The Greatest Brandversations
Here’s an interesting project about brands by Romania-based Stefan Asafti. “There have always existed disputes among the competing parties, divergent opinions, while the fans of each brand were convinced that theirs was the best product.

Before I die…
I’ve always driven past billboards/ads/posters and eagerly scanned their content for some form of inspiration to bring to my day. But it seems that beer advertisements with half-naked models, realestate billboards with cheesy agents and towering fast food burgers just aren’t cutting it for me.
