Hi I’m Jess Lewis of Jess lewis Creative (JLC). This is my blog of great design I find around Adelaide where I live and beyond.

Just love the colour! </p> <p>Sorry I haven’t been posting as much lately, I have been so busy at Uni!

Back for another 1.5 years of study to knock of a Bachelor of Design Visual Communication, heaps of confusion but lots of fun so far.</p> <p>I found this beautiful poster whilst waiting for an elevator to go to a class that wasn’t on this week. Well at least it wasn’t a complete waste of time.</p> <p>I see great design.</p>http://iseegreatdesign.tumblr.com/post/44608235512http://iseegreatdesign.tumblr.com/post/44608235512Tue, 05 Mar 2013 02:57:52 -0500uni saadelaidedistortedillusionsthroughthecameralenstooth and nailconstance ariposter designgraphic design<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a6495379b6559624bb8d894653a13e8a/tumblr_mijk0na3a71rtbiyto1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Well folks its been a while between posting. Its festival season and I am out and about all the time but alas have only been really impressed with one lovely piece of design so far. I’m sure their are many more post-able works out there I just haven’t come across them yet (gosh I hope so).</p> <p>This little post card promo is design taken from the Adelaide Festival and what a wonderful eye catching thing it is. With its beautiful use of colour and hierarchy it makes me think “who is this Van Dyke Parks guy and why do I now want to see him over Daniel Johns and Kimbra?” Sorry to the Van Dyke Parks fans I have never heard of him. But the important thing is that because of this image I now want to know so its doing its job.</p> <p>The campaign for all the Festivals shows has translated very well to TV spots as well.</p> <p>I have done a bit of research and discovered that Mash studio art directed the festivals design last year along with Design lab doing the layout so the new design could have been done once again by these guys but I couldn’t see much info on it. </p> <p>I’ll keep my eyes peeled and post again soon.</p> <p>I see great design.</p>http://iseegreatdesign.tumblr.com/post/43596399187http://iseegreatdesign.tumblr.com/post/43596399187Wed, 20 Feb 2013 18:02:00 -0500Adelaidefestivalvan dyke parksDaniel johnskimbrapost card designgraphic designThebarton theatretypography<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/6eab035cad627c9c07146f49c6ff59ed/tumblr_mgsimp6OFN1qei37do1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/7c8b39849997cb45ad8cff8810b6923b/tumblr_mgsimp6OFN1qei37do2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a href="http://ejshaughnessy.tumblr.com/post/40788878906/custom-type-branding-boarder-or-no-boarder-any" class="tumblr_blog" target="_blank">ejshaughnessy</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>Custom type/ branding.

This months cover is pretty hard to ignore with its fantastic photography, makeup/hair design and stand out colour. </p> <p>It makes it clear just how much impact symmetry can have. Some designers can’t stand symmetry but I believe it has its place. </p> <p>I see great design.</p>http://iseegreatdesign.tumblr.com/post/38197387704http://iseegreatdesign.tumblr.com/post/38197387704Mon, 17 Dec 2012 21:51:24 -0500attitude magazineadelaidestreet magazinefashionphotographycoverdesign<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/bc9f067e0984d925f5d2a69bc77536bd/tumblr_mesheuA6Yj1rtbiyto1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a127c697b50e052b4a2f93ad5b497798/tumblr_mesheuA6Yj1rtbiyto2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/9972e5fb6985520a5c42887e326980a4/tumblr_mesheuA6Yj1rtbiyto3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>A menu from Cibo espresso coffee house on Rundle street.
