Papercut
"Minh Anh Vo & Victor Schuft are two French graphic designers, though their names may sound either Vietnamese or German. Minh Anh was born in Annecy and grew up in Paris. Victor comes from Troyes. They met in Brussels, where they studied Graphic Design and Typography at La Cambre School of Arts. After graduating in 2006, they decided to go to Los Angeles to work there and eventually got married at LAX. They are now living and working in Brooklyn"
Together they form Papercut.

Bunch of Stars
Those talented folks over at Bunch Design are to celebrate a year of international contributions for the Star of Bethnal Green campaign, with an exhibition at the Red Gallery in Shoreditch, London.
Based on an identity devised by Bunch in 2008, a traditional long-tailed star was taken and illustrated to create artwork that represented the corresponding months. llustrators were sought out from the furthest reaches of the globe including Guatemala, Iceland, Uganda and Indonesia to celebrate and explore the concept of how stars appear different depending on where in the world you happen to be gazing from. The stars depict a dramatic array of cultural influences, embracing nature, environment, folklore, history and visual arts.
There will be sixteen stars showcased at the exhibition, which opens with a private view on Tuesday 25th May, and runs until Friday 28th May. Limited edition t-shirts and letter pressed posters have been produced to accompany the show. More details can be found here.
