One-off Shirt for Shirty07tag:www.oktokio.com,2007:/blog//4.392007-09-04T02:54:47Z2007-09-04T03:17:36ZWe thought we'd give you a wee sneak'a'peak of the one-off shirt we're sending to Shirty07 for the competition/auction.

Shirty07 for the competition/auction. Not sure if we are actually allowed to show you this image, but I haven't found anything in the rules to say we can't.... hehe. So here you go!
The pic includes the packaging we'll be selling all our shirts in at Shirty07... I'll do another post on the cool packaging a bit later.
Concept: The design actually came from the packages that OK TOKIO will be selling their shirts in at Shirty 07 - we decided to print some A2 posters, fold then sew them up on each side (very much like the ones Made Thought did for their client 'The Mill'), then screen print over the top for that real "limited edition" touch to the Tshirts/packages. The screen print that we've put onto the shirt packages is the same screen we've put on the one-off shirt. And then to top it off, the t-shirt has been embroidered with OK TOKIO 01/01 to give it a 'once-only ever' marking.
Colour/shirt details: We've chosen a charcoal grey in an American Apparel small guys cotton Tshirt. The "OK TOKIO LIMITED EDITION T SHIRT" screen print is in black and the one-off "OK TOKIO 01/01) embroidery is in black and yellow, printed diagonally on the top half of the Tshirt. ]]>

Poketo site when you get a chance - they're really cool. 1st pic is a wallet with Elisa Riera's art and the second pic is of my Poketo wallet by Keri Smith... nice work Poketo. OK TOKIO is looking into making a couple of these wallets with a sweet as 'only ok tokio' design - so look out for them towards the end of the year.

North Kingdom (motion/design group) and Robert Lindstroem's (my design hero and co-founder of North Kingdom) work at Design Chapel - all based in Sweden - how could it get any better?

I bought this camera on the net for $9, it's pretty fricken bottom-of-the-line in so far as it was made to look like an SLR digital camera, and then you pick it up... It weighs almost nothing! and there's nothing requiring power - it's all manual wind on, no zoom, point and shoot basic camera loveliness. Still on the first film, so we'll see if it's actually taking photos when I get the film developed. Look out for em, I'm still looking for a fan club that features these. hehe.]]>
