Inspiration – Jan Kallwejt

Posted on: September 29th, 2009 by Shayne

Jan Feliks Kallwejt is freelance graphic designer and illustrator currently based in Barcelona and Warsaw. He focuses on illustration, apparel design and personal art projects. Simple yet sophisticated forms are the essence of his work. He juxtaposes and multiplies them bringing to life the complex and tricky compositions, spiced up with attention to detail. He usually limits color palette, operating within two or three tones. To render the reality he employs multilayered symbolism, occasionally dropping in a dose of perversion where not expected.

I’m sure every designer has felt creatively drained. I know I get that way designing websites everyday. I wanted to start an inspiration post to help keep those juices flowing. My first inspiration piece displays the work of freelance graphic designer Alex Trochut

A green shoe that isn’t green…

I can definitely say this is the most lightweight shoe I have ever owned. The Rata Plus is super comfy and feel like a little piece of the beach under your feet. They are made of hemp, bamboo, water-based inks, with biodegradable corn lace eyelets, making them eco-friendly and super awesome. I want to buy them in every color.
