Wo Hing General Store

Identities like this for Wo Hing General Store by Manual remind me why I’m still so in love with graphic design. How an idea can be so playful yet look so grown up. A clear idea with razor sharp execution. I wouldn’t expect anything less from the studio headed up by Tom Crabtree. Sterling work!...

1910 are a seriously tight pair of designers from Sweden. They mix minimalist aesthetics with contemporary elements to create a super slick design vision. I can’t fault how they display their work either.
