Dulux Walls - Let's Colour Campaign


Shot by multi-award winning director Adam Berg over four weeks in Brazil, France, London and India. What sets this film apart is that it is not actually a film. Every location is real. The stairs in Lapa-Brazil, the council estate in Aulnay-Paris, Virginia Primary School in Tower Hamlets-London and the boys school, main street and community centre in Jodhpur-India.

All these places remain transformed by a palette of 120 wonderful vibrant colours of paint. The people you see painting are not actors, they are real people from the local areas who rolled up their sleeves with us to paint. 260 of them from all over the world. These are the people who fill the pages of this blog, whether by flickr slideshow, interview or in one of our documentaries posted below. The track behind this film -’Go Do’ by Jonsi- could not be better suited and acts as an emotive anthem or call to arms for the world to start colouring.

Grey is out. Gloom is gone. This is the beginning of a colour crusade that is spreading around the world. The more of us who join in, the bigger the splash will be. Come colour the world with us.

Neverland Lost: A Portrait of Michael Jackson


"It is said that the Pharaohs built tombs to reveal their lives to future generations. Michael Jackson sacrificed his childhood to the calling of his musical gift. Neverland was the pyramid he constructed to a lost childhood. The artefacts captured in this book return us to the Neverland he lost."

Suburban Type - Greg O’Connor


Suburban Type are the designs of Greg O’Connor, a Sydney based Graphic Designer who has a love of maps and a passion for typography. Inspired by designs he has seen overseas he has developed these quirky maps for areas in Australia.

Suburb + Typography = SUBURBAN TYPE. A funky & different approach to the way we look at the areas in which we live, work, play, dance, love, holiday, were born in or just like the feel of. Starting off where we work and live Sydney’s Inner West SUBURBAN TYPE captures suburbs such as Marrickville, Newtown, Balmain, Stanmore & Leichhardt. We will be expanding into more areas across NSW & Australia throughout 2010.

Love these prints, waiting for a Melbourne Bayside design.
