Call it brand pointillisme, if you're into art. You start by selecting a subject that is clearly brand related. Now that's the first hurdle to take. Since what object, place, area, could that be? The smoking area? The parking lot? The supermarket shelves? Then, you'd need a pantone chart, and, I know, these do not come cheap. Stick the colour swatches on the subject, and take a picture. Repeat the same. And in a short period of time, you'll be looking at a collection of moodboards related to your brand. You 'll be amazed by the process as such, but also the final results. Since a good study of the pictures will open your eyes on your brand, the harmonies, even the brand's emotions. But they will also point out the lack of coherence or empathy. 'Reading' the final moodboards, then, can be a bit tricky. Thoughts on a workshop with AD students from the CREA GENEVA school for communication. Read more on www.pantonize.com A never ending book...

We'll be showing design talent out of our database, and from diverse countries. Satellite regulations are that we can't sell on the booth, and the selected designers need to be under 35. Upload your newest work in order to be selected! We're contemplating on having another presence in the city, with our other activities, such as the Touristlab. Addictlab created the much appreciated - well, it seemed - Design Trend Top 2010. And maybe we should do that again. In any way, we'd like to know your thoughts. What do you think will be trends for 2012? General/social/design/ Tweet you're trend using the #addictlab hashtag. Or email us with thoughts & links.

Addictlab organised a competition to create the logo for 'Le Meilleur Du Web' Thoughts on collaborative creation: 'Group thinking sparks responsible solutions. Change R.O.I. from Return On investment to Responsibility Of Innovation. (...) 'What if bringing people together in collaborative processes results in interaction, in surprising or out-of-the-box ideas, but also brings forward a clear wish to create 'for the community'?' 'More than ever, I believe that out of the box thinkers have a huge potential in view of the desired changes for the planet, the way we live together. In that sense, creative minds also have a huge responsibility. Is there potential for a Belgian fashionweek.be? A fashionweek, every week? Sometimes real, when there are activities in Belgium, like Modo in Brussels, or Z33 in Hasselt. Most of the time virtual, showcasing every week talent and inspiration. Interested in helping us build that? Or should we not? Chocolate ideas in our database can be useful for chocolate companies.
