Eizo X-Ray Pin-Up Calendar
Just when you thought models could not possibly get any skinnier… Eizo, a manufacturer of medical imaging equipment, has released a revealing new calendar to promote their wares. The Eizo X-Ray Pin-Up Calendar is at once hilarious and inventive, a most creative way of promoting their brand to their clientele and beyond. Hat’s off to BUTTER, the Berlin-based advertising agency who came up with this little stroke of genius for Eizo. [ butter via advertolog ]

we make money not art
We visit art galleries, listen to conferences, cover art and design events, take a lot of pictures, interview creative people, and we document these findings in order to share them with you.One of the most offbeat attractions in the United States, the Seattle Gum Wall is also one of the most germ infected tourist spot in the world. Located in Post Alley, under Park Place Market, the Gum Wall has its beginning in the early 1990s, when people, irritated that they had to wait in line to get tickets to the theater, stuck chewing gum on the wall.

Over the past seven years, at our creative agency, Access , we have worked with a number of residential and commercial property developers from Abu Dhabi to Sydney, helping them with development and strategy.
