> Superb art direction: Suit & Tie, Justin Timberlake & Jay Z



Well I thought we start the week end in style!
Two weeks ago, Timberlake released this beautiful work...
Now I may not be a fan, but regardless of the music, this is what i call a perfect art direction job...
The subtle lighting, the choreography,  the little details, and of course the clothes.
And guess who's behind this, I've just been researching: well it is none other than Mr Tom Ford, whom else?



Well Bravo, very stylish Monsieur Timberlake, Monsieur Ford et Monsieur Jay Z!
Reminds me of our photoshoot from last year, check the images below & the full post: here.

> restaurant identity: The Hangout Beirut

I recently had the chance to work on an interesting project: the visual identity of the yummy place I now hangout in all the time ;-) _ The Hangout !

First this is the logo:
...inspired by this lovely detail in the wrought-iron shed:


Here's a look at the inside of this beautiful mediterranean house:


I worked on the prints of course,


and on the art direction of the food picts,



And last but not least, on the facebook communication that you can follow here, which is really interactive & smart, + it enhances our heritage in a fun way...

So next time you're in Beirut, be sure to check out The Hangout: ask for the Gourmet Burger and a glass of Château Qanafar, you'll thank me later...
