Graphical House is a design company located in Glasgow (im assuming Scotland)from their site is plain to see that they are an elegant and open company from their photo gallery and their invitation to all customers and viewers to come to their official gallery and office. It seems they mainly focus on photography and simple shapes for their graphics and are very versed in their formatting for different technological devices.

Design Firm: Ziba



http://www.ziba.com/

Ziba is a design firm run and worked for by many people, in their about page Ziba makes a point to emphasize just how many designers there are in their company and how varied they are, I think this is not only very open but a good strategy showing how many people could potentially work on a customer's project but also how much variety in design and style there is. Not only what I am really impressed by is Ziba's focus on empathizing with their customers as well as their audience for their designs. That approach with emotion as well as professionalism I am very is what I like about this company the most even though their designs are very good and eye catching it is how they present themselves and advertising themselves a diverse company that cares that catches my attention the most.

Design Firm: AdamsMorioka

AdamsMorioka is a design firm founded and run by Sean Adams and Noreen Morioka, just from browsing through their website and reading articles about them it is clear that the company is fun and lively just as it is professional. AdamsMorioka create a variety of work, advertisements for various companies both big and small, along with magazine and other 2-d ads the company creates websites and videos. I really enjoy the versatility of their designs even though they do multiple ads for one company no one poster or video or website looks the same and every advertisement has a fun attitude.

Design Firm: Sagmeister and Walsh



Sagmeister and Walsh look like a really interesting and creative place to work , the first thing that anyone notices when they first visit their website is that their page is also a webcam taking photos of Sagmeister and Walsh's office. The second thing I noticed and really respected about the firm was their variety of designs and how they were displayed they range from 2-D designs in a magazine , sculptures, photography, furniture, music, commercial and noncommercial items. I also appreciate how open the company is open and honest about how they think, how they work and are willing to offer advice to other designers and design companies that are just starting out. Their talent and creativity along with their willingness to be open and supportive to all makes this firm seem like a wonderful place to be.

Photorealistic artist: CJ Hendry

CJ Hendry is an amazingly talented artist from Australia who creates huge photorealistic images with just the use of ordinary drawing pens and lots of patience and attention to detail. Hendry was originally a commerce student who had an affinity for art, inspired by advertising and industry her subjects include fashion items such as shoes, bags, and hats. I am absolutely fascinated with how accurate and patiently this artist can create items in such a giant format, the way she creates her pieces makes every day items so beautiful and so much more interesting than they would be in an everyday setting.
