area. Note: There’s a little typo gremlin in the book “Logos 2″ – the logos on page 434 are designed by Volker Neumann, whereas the Jotopia-Crest on page 72 (erroneously revealing to Kai Dlugosch) is an absolute Jotopia-Originial… ;-)

Logos designed by Jotopia are featured in Gestalten’s latest logo coup “Los Logos 4″. More information in the publications-area.
