We are an art and design collective based in Stuttgart, Germany. We, that is Adrian (21), Fabian (21), Marian (20), also known as the Three Ians. Since mid 2008 we study design at the State Academy of Arts Stuttgart. And since we share the same interests and likes we now decided to get together and make this platform where we are going to show you the things we do and create and like. Nous Sommes Des Soleils is a play on words on the french expression “Nous sommes désolés“ which basically means “We are sorry“. Nous Sommes Des Soleils is pronounced the same but indeed means “We are the suns“, which is kind of the opposite. We aren’t sorry, we shine brighter than ever.

The Working Proof seeks to promote art and social responsibility. Each print is paired with a charity of the artist’s choice, to which we are donating 15% of the sale of each print – creating what we believe to be a product with not just aesthetic, but social value. Besides showcasing emerging artists and great artwork, the intent of the Working Proof is to promote a variety of charities and to expose them to new supporters through the appreciation of art and creativity. We release a new print once a week, on Tuesdays at 1:30 pm, EST.

I made this as my costume for Halloween 2009. It was kind of inspired by big-head mode seen in videogames. I really wanted to get the faceted geosphere look with wireframe. Softwares used: 3ds Max 2009, Mudbox 2010, Photoshop CS3, Pepakura.

I always loved rainbows and moustaches and I created this little illustration to thank some of the famous people wearing a stache. The shades of the rainbow are matched with a famous guy: the viking Eric the Red, a mix of sir Conan Doyle and the detective Sherlock Holmes, Merlin the Magician and the mighty Hulk Hogan.

In the early 1980s, at the start of my career, I worked in a print shop with classic lead setting. In those days I would study issues of U&lc magazine. What really caught my attention were letterings in the Spencerian style. I’ve been fascinated by this American penmanship tradition ever since. A few years ago I developed a font. Boris Bencic used it when he was redesigning L’Officiel magazine in Paris. I took these initial forms and developed them into the font Mommie when I started my own foundry. Although I usually design text typefaces, working on Mommie taught me how complex it can be to create a script headline font. Characters need to overlap in harmony and I can’t remember how many versions I did for the caps. The biggest challenge in this process has been to keep it alive and fresh.
