The BIBLIO-MAT

Toronto bookseller The Monkey's Paw wanted to jazz up the experience of selling unwanted literature, so it hired effects whizz Craig Small to design the Bibliomat. With the use of a few levers, pulleys and a telephone bell, he built a vending machine that offers up a random title when you feed it $2.

Rivet

Design: Stephen Bamford - Canada

Virtually every energy drink today is marketed towards youth culture, the kind that wants a quick buzz just to keep the fun going. What about the blue collar worker that just wants to have energy to get the job done or the fisherman that woke up at 3:00AM to get to the best fishing spot? RIVET is for them.

Muskoka Brewery

Design: Rethink - Canada

“A new design was created with a handcrafted, simple, and vintage feel to represent the brewery. All elements of the packaging were then completely re-designed, combining the new logo with unique illustrations and beautiful colours that would really pop on shelves. In addition the IPA was re-branded, introducing Mad Tom as a character that would add personality to the flavourful product.”
