Will Holder and Stuart Bailey/Goodwill, designers.
Blacks, green, red, chrome, polished, coated with lethal thorns, dressed in a rainbow of oil.
Queens-eyed fly, females eat the groom, let him die in overnight, ancient priestesses of the cult. We observe, we are studying, from 300 thousand years walking with us covered by shadows. They are watching us, they are studying us. For more than 300 thousand years walking with us covered by shadows.
They were here before us, they will survive. Pupae, moths, mosquitoes, ticks, bees, beetles, ants. They have beautiful and perfect geometries that come to life. They waited and pondered, have opted for silence. Now the wait is over and the time has come. The human being is a fashion, the future belongs to insect.
Insekta is a collection designed by italian studio Kreativehouse
The entire moodboard is completely inspired by the shapes of insects and their world of color. The drawings, taken from original illustrations by Cristian Grossi, were applied to different supports, to create a collection of unique products: a limited edition set of illustrated notebooks in recovered paper, a set of pins and tees.

When this catalog (which I designed) was published in September of 2010 I dropped off a copy at the tiny cafe that I go to every day (I also do their design). This is what it looks like now.

About Henderson Slab
—
A few bold caps drawn by Albert Du Bois for the 1906 Henderson Sign Painter book started me in the direction of looking at how sign painters approached slabs after the industrial revolution. The usual happened from there. My exercise in the early lettering roots of what eventually became the definition of geometric typography ended up having a life of its own. The majuscules led to minuscules, one idiosyncratic bold weight led to six more, and uprights led to italics. What was kind-of-interesting in the early twentieth century persuaded me to make it interesting enough a century later. This of course meant alternates, swashes, the standard baggage that keeps calling my name.
Henderson Slab is a family of seven weights plus italics, all full of open features and extended Latin language support. Part of this family’s appeal is its coverage of nearly the entire of the slab serif through the last 100 years — the basis is the manual, humanist origins, the swashed forms come right out of the phototypesetting era, and the alternates and mostly modern constructs of contemporary ideas. The result is a set with the ability to function in modern spaces, from corporate to editorial, in text or display, while both winking and nodding at the roots of what is now considered a geometric endeavor.

You can be anywhere in the US today and see an always consistant design program for many, many companies. Signage, packaging, advertising, all are one design direction. A consistant design program is considered essential for a business and usually has its roots in the New Graphic Design movement.
This was not so in pre-WWII US or not too often instantly recognizable. The Europeans led the way to this international clarity, especially the Swiss designers directly after WWII.

A pre-WWII advertisement by Hans Neuburg using a photograph by Anton Stankowski. The young woman is not a glamour symbol but just a healthy looking ordinary person. The whole composition was on the obligue and a bold san serif (probaby akzidenz grotesque) was used along with the company's stylized name in a very simple message.
It was a part of graphic design history.
