The Boom Box Project

Whoa!
It says the last you guys heard from me was in Feb!
That's mighty long!
Apologies for the delay
and let me make it up to you
with a rather long and fun post!

Titled THE BOOM BOX PROJECT 
(for-a-publically-known-secret-reason)
'twas developed for a very dear friend's
27th birthday!
Though what you will see below
are only the illustrations 
and a little bit of the graphic part,
let me tell you the main bit was the video!
Hell yeah!
The first video shot, edited and published 
by us folks at D4Design!
And perhaps I shall share that with you too
(though not today)

So here we go
(Its the intro which opens the super awesome video I just mentioned.
Imagine it rolling up the screen as in Star Wars,
floating on a galaxy far far away.)
On the 27th Day of January,
Shiva Created

The Dark Knight aka Bad Boy Boomer aka Dada aka DB aka Piku (wtf!)

Episode XXVII

Ticking away the moments
that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours
in an off hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground
in your home town
Waiting for you to turn up
and open the cafe!

Never tire of lying in the sunshine
the sun is the same in a relative way
Turning 27 on the 27th of january
is a sign we say

So bring out the "charms "
and you bring out that bong
Rev that engine
And have a fuckin' AWESOME day!

The CD cover shot #1

The CD cover shot #2

The CD cover shot #3
(Yes that's my thumbprint and the signature D symbol)

The CD cover shot #4
(All open and ready to be seen by the world!)

Mugshot of our very dear friend!
(Sketched with the good ol' pencil, rotrings and put together on 
Photoshop with a few assembled elements to make up a collage)

*ing!
(Yes that is (almost) all the people who feature in the movie)

And below you can see all the characters, 
enlarged in all their glory!
















Ta-da! And finally me as well!


So if you too would like to gift someone 
rather-personalized-heart-wrenchingly-awesome-anything
Get in touch with us!
Coz seriously, everything else is so pass`e!

A Promising 2011

a BIG hello!!
I know I've been missing in action for about two months now!!
Blame it on work and 2011,
which seems to have brought some very interesting projects
my way indeed!

So lets kick start this year's posts with 
our very own cards and letterheads!!
Yup, finally!

D4Design is a multi-disciplinary design consultancy 
that aims to challenge prevalent interaction methods 
using a design methodology that adds a fresh perspective 
to overall scheme of things. 
The focus is to deliver a unique solution, 
underlined with humor if required. 
With a dash of minimalism, 
we like to create 
memorable end products 
that are fun to use. 
If you're looking for strong visual concepts to stir things up, 
do not hesitate to get in touch with us!


Building Identity : 
At D4Design, we believe that fun must be an integral part to something as boring as a serious adult life. We believe in a communication that is simple yet effective. Something that draws from a personal experience. Something with a human touch. Be it for something tangible for consumer goods, or a service, its the part where people connect to it that goes a long way in sustaining the image. We at D4D, draw from just that and aim at creating memorable end products to help you build a truly unique identity. Logo Design, Corporate Identity, Print related material in terms of brochures, mailers,


Graphics & Illustrations :
Be it hand drawn or digital. Be it 50's Joe Bowler style or a unique characterization. Be it a dark grunge look or a funny caricature. At D4Design we take illustrations and graphics as serious as they get. From Mascots, to children's books; from avant-garde styling, to technical product sketches; from ornate textile prints to contemporary digital work; we indulge in everything on the shelf, and then some more! We enjoy working with typography and even at the cost of sounding repetitive, repeat that we aim to provide unique solutions.

Image Editing :
Every Tom down the street can edit an image these days. But what he usually lacks is aesthetic sensibility, the required skill set to deliver what is really expected out of the job. Be it image processing, image editing, image vectorization, our team at D4D using the latest technology & graphic tools, will provide you with amazing one of a kind services at affordable price. 
(the latter is subject to many conditions of course ;-)
