Naming and Branding

The V&A and the Design Museum visit

For me going to new places is enough to be exposed to new visuals and new perspectives. and these two were quit inspiring in terms of historical knowledge, which is a necessity for designers to have. The V&A was massively informative; exploring how the politics of the Cold War shaped architecture and design. Reassessing ‘classic’ designs and introducing many little- known objects, this is an original perspective on an era of high tension and creativity.

These are some of my favorite:

Poster: Glory to Soviet Science! Glory to a Soviet Man - the First Cosmonaut!

Poster: Hail to the Red Army - Protectors of the new world

Poster: The police Speak to you every evening at 8pm

Poster: we Will win, venceremos Printed student Poster Mexico, about 1970

Poster: Stop nuclear suicide F.H.K Henrion, issued by the CND Britian, 1963



Storyboard for the bomb release sequence: in Dr Strangelove kenneth Adam (born 1921)

Poster: Olivietti 'Lexikon' Giovanni Pintori, (born 1912) Colour offset print. Designed for Olivetti Spa, Ivrea Italy, 1953.

100 words (i mean 200) for my RSA project!

old people= Larry
young people=Steve


Designing a service, a set of interaction for the elder group in society that is likely to be outside my immediate and everyday experience, that helps giving them a sense of purpose, build relationships, & improving their health and wellbeing.

Will mainly concentrate on bridging the generational gap which is a very important factor, since the model of extended family living together has now almost vanished in the United Kingdom. In fact increased mobility makes it is less likely that generations of the same family will even live in the same geographical area.
The weakening of these ties results in "Larry" and more vulnerable people in particular, falling outside the care and responsibility of their families.

Designing a service that will bring "Larry" and "Steve" together. And ME as a Lebanese, living in an environment which provide another perspective; more or less a greater poverty levels, but still having a strong family & Religious support and networks, so ME will create a service “get together” which will get "Larry" and "Steve" involved!

What is important in this set of interactions is an exchange for both groups. Will provide a comfortable environment for "Larry", and will get to "Steve" the chance of giving, helping, making someone happy, knowing much better about "Larry's" daily experiences, what will hopefully lead him to appreciate the family connections.

This service will not only help bridging the generational gap, and build relationships for lonely "Larry", but also gets the family together by making "Steve" involved in familial events.
